Thoughts.do: Actionable Specs

How it works

Capture → Polish → Build. You focus on what matters — we handle the tedious work automatically.

1

Capture

Open the app. Type or speak. Under 5 seconds. Fire-and-forget.

Behind the scenes, AI pulls context from your calendar, GitHub, Linear, Todoist, and other connected sources. It finds hidden connections between your thoughts, groups related notes, and extracts Topics for you to review.

2

Polish

When you have free time, review AI-proposed Topics. We work as your cofounder and assistant — guiding you step-by-step or conversationally to refine ideas into polished specs, PRDs, and actionable plans.

3

Build

Once you're satisfied, click Build. We turn polished plans into reality — generating designs, writing code, and deploying your product. You approve, we build.

Capture in < 5 seconds

Frictionless input via text or voice. Open the app and dump your brain. We handle the rest.

🤖

AI analyzes while you sleep

Context-aware AI aggregates signals from your history, timing, and semantic patterns to transform raw thoughts into structured, actionable specs overnight.

🔗

Push to your tools

Connects to your tools — Linear, Todoist, and a growing list of integrations. Your thoughts flow seamlessly into your existing workflow.

🔒

Local-first, your data stays yours

Your thoughts are private. Encrypted in transit and at rest, never used for training, with full export and delete control. Your data, your rules.

AI That Actually Understands You

Most AI tools just guess. Ours builds a deep understanding of who you are, what you mean, and where each idea fits.

How does Thoughts.do really understand your ideas?

The AI doesn't just look at what you typed. It aggregates context from your connected tools — your calendar, GitHub repos, Linear projects, Todoist tasks, and a growing list of integrations — alongside your capture history, timing signals, and semantic patterns. This multi-source intelligence means it truly understands your world, not just your words.

How does Thoughts.do organize random thoughts into projects?

You dump 50 seemingly random thoughts. Our AI discovers hidden connections between them. "Banana is delicious" + "Convenience store is far" + "Fruit store closes early" → The AI sees a pattern YOU haven't articulated yet: a late-night delivery business opportunity. We don't just tag notes—we synthesize coherent projects from scattered ideas.

"Banana is delicious"
"Convenience store is far"
"Fruit store closes early"
New Topic Detected

Late-Night Fruit Delivery Service

Synthesized from 3 related notes regarding fruit availability and access. Topics become Projects once you review and approve them.
