Capture, hierarchy, dependencies, dates, recurrence, and everything else a task carries.

Quick Capture

⌘ K from anywhere opens a capture box that wins even while you are typing somewhere else. One field and Enter by default, with everything else a switch away.

Feature

Natural-language entry

Type "Call Alex tomorrow at 3pm p1 #sales +Website" and the date, time, priority, tag and project are lifted out of the title and set on the task. Free on every plan.

Feature

The task drawer

Open any task to get its description, subtasks, dependencies, tags, assignee, comments and dates in one panel, without losing your place in the list.

Feature

Subtasks, three levels deep

A task can hold subtasks, and those can hold sub-subtasks. Three levels total, and a parent will not close while a child is still open.

Feature

Dependencies

Mark a task as blocked by another. Blocked cards carry a padlock in Horizon, and the padlock tells you exactly what is in the way.

Feature

Priorities

Five levels, P0 through P4, plus none. P0 is drop-everything and wears a flame; P1 is the one that earns confetti when you finish it.

Feature

Due dates and times

An optional date, an optional time, and a timezone that follows your profile. Overdue and due-soon rows are tinted so you see them without reading them.

Feature

Recurring tasks

Daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly or yearly, every N intervals. The next copy appears when you finish the current one, and it brings the subtasks with it.

Feature

Phases

An admin-defined set of stages for the whole workspace, capped at twenty. They become the tab row on every project page.

Feature

Comments and @mentions

Threaded comments on any task, with @mention autocomplete over workspace members and live updates in every open drawer.

Feature

Moving tasks

Between projects, in or out of a parent, or into another workspace entirely. Subtasks always come along; the workspace move is the one that leaves things behind.

Feature

Multi-select and bulk actions

Select any set of tasks and complete, move, re-date, re-prioritize, delete, or copy them out as Markdown in one go.

Feature

Filters and saved views

Narrow a list by project, priority, due window and tag, then save the combination under a name you will recognize. Free on every plan.

Feature

Undo

⌘ Z takes back the last reversible action for about six seconds. A toast offers the same thing with a button, for people who do not think in keyboard shortcuts.
