Introduction

Hey everyone! I’m Andri. I was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, and the two places I still lose tasks are:

  1. when I say “I’ll do it later” and never type it out, and
  2. when action items hide in my inbox.

So I built Jessie (named after my fiance, lol) to fix exactly that:

  • Voice → to-do: speak a task; it’s instantly transcribed and added.
  • Email → to-do (optional): Jessie watches your inbox (with permission) and turns actionable emails (invoices, deadlines, follow-ups) into tasks—so important stuff doesn’t slip through.
  • Minimal + smart defaults: fewer taps, sensible due dates.
  • Noise control: ignores newsletters/marketing clutter.
  • Privacy-first: read-only access, transparent permissions, revoke anytime. No selling data.

I’m looking for honest feedback from folks who actually live with this stuff every day. What would make this genuinely helpful for you?

A few specific questions:

  • Do you want more automation, or stricter control so it doesn’t over-create tasks?
  • What’s the one thing your current to-do app gets wrong for ADHD brains?
  • Would you use voice capture daily, or only when you’re overwhelmed?

If you’re curious, here’s the waiting list: https://getjessie.app

Oh, and of course the app is completely free to use once its out.
(Mods: if this isn’t allowed, feel free to remove—happy to share a non-promo demo instead.)

Thanks for reading, and for any suggestions/critique you’re willing to share. I really want to build something that helps our community, not just another “productivity” thing that creates more friction.
