TellDone vs Todoist

One manages tasks. The other creates them from your voice.

TellDone is not a Todoist replacement. It feeds Todoist. Speak into TellDone, and your tasks appear in Todoist with the right project, priority, and due date. For most users, TellDone + Todoist is the answer, not TellDone or Todoist.
