What it does

Notes and tasks, together

Create tasks right inside your notes as you write, and they show up in your day automatically.

Your tasks on a board

See all your tasks as a Kanban board. Name your own columns, drag a card to move it, and anything overdue stands out.

Projects when you need them

When something needs a little more organisation, create a self-contained project. Its brief, notes, tasks and links stay together, its milestones keep their dates in front of you, and its tasks run as a list or a Kanban board.

Save a site and tag it kitchen, and it joins the note and task about the kitchen. One tag vocabulary, everywhere.

Capture from anywhere

Type it. Say it. Forward an email to your own private capture address. It becomes a task before you have finished reading it.

Focus, one thing at a time

What you need to do today appears on a dark screen, one task at a time. See what you said done would look like, do the thing, then see where the hour actually went.

It installs like an app, without an app store

We don’t have an app yet, but it’s in development. In the meantime, add Continuo from the browser you are already in, and it takes its own icon on the home screen, opens full screen, and stays signed in.

Free

£0

No card. No trial clock.

  • 100 notes
  • 3 active projects — archived ones cost nothing
  • Unlimited tasks, because a task list with a ceiling is not one
  • Links, tags and search, none of them counted
  • Export, always

Paid

£2 a month

Or £20 a year — save £4.

  • Notes and projects, uncapped
  • Meeting transcripts summarised into notes

  • Cancel whenever; your writing leaves with you

No tiers, no seats, nothing held back for a plan above it. Go over a ceiling and nothing is hidden or deleted — you simply stop adding until you are back under, or you subscribe.

Made for one person at a time

I’ve tried almost every productivity app out there, and I could never find one that really suited me. They either felt bloated or too expensive for what they actually provided.

That’s what inspired me to create Continuo.

Think of it as if Notion, Todoist and Asana had a love child, built to help you stay organised across both work and home, without making organisation feel like another task in itself.

I built it for my own needs, and I hope you find it useful too.

I also built Promptzilla 3000, for writing and testing AI prompts before they ship — promptzilla3000.com
