I write 20 tasks a day and finish 3. So I built an AI that just tells me to do 3.
Hey 👋
I write to-do lists like it's a hobby. Every morning I'd open my notes and just go — groceries, emails, that thing from last week, clean the apartment, research this, call that person, oh and also learn a new skill by Friday. Like 15-20 things every day.
And then I'd finish maybe 2 or 3 and feel like I failed.
It took me a while to realize the problem wasn't me. It was that I kept giving myself an impossible list and then being surprised when I couldn't do it all.
So I built Solhora. It's an AI that chats with you in the morning. You tell it everything on your mind — all 20 things — and it helps you sort through the noise and pick 3. It checks your calendar, what you didn't finish yesterday, and anything you brain dumped the night before, then asks if you want to put any of it on today's list.
That's basically it. You brain dump, it helps you organize, you pick 3, you go.
Oh and at night when you're lying in bed going "oh shit I forgot about —" you can just tell it and it brings it up tomorrow morning.
A few rules we baked in:
- 3 tasks a day. If you do all 3, that's a great day.
- No streaks. Nobody needs that pressure.
- Nothing auto-rolls to tomorrow. Clean slate every morning, you decide.
Solhora checks your calendar, what you didn't finish yesterday, and anything you brain dumped the night before — then asks you in the morning if you want to put any of it on today's list.
Curious — for people who've tried a bunch of productivity apps and dropped them all: what was the thing that made you quit each time?
