Margin
Your task manager that continuously decides what comes next.
Most task apps store your list and make you sort it. Margin decides for you. Dump everything in, plain text or voice. Margin sizes each task, ranks your day, and hands you the order: what to do first, what fits, what can wait. You open it and start. What is different: a deterministic engine does the ranking, not a black box, so every reorder comes with one plain sentence explaining why. Nothing you set is quietly overridden. It notices what keeps slipping instead of letting it rot at the bottom.
For years I ran my entire life out of a paper notebook. Every morning I rewrote the list. Every afternoon I rewrote it again, because the day had moved. One day I timed it out of curiosity: 127 minutes in a single day spent deciding what to do next, and not one of those minutes spent actually doing any of it.
I tried the apps. Every one of them wanted more from me than the notebook did. Estimate this. Tag that. Pick a priority from four options that all mean "soon." The work before the work just moved to a screen and got a nicer font.
So I built Margin. You dump everything in, plain text or voice, and it decides your day for you: what's first, what fits, what can wait. You open it and start.
The one decision I'm most glad I made: the ranking is a deterministic engine, not an AI guessing. AI reads what you wrote and sizes it, but it never touches the order, so the list is consistent and every reorder comes with one plain sentence telling you why. You glance and trust it, or you override it. No black box deciding your day behind your back.
I use it every single day. I'm the reason every field you'd have to fill in isn't there.
Happy to answer anything, and I'd genuinely love your honest feedback on where it breaks.
"The work before the work just moved to a screen and got a nicer font" is the truest line I have read on this site. That sentence is why I quit every task app I ever tried.
The decision I respect most is keeping the AI on sizing and off the ordering. Anything that rearranges my day has to be able to tell me why in a sentence I can argue with, or I stop trusting it by Wednesday and go back to a notebook. Building the boring deterministic engine is harder and demos worse than letting a model guess, and you did it anyway.
One question: when something keeps slipping, does Margin call it out as "this has moved four days running, kill it or do it," or does it just quietly float it higher? The calling-out is the part no notebook ever did for me.
Congrats on shipping, RaSheem. 127 minutes a day is a real number and you built the thing that gives them back.
