Add tasks from one sentence
Type like you talk and the AI splits it into tasks with dates, times, tags and priority.
“Team sync 3pm tomorrow, report due Friday” → 2 tasks with deadlines
AI task manager — Focus on what matters.
Don't let your to-do list run your day. DonDon helps you organize work, goals, and habits intelligently — so you stay focused on what creates the most value. AI helps too: add tasks from one sentence, break big work into steps, and auto-schedule your day or week.
AI handles the busywork — you make the decisions
Add tasks from one sentence, break big work into steps, auto-schedule your week and get a weekly review. You bring your own AI (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Ollama), so you control the cost and your data.
Turn scattered thoughts into a list
Write down everything on your mind, in any order. The AI turns it into a tidy list with the most important things first.
“renew passport, call mom, finish Q3 slides…” → an ordered list
Break big work down
The AI suggests concrete steps with a time estimate for a complex task. On Premium the steps become subtasks.
“Launch the landing page” → 6 steps, about 5 hours
Premium
Auto-schedule
The AI places your unscheduled tasks into the calendar view you are looking at (today, tomorrow, week, month). Habits come first, then tasks by priority. It estimates how long each task takes and keeps your breaks free.

Designed to help you work better every day
Start with clear tasks. Layer calendar, habits, and goals when you're ready to go deeper.
Task management — flexible for how you actually work
Every to-do lives in one workspace. Set priority, tags, and lists so you know what comes first; break work into subtasks when a big item needs smaller steps. Switch between Kanban, Matrix, and Timeline depending on whether you need the big picture or the fine details.

- Subtasks break complex work into steps, with AI-suggested steps
- Kanban, Matrix, and Timeline — switch views in one tap

Calendar & time-block — know when work happens
Drag tasks onto your calendar to time-block without leaving the workspace. Switch between Today, week, and month views — see your full workload in one place before the day starts.
- Time-block by dragging tasks into time slots
- Today, week, and month views in one module

- Plan your day without switching apps
- AI places tasks into your free time slots
AI auto-schedule — a plan in one click

You preview and adjust before anything is applied.
- Plans the view you are on: today, tomorrow, week or month
- Habits first, then tasks by priority
- AI estimates each task's time and avoids the breaks you set
- Preview, untick any item, and undo

Frequently asked questions
Why DonDon is built this way — and how to get started.
-
Why does DonDon link Goals to daily tasks?
Checklists can keep you busy without real progress. DonDon lets you set week, month, or year goals and link subtasks — so daily work moves toward bigger outcomes. -
How do achievements and streaks help productivity?
DonDon unlocks badges as you complete tasks, keep habit streaks, and hit goal milestones — light gamification that makes progress visible instead of just checking boxes. -
How is Focus + sounds different from a standalone timer?
Pomodoro in DonDon attaches directly to the task you're doing — timer, short/long breaks, and progress ring in the same workspace. Optional focus soundscapes and celebration sounds when you finish, so focus sessions stay part of your workflow. -
What problem does the pet companion solve?
Many people forget tasks because they don't open the app. The pet companion is a desktop mascot that appears when tasks or habits are due — gentle on-screen nudges and celebrations when you finish, without switching windows. -
How does natural-language quick-add work?
Type like you speak — e.g. "Team sync 3pm tomorrow #work" — and DonDon parses time, tags, and lists automatically. No multi-step forms; Vietnamese and English supported in the input field. -
How do DonDon's AI features work, and do they cost extra?
AI is optional and off by default. Turn it on in Settings and enter an API key from the provider you choose (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or an OpenAI-compatible server such as Ollama). DonDon doesn't provide a model, so there is no AI fee from us; your provider bills you for usage. On Free you get task creation from one sentence, turning thoughts into a list, extracting tasks from notes and the weekly review. AI auto-schedule and AI subtasks need Premium. -
Where does my data go when I use AI?
Only what the action needs (for example the sentence you typed, or the titles and due dates of tasks to schedule) goes straight from your device to the AI provider you chose, never through DonDon servers. Your API key stays on your device. Every suggestion is shown for review and nothing is saved until you confirm. -
How does AI auto-schedule plan my work?
Pick a Calendar view (Today, Tomorrow, This week, This month). The AI places that view's unscheduled tasks into free time: habits first, then tasks by priority. It estimates how long each task takes and avoids your existing events and the breaks you set (12:00–13:00 and 17:00–20:00 by default). You preview the plan, untick anything you don't want, then apply — and you can undo. -
Which platforms can I use with one account?
Full-featured web app, Windows & macOS desktop with Quick Add popup (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows, ⌘⇧Space on macOS) — one workspace, synced across devices. -
Is DonDon paid?
DonDon offers a Free plan to get started and Premium when you need more features. See full pricing
