What this looks like in Tjati
Start with what you want to do.
An example to bring to the conversation
“Help me prepare for my first 10K without letting it take over my week.”
A running goal can involve a training project, a practice habit and a few next actions. Talk it through with Tjati and review the connected plan it prepares.
The plan can grow from there. Keep a note about what worked, record a habit check-in, or adjust a task when the week changes. The goal stays part of the picture.
Explore life planningMaking the choice
A shared task list may be all you need.
If clear lists and shared project work already cover your needs, Todoist may be the right fit. Tjati becomes worth considering when you want the conversation to include personal goals, routines and context alongside tasks.
Start with one goal you care about. See whether having its next actions and habits connected helps you return to it.
Before you decide
A few things to know.
Can both apps connect to AI assistants?
Yes. Todoist publishes Claude and ChatGPT integrations. Tjati offers remote MCP access with OAuth and explicit scopes. Check the setup and permissions for your chosen client.
Should I move everything over at once?
Start with one real goal or routine. Keep your existing setup while you evaluate Tjati, and check the current documentation for import and integration options before planning a move.
What about mail and calendar connections?
Availability has its own release status. Check the integrations page for the current Tjati connections before choosing around a provider.
