A voice-first to-do list that turns what you say into organized tasks, asks when unsure, and plans your day.

Voice Capture: Say one or several tasks with a shortcut and review what Foley understood before the tasks are added.
Clarifying Questions: When a request could match more than one task, Foley asks which you mean rather than making a bad guess.
Daily Desk and Calendar: See tasks from every project in one place and move times or details by simply saying so.
AI Day Planning: Ask Foley to plan your day around existing tasks and follow the plan back to the work.
Projects and Folders: Group work and life into folders and projects that hold tasks and context.
Task Context: Attach notes and files and model dependencies such as one task blocking another.
Capture History with Undo: Keep the original words beside what Foley changed and undo any capture.
Bring Your Own AI Key: Choose Foley-managed AI or connect a personal key and control which projects AI can use as context.

Hands-free Task Entry: Dictate several to-dos in one sentence instead of typing each.
Rescheduling by Voice: Say 'change the review to 4 PM' to update a task without opening it.
Daily Planning: Have Foley build a plan from the day's tasks.
Project Dependencies: Track what blocks what, e.g. an invoice waiting on a board deck.
Shared Projects: Share a project with teammates so tasks and comments stay together.
Shopping and Packing Lists: Keep simple checklists and add items by voice.
