Checkvist
Keyboard-driven online outliner and task list
What is Checkvist?
Checkvist is a web-based outliner and task manager designed to be run from the keyboard. Lists nest to any depth and carry due dates, tags, notes and Markdown formatting, and they can be shared privately or published. The free account has no limit on lists or sharing, and the PRO plan adds repeating tasks, task assignment, Google Calendar sync and file storage.
Checkvist has a free plan. Paid plans start at $3.9 per person / month, with $39/year shown as the yearly price. See every plan
Good for
- People who would rather not take their hands off the keyboard
- Outlining projects, research notes and checklists in nested lists
- Publishing or sharing a checklist and following its progress
Worth knowing
- There are no native desktop or mobile apps. Phones use an offline-capable progressive web app at m.checkvist.com.
- Repeating tasks, task assignment, Google Calendar sync, due reminders and file storage all need PRO.
- Subscriptions are quarterly or yearly. The pricing page shows $3.9 a month and $39 a year without saying which billing the monthly figure applies to.
- The PRO team plan, with user management and group access rights, is marked as coming soon.
Key features
- Keyboard-driven commands
- Actions run from short key combinations, such as dd for a due date or ll for lists, and pressing Shift twice opens a command palette for everything else.
- Endless hierarchy with focus
- List items nest without limit. You can expand to a chosen level, focus (hoist) on one branch, sort a list or branch, and filter the list as you type.
- Markdown, notes and links
- Items take Markdown formatting, code and tables, with notes, links and backlinks, image previews and file attachments. File storage of 2 GB comes with PRO.
- Sharing and publishing
- Lists are shared privately or publicly, by email or link, read-only or with write access, and can be embedded in a webpage. Passwords and link expiry need PRO.
- Due dates, repeats and calendar sync
- Due dates accept smart syntax such as +4d. Repeating tasks, due task reminders and two-way Google Calendar sync are part of PRO.
- Email, clipper and open API
- Tasks can be added by email or with the Web Clipper for Chrome and Firefox. An open API and Zapier connect other apps, and PRO adds Save from Slack.
