PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Todoist today announced the general availability of Todoist Ramble, a new AI–powered way to capture tasks by simply speaking in the task management app used by over 50 million people. Built by a lean, AI–leveraged team, Ramble converts natural, unstructured speech into clean, organized tasks with details such as projects, dates, deadlines, priorities, and duration — helping individuals and teams get ideas out of their heads and into action faster than typing.
Ramble is designed for fast-capture moments when thoughts move faster than fingers, such as walking between meetings, commuting home, or juggling life and work. Users tap the Ramble waveform icon, speak normally, and Todoist generates a structured list. Ramble supports simple voice edits during capture (for example, “Actually, make that Thursday” or “that’s all”) and updates the tasks in real time.
“The best capture method is the one you’ll actually use,” said Amir Salihefendić, Doist Founder and CEO. “People often think in unstructured fragments. Ramble captures those ideas as they happen and turns them into actionable tasks in Todoist with no special syntax or mental overhead required.”
Built for teams, too
In Todoist for Teams, Ramble makes it easy to capture follow–ups, client requests, and updates while moving between meetings. In a single session, tasks can be added to both Personal and Team workspaces; Ramble routes each item to the correct project, assignee, and date based on what’s spoken, keeping shared lists up to date without typing.
AI approach and infrastructure
Ramble runs on Todoist Assist and is among the first production deployments in the productivity space to use Google’s Gemini 2.5 Flash Live model via Vertex AI for real–time speech understanding. As users speak, audio streams to Doist’s backend, where the model transcribes the speech and the system parses intent and entities (e.g., projects, assignees, dates, recurring rules, priorities, and durations) to generate tasks. The model issues structured tool calls to create, update, or remove tasks in real time. The service operates with low latency across iOS, Android, and desktop.
Security and privacy, by design
Todoist is SOC 2 Type II certified with enterprise–grade security and privacy controls. When using Ramble, audio is processed securely and is never stored or used for model training.
Early adoption and quality
Todoist Ramble entered public beta on November 19, 2025. Within three weeks, 76,000 users completed approximately 290,000 Ramble sessions across desktop and mobile. End-to-end task creation success improved from ~40% in October 2025 to ~62% in December 2025, reflecting better handling of real-world speech patterns and edge cases. Among new users on the Beginner plan who used Ramble in their first week, upgrade rates were approximately five times higher than baseline.
Availability
Ramble is available in Todoist on all plans across iOS, Android, and desktop (macOS, Windows, and web) and supports 38 languages. The Beginner plan includes limited sessions per month. Pro and Business (Todoist for Teams) include unlimited sessions; standard rate limits may apply. Platform shortcuts include home/lock screen access on iOS and app shortcuts, widgets, and quick settings tiles on Android.
