Add tasks in natural language. AI extracts, prioritizes, and summarizes them for you.
TaskFlow AI is a full-stack web application where users can manage tasks using plain English. Instead of filling forms, you type something like "finish the DSA assignment by tomorrow, it's urgent" — and the AI automatically extracts the task title, sets the priority to High, calculates tomorrow's date, and saves it. A live countdown timer shows exactly how much time is left for each task.
- Natural language task input — type anything, AI does the rest
- AI-powered prioritization — automatically sets High / Medium / Low priority
- Smart due date & time extraction — understands "tomorrow", "next Monday", "at 8pm"
- Live countdown timer — ticks down second by second per task
- Overdue detection — tasks past due are flagged instantly
- AI daily focus summary — generates a motivating summary of your pending tasks, mentioning overdue and urgent items by name
- Priority filters — filter tasks by High / Medium / Low in the sidebar
- Mark complete / Delete — full task lifecycle management
- Toast notifications — instant feedback on every action
- Animated welcome screen — motivational greeting with live task stats and progress bar on every reload
- Clean minimal UI — professional light theme, no UI library used
