The future of FacileThings is local-first

For over a year we've been rebuilding FacileThings from scratch. The same GTD workflow you rely on, running on an entirely new local-first architecture. Here's what we're building, and why we think it's important.

Cloud convenience. Local speed. One app

We're building a new FacileThings from the ground up on local-first software principles. A copy of your data lives on your device, so the app feels instant, keeps working without a connection, and still syncs everywhere the moment you're back online.

It's the same authentic GTD method you already trust (what our users tell us they value most) rebuilt to be faster, simpler, and far more pleasant to use every day.

What local-first buys you

Offline work

Your data lives on your device. Capture, clarify, organize and engage with no connection at all.

Instant performance

Almost no server round-trips means every click, every list, every thing you do, feels immediate.

Fully reactive

Edit on your phone, watch it update instantly on your laptop. No need to refresh, ever.

Synced everywhere

Every device stays in step the moment you're back online. Automatic sync among all your devices.

This same architecture is also what lets us plan ahead to desktop and mobile apps, and to bring AI agents directly into your workflow.

Built from what you told us was missing

Your feedback was clear: keep the authentic GTD backbone, fix the friction. So the new app keeps everything you rely on, and adds:

  • Great mobile experience. Every screen, no matter how complex it is, is designed for small screens first.
  • Improved UI. Dark mode, drag-and-drop attachments, undo options... We're fixing things as we build them.
  • Simplicity. While maintaining clarity of purpose, we are removing as much cognitive overload as possible.
  • Optimized processes. A new guided Clarify assistant with the questions that turn stuff into concrete next actions, or a quick mode when you don't need them.
  • Accessibility by default. Keyboard shortcuts, gesture support, legible sizing, and color contrast.

Live in public beta, shipping weekly

We opened the beta with invitations in April 2026. It's now open to everyone. Every core workflow already works end to end, and we publish a new release almost every week. Check out our changelog.
