24 alternatives to tickk
Hey HN, I built tickk because I have ADHD and every productivity app felt like work. I'd have an idea, open an app, then spend 5 minutes deciding if it's a "task" or a "note" or which project it belongs to. By then, the thought was gone. What it does: - Talk into your phone/laptop → it transcribes and auto-categorizes into tasks, notes, or events - Uses local NLP (compromise.js) - no data leaves your device - Works offline, no account needed, completely free The key insight: Capture first, organize later.

Hi HN! First time posting. I created a tool for my Autistic son who is in high school junior battling severe ADHD symptoms. His difficulties include; 1. Time blindness 2.

In addition he also has the boilerplate ADHD accommodations(2X time on tests and quiet place to take the test). These collectively improved his test taking abilities. But, when it came to his…

Hey HN, I built MindDraft because I was tired of task apps that made ME do all the work. After 18 months of solo development, I'm sharing it here. *What's different:* 1. Location-based reminders - "Buy groceries" alerts when you're near a grocery store, not at an arbitrary time. Uses iOS geofencing. 2. Smart Actions - Tasks have action buttons. "Call dentist" → tap to call. "Pay rent" → opens payment app. Tasks become actions, not just reminders. 3. Task → Expense - Complete "Buy laptop $1200" and it auto-logs as an expense. No separate expense app. 4. Natural language AI - "Meeting with…
