I just tested 2 very general questions (in french) and compared the results to the tool cited by the other comment, and I prefer the answers from yours, they are more precise. The other tool allows to iterate the process on each step so maybe it compensate.

The questions were too general to conclude on the effectiveness of the answers but I suspect anyway that just asking the question and reading several small steps may be enough to trigger the initiation of the task.

Anyway I'm bookmarking it :)

Hi Ananth,

This looks very promising however every attempt at a demo ended with a server 500 error in the console. I also was put off by the warning from google that the site has permission to permanently delete all of my google calendars when signing up just to try the site. https://imgur.com/a/uoR0frO

That video on the homepage sounds so uncanny and weird. Give it a watch and you'll see what I mean. Was this produced with AI?

Looks great!

Excited to try it this week.

Is there a plan to monetize? I understand server costs are low now, but with any volume that could change.

On signup it says „login with gmail“. „login with google“ would be more accurate, since workspace accounts also work.

I love Voxtodo, and I've been following its journey for a while. I'm glad to see it's come so far.

This app doesn't work at all. Signed up, entered a todo item and it errored out.
