Todoist alternative

Done vs Todoist

The AI-native Todoist alternative — where tasks don't just get tracked, they get done.

Todoist is one of the most popular to-do apps, and its natural-language capture set the standard. Done keeps that fast capture, then adds the piece Todoist doesn't: you can assign a task to an AI agent that actually does the work and reports back — instead of just reminding yourself to do it later.
