dump everything in your head. get back one thing to do.
A minimal, dark-themed priority sorter for overwhelmed brains. Built especially with ADHD in mind — no logins, no complexity, no fluff. Just type and get clarity.
You type everything flying around in your head — tasks, worries, errands, ideas — and braindump instantly sorts it into:
- spotlight — the single most important thing to do right now
- ranked list — everything else in priority order
- grouped cards — urgent / today / this week / someday / let go
- no backend, no login, no setup — works instantly in the browser
- rules-based priority sorting using keyword detection
- persistent history — your last 30 dumps are saved locally
- checkbox state persists across sessions and reloads
- copy your sorted output as plain text in one click
- multiline textarea — dump thoughts naturally, sort with
ctrl+enter - fully client-side — your thoughts never leave your device
- open the app
- type everything on your mind into the input — tasks, worries, ideas, anything
- press
ctrl+enter(or click→) - see your spotlight task, ranked list, and grouped categories instantly
- check off tasks as you complete them — state is saved automatically
braindump scans each task for keywords and assigns it a category:
| category | example keywords |
|---|---|
| urgent | asap, fix, bug, deadline, critical, prod |
| today | call, email, reply, send, pay, book |
| this week | review, finish, plan, prepare, write |
| someday | maybe, learn, idea, explore, one day |
| let go | worried, anxious, stressed, can't, what if |
the highest-priority task becomes your spotlight. everything else is ranked below it.
- vanilla html, css, javascript — zero dependencies
