Understanding emotions to transform productivity
This is more than a tagline - it's our core philosophy.
Traditional task managers treat work as emotionless. Check boxes, set deadlines, move on. But that's not how humans function. Every task carries emotional weight - some energize us, others drain us, and patterns emerge that we often don't notice until burnout hits.
As a neurodivergent person with ADHD traits and autistic features, I've always struggled with traditional productivity systems. They track tasks, but not how those tasks affect you. I built To-Do Emote because I needed a way to put things in order and understand how my work affects my energy and emotions. I realized I'm probably not the only one. So I decided to share it.
To-Do Emote flips the script. By tracking emotions alongside tasks, we help you discover:
Our Machine Learning algorithms analyze these patterns, finding correlations humans miss. All processing happens locally on your device - your emotional data is deeply personal and stays private.
Burnout doesn't happen overnight. By tracking emotional trends, you spot warning signs weeks before crisis hits.
Learn which tasks energize you and schedule them strategically. Batch draining tasks when you're strongest.
Understand yourself better. Discover unconscious patterns in how different work affects your wellbeing.
Make career and project choices based on data about what actually makes you thrive, not just what pays well.
To-Do Emote is designed for anyone who wants to work smarter by understanding their emotional patterns. Especially valuable for:
Writers, developers, analysts, researchers - people who do mentally demanding work and feel emotional exhaustion more than physical fatigue.
People with ADHD, autism, or other neurodivergent traits who benefit from explicit emotion tracking and pattern visualization.
Solo workers managing their own schedules who need to understand which clients/projects affect their wellbeing.
Academic work is emotionally taxing. Track how different subjects, study methods, and deadlines affect stress levels.
People who prioritize work-life balance and mental health, using tools to maintain sustainable productivity.
Anyone exploring what type of work truly suits them - data on emotional responses helps inform career pivots.
To-Do Emote is built with carefully chosen technologies that prioritize performance, privacy, and user experience:
Powerful ecosystem for data analysis and ML without compromising on desktop performance.
Modern, native Windows interface that feels professional and responsive.
Industrial-grade local storage - 100x faster than JSON, zero-config, battle-tested.
