A Todoist alternative that unifies tasks and a real calendar in one view.
Todoist is the most mature to-do app on the market. It added an AI Assistant for Pro users recently. But it's still a tasks app with a calendar feature — Planifai is calendar-native with tasks and conversational AI chat, free.
