Remlo has one rule: write it down first, organize later. Here are the workflows that
make it stick: capture, tasks, habits, Pencil, and handing a task to your AI.
Launch plan
Bits to sort before the launch — writing them down so they stop rattling around.

Both are quick. The bank one just needs their reference number to hand.
Everything else can wait until that clears. #admin

Start the day with a clear head
Open Today and write everything down: tasks, ideas, loose ends. The daily note holds it all, and every checkbox you type is already a task.
Open Today, the daily note is ready
Write everything down, checkboxes included
Each checkbox is already on your list
Build a habit
Pick a cadence and check it off. The streak and the momentum chart show the trend over weeks, not just today.
Create a habit
Set how often it should happen
Check it off and the chart tracks the trend
Sketch and draw with Pencil
On iPad, think by hand. Touch the Pencil to a note and a drawing block opens where you were writing, so the sketch sits inline with the words around it.
Open a note on iPad
Draw with Apple Pencil, right in the page
The ink stays in the note and syncs with it
Hand a task off
Open a to-do, long press it on the phone or right click on the Mac, and choose Paste to chat. Pick the app. It opens with the task and the notes under it already written out.
Open a to-do
Long press on the phone, right click on the Mac
Choose Paste to chat, then pick Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini
Let an agent take the queue
Create an agent once, with a folder it works in and a short description of how it should behave. Assign to-dos to it. On the Mac, press Run in Terminal and the work starts there.
Create an agent and give it a folder
Assign the to-dos it should handle
Press Run in Terminal on the Mac
Write tasks while you think
Drop a checkbox into any note and it becomes a real to-do automatically, so you capture tasks mid-thought without leaving what you were writing.
Type a "- [ ]" checkbox in any note
Keep writing, it is already a task
Find it later in your to-do list
Move work across a board
Some tasks sit in progress. Some wait on someone else. The board runs on stages you define, so it matches how your work actually moves.
Open the board view
Name the stages that fit your work
Drag a task across as it moves
A week with Remlo, in three moves.
Write
Capture all week by keyboard on any device, or by Pencil on iPad. No sorting required.
Connect
Link notes to the tasks they relate to. The graph builds itself as you write.
Act
Once a week, look at what gathered, pick the things that matter, and act with the context already attached.
How-to, answered
How do I capture a quick note in Remlo?
Open Remlo and start typing. Today’s page is already there with the cursor in it, and on Mac the ⌘K palette jumps you to any note or a new one without leaving the keyboard. It finds words inside your notes, not only their titles. You never have to pick a folder or project before capturing.
Can I use Remlo for GTD or a weekly review?
Yes. Capture everything as it comes, link related notes and tasks, and review once a week. Remlo is structured enough for GTD without forcing the whole methodology on you.
How do I schedule a task I wrote in a note?
From the note. A slash command sets the task to today, tomorrow, or a date you pick, and to-dos also carry a due date and a someday flag. Anything scheduled or due shows up in the Today view.
Does Remlo work offline?
Yes. Remlo is a native app, so capturing and editing work offline and sync through iCloud automatically when you are back online.
Can I rename the columns on the board?
Yes. The stages on the board are yours to define. Rename them, add the ones your work needs, and drop the ones it does not.
Do tasks I write in notes show up automatically?
Yes. Type a checkbox in any note and Remlo adds it to your to-do list automatically. Tasks also live on a board with stages you define, so you can track what is moving and what is stuck.
Give your mind one place.
Remlo is on the App Store for Mac, iPhone and iPad. The first 7 days are free.
