Every task app
shows you
everything.

You open your to-do list and see thirty things. You spend ten minutes deciding where to start. You pick the easiest one.

By end of day, nothing important moved.

“Crux fixes the decision,
not the list.”

See it in action

01

Dump everything

Brain-dump every task, idea, and nagging thought into the inbox. No structure needed. Get it out of your head.

02

Pick your energy

Tell Crux if you want quick wins, anything, or a real challenge. It surfaces the one task matched to what you can do right now.

03

Do it. Move on.

Complete, skip, or snooze. Crux rotates to the next thing. No guilt, no backlog spiral. One thing at a time, all day.

What users say

I stopped dreading my task list. Now I just open Crux and do the one thing it shows me.

The energy matching is surprisingly accurate. On low-energy days it doesn't throw a 3-hour task at me.

Finally an app that understands the real problem isn't tracking tasks — it's choosing which one to do.
