Get it out of your head.

Capture from anywhere: Quick Entry, Siri, the share sheet, or a whole paragraph typed in plain language.

See what matters today.

Each morning, today's plan arrives as cards you accept, defer, or skip.

Keep every project moving.

Projects, tags, defer and due dates, repeats, and custom views that show only what you can do next.

Review without the dread.

Before your weekly review, Flume reads every project and flags the stalled ones.

A copilot that asks first.

Pilot drafts your plan and sorts your inbox, and nothing changes until you tap yes.

Email, sorted into action.

A full mail client for Gmail, Outlook, or any IMAP account that turns your inbox into next actions and tracks the replies you're waiting on.

Eight icons.

Switch any time in Settings.

Where your data goes.

In your iCloud

Tasks sync through your own iCloud account. There's no Flume server holding them.

Suggestions wait for you

Pilot can read anything in Flume, but every change it proposes waits for your tap.

A way back

Changes, Pilot's included, can be undone. Deleted items wait in Recently Deleted, and you can export a full backup whenever you like.

The engine is free.
