Stop keeping your to-do list by hand. Let Pippin do it.
Pippin is an automatic task list for your Mac. It reads the text in your windows and writes your to-do list while you work.
For anyone who has given up on to-do apps, forgets what's waiting on them, or has too much to keep track of, Pippin takes the chore out of keeping a list current.
What it does

Your saved data stays on your Mac, with no Pippin account required. To understand your work, Pippin sends relevant text to the AI provider you choose. It reads text, not screenshots.
