A daily to-do app for scattered minds

Some days you do one thing.
That still counts.

Tackled is a tiny, fast Mac app built to catch what's in your head before it slips away — and it never punishes you for a slow day. No streaks to break. No guilt for adding a task. Just momentum, and momentum only goes up.

The real momentum meter, from the real app. Watch it — it only ever fills.

Not another streak app.

Streaks break. And when they break, most apps make you feel like you failed. Tackled doesn't have streaks — it has momentum, and adding a task never costs you progress.

Other to-do apps

  • A streak that resets to zero the moment you miss a day
  • Your progress bar drops every time you add a task
  • Time tracking that feels like surveillance
  • One inbox for tasks and every stray thought

Tackled

  • Momentum that never retreats — no streak to lose
  • Adding a task never shrinks what you've already done
  • An optional focus timer — nothing ever logged
  • Brain farts 💭 — a separate home for stray thoughts

Built for how your brain actually works

Four small tools, each doing exactly one job.

Capture anywhere

⌥Space opens a quick-capture card over whatever you're doing. Type it, hit enter, forget it — Tackled remembers so you don't have to.

⌥ SPACE
🎯

Focus mode

One task, full screen, nothing else. It opens on the task you've been avoiding longest — restart what you're avoiding.

💭

Brain farts

Stray thoughts aren't tasks. Park them in their own inbox, search them later, and get back to what you were doing.

🌙

Calm mode

Tackled celebrates wins — confetti, sound, a little sparkle. If that's not what you need today, dial it back with one tap.

A day, tackled

The actual shape of using it, start to finish.

01

Capture

⌥Space, type, hit enter. It's on today's list before the thought can slip away.

02

Focus

Pick one thing, or let Tackled pick for you. Everything else disappears.

03

Tackle it

Check it off. The momentum meter fills in — it never asks you to explain the rest of the list.

04

Tomorrow

Unfinished things wait for you, no guilt attached. Start again whenever you're ready.

Give your brain somewhere to put things down.

A native Mac app, built to be yours — no account, no server.
