Why people switch from Todoist to Steadily

Planning, not listing

Todoist is a great list manager. But writing 'plan vacation' on a list doesn't get you closer to booking flights before prices spike. Steadily breaks your goal into 20+ sequenced steps automatically.

Start-by dates change everything

Todoist shows due dates. Steadily shows when you need to START each task to finish on time — factoring in dependencies and realistic time estimates.

Demand intelligence is unique

Steadily knows wedding photographers book 12 months out and ski flights spike in November. No to-do list app has this.

Similar price, 10x the intelligence

Todoist Pro is $5/mo. Steadily Pro is $6/mo (annual). For one dollar more you get AI plan generation, backward scheduling, and demand detection.

When Todoist might be the better fit

If you need a lightweight task inbox with 90+ integrations, Slack connectivity, and cross-platform native apps today, Todoist is solid. It's best for people who already know exactly what they need to do and just need a place to track it. If you need help figuring out what to do and when — that's Steadily.

The verdict

Todoist is a reliable task manager. Steadily is an AI planning engine. If your goals are complex — planning a wedding, career change, cross-country move — Steadily builds the plan Todoist expects you to already have.
