School emails become tasks automatically
Forward a school newsletter to your personal address. AI reads it, extracts every deadline and action item, and builds a color-coded task list — organized by child and urgency. You review before anything is added.

How it works
Sign up, forward one email, and your task list builds itself. No manual entry. No app store.
You forward the email
Set up forwarding to your personal School Task Agent address. Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail — all work. No school IT team needed.
AI strips the noise
Marketing footers, tracking pixels, and boilerplate are removed. Only the meaningful school content reaches the pipeline.
Deadlines are extracted
Temporal markers, action verbs (sign, bring, return), and event nouns are identified and structured automatically.
You approve — it's added
Proposed tasks land in your review inbox. See the original email alongside the AI's extraction. Approve, edit, or dismiss.
Built for busy families
Every design decision reduces the mental load of managing school life.
Color-coded per child
Each child gets a persistent color tag assigned during setup. Tasks from different grades are instantly distinguishable — no need to read a single label. Inspired by the visual disambiguation pioneered by ParentBridge.
You approve before it's added
Nothing lands on your task list without your say-so. Low-confidence extractions are flagged. No hallucinated deadlines.
List and Kanban views
Toggle between a grouped urgency list and a full Kanban board. Switch with one tap — preference saved automatically.
Completeness meter
A progress bar at the top of your dashboard shows how many tasks are done. It transitions from cyan to bright green as you complete tasks — the Zeigarnik Effect in action, proven to drive task completion and reduce cognitive anxiety.
Runs automatically, 3× a day
The pipeline runs at 7 AM, noon, and 6 PM. Supports multiple schools and grades — all in one dashboard.
You stay in control
Every AI extraction goes through a human review step before it touches your task list. See the original email. Edit any field. Approve only what's right.
