Product preview

Overview
Things is Todoist if the AI is the enemy: a list that looks designed, no parse, no chat. TickTick has a brain; this refuses one.
It will not break down a project for you. It will make Today feel like a decision. If Apple tasks should look good, this is the list. If you want NL, Todoist.

Leaving Todoist for taste
Bottom line
The anti-chatbot list — Things if Today should look designed, Todoist if it should parse.
