Key features
FacileThings
- GTD workflow built into the app
- The capture, clarify, organize, reflect and engage stages of GTD are embedded in the system, with contextual help and a tutorial for people new to the method.
- Purpose, goals and areas of focus
- Daily tasks can be aligned with the purpose, goals and areas of focus you define for your personal and professional life.
- Guided reviews and planning
- Guided tools cover the Weekly Review and the Mind Sweep, and Project Natural Planning is described as AI-assisted.
- Google and Outlook calendars together

- Reference storage and statistics
- Each account has 5GB for reference files and can connect to email, Evernote, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox and Box. Statistics track your activity over time.
Nirvana
- Built-in GTD lists
- To-dos move between Inbox, Next, Waiting, Scheduled and Someday lists, and a Focus list collects the ones you star for attention now.
- Projects, areas and reference lists
- Projects group related to-dos, areas of focus separate parts of your life, and reference lists hold material that is not actionable. Basic accounts cap all three.
- Tags, contexts and filters
- Filter to-dos by tags, areas, contacts, energy and time required to see what is practical for where you are and how much time you have.
- Capture and Focus by email
- Forwarding an email to your Nirvana address turns it into a to-do, and the Focus list can be emailed to you on chosen days of the week.
- Scheduled and recurring to-dos
- Scheduled to-dos stay out of the actionable lists until their start date, and due dates can be set on to-dos and projects. Recurring to-dos need Pro.
- AI assistant and MCP server
- A built-in assistant, in beta for Pro early-access members, runs guided reviews. An MCP server lets clients such as Claude and ChatGPT read and create tasks; updating them needs Pro.
