DuckyHelper in Todoist

DuckyHelper sees Todoist on your screen and, in early access, works in it with its own cursor to create and update tasks, organize projects and sections, manage labels and comments, track completed tasks, and check productivity stats. It's built to ask before it sends or pays, and explains or draws on Todoist when you want to learn it.

Try asking
  • “Find the tasks and create a comment”
  • “Create a label in Todoist”
  • “Show me how to add a task”

Press fn (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux) and ask out loud. Doing the work for you is early access on Mac.

BUILT TO ASK FIRST

It's built to wait for your OK in Todoist.

When a job ends in “Create a comment”, it does the work, and is built to stop with it ready. You see exactly what it wrote and where it goes, then Send, Edit or Deny.

It works in Todoist signed in as you. If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself: it's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.

MAKE IT ALWAYS ON

Do it once. Then let it repeat.

When it's done, it offers to keep doing it: whenever a new task is added in Todoist, it does it again on its own.

Each run is still built to ask before it sends or pays. Turn it off or change it any time in Work › Automations.
