Stop wondering what you forgot.
Everything you're carrying goes in one place: deadlines, projects, admin, and the ideas with no date that sink to the bottom of every other list. Margin keeps all of it ranked and reorders as things change, so you open it, start at the top, and trust that nothing else is slipping.
14 days free. Card required. Then $19/month, cancel anytime.
Task lists punish anything without a deadline. It sinks to the bottom and sits there, while you re-sort what's left by hand, every day.
Margin doesn't let anything go silent.
When a task keeps getting pushed or a project goes quiet, Margin says something instead of letting it sit.
When something keeps getting pushed, Margin says so. The work with no deadline is exactly what would otherwise sit there for a year.
“I tracked it once: 127 minutes in a single day spent deciding what to do next, and not one of those minutes doing any of it.”
RaSheem Barnett, Founder
The same nine things, two different mornings.
Why not just ask Claude or ChatGPT?
You can ask an assistant to prioritize your list, and it will give you a good answer. Then you gather everything again, explain what changed, and ask again tomorrow.
Margin is built to do that job on its own. Your deadlines, projects, admin, and undated ideas already live in it. When you add something, finish something, or a date moves, Margin reorders everything else around it. No prompt to rebuild. No context to re-explain. Nothing to remember to run.
The ranking runs on a scoring engine rather than a language model, so the same inputs give you the same list every time.
And if you already work in an assistant, you don't have to choose. Connect it to Margin and let each one do what it's good at.
Your day arrives already decided.
Open the app to today's list in the right order: what's first, what can wait, how many things a day like yours actually holds. The deciding is done before you show up.
Type “send Dave the proposal” and Margin already knows it's a 30-minute job: no duration field, no follow-up questions. Your day is sized from what you wrote, not from data entry you'll never do. And when it can't all fit, Margin says so instead of pretending.
Nothing stays stuck.
A list rots where something is stuck: too big to start, blocked on someone else, not really one task, not worth doing at all. When something keeps slipping, Margin says so, and the way out is already there.
Break it down. Real first steps, dropped into the list, sized.
Mark as waiting. Say what you're waiting on; it moves to Resume and comes back when it's yours again.
Make this a project. Some things were never one task. Margin keeps a next action queued.
Drop it. One click, no ceremony, no archive-of-shame.
Ask your list. It answers, and it acts.
“I've got 45 minutes, what can I knock out?”
“What did I finish yesterday?”
“Add a deadline to the thing about the wire.”
Type it or say it. It isn't a search box, it's a conversation with your own list, and it can change things, not just find them.
Answers come only from your own tasks, notes, and history. Nothing else goes in, nothing else comes out.
Stop texting yourself.
The link you sent yourself at midnight. The idea you emailed yourself at a red light. Everything in your head gets one place to land: send it from your phone, it's waiting at your desk.
Web, share sheet, screenshot paste, voice, Shortcut. No follow-up questions.
nothing asked
Something you'll do joins the ranked list, sized and placed.
Quiet, searchable, off your list, until one tap makes one a task. Nothing pretends to be urgent to stay visible.
A blank surface for the half-formed. Nothing here nags you or counts against your day. What sits a while gets gathered: keep it, finish it, or drop it. Nothing is ever deleted on its own.
Also in the box
Sized to your recent pace, not a fantasy of one. When a day can't hold it all, Margin says so.
Flow days refill the list as you finish; Finish days lock it so you can close it out.
Pull anything into today, just for today. It goes back tomorrow. A busy Tuesday doesn't rearrange your list for good.
Work that takes more than one sitting lives together, and Margin keeps something task-sized queued. A project with no next action is a wish.
Goal modes, plus a focus tuner for weighting what matters this week.
Open a task and see the others like it: same tool, same headspace. Check them off while you're here.
The same engine that orders Today keeps the whole backlog in order. Nothing sinks out of sight.
Your deals and your day, finally in the same place.
Every CRM tells you a deal moved to Proposal. Margin writes the proposal task, dates it, and drops it into the day it is actually due, ranked against everything else you owe. Move a card, get the work.
Set the tasks a stage should create, once. Every deal that reaches it gets them, dated off the close date or the day it arrived, assigned to whoever should own them.
Winning can open the job in your delivery pipeline automatically, with its own stages and its own first tasks. Sales keeps the money. Delivery gets the work.
Share a pipeline with a client or a subcontractor by email. No seat charges, no account required on their end. They see only what you share, and only the tasks you assign them.
Use Margin through the AI assistant you already work in.
Connect Claude or ChatGPT and work your list from inside the assistant you already use. Ask what to do next, add and complete tasks, or tell it how much open time you have today and Today sizes to fit.
Your calendar stays yours, Margin never sees it.
Margin is not for everyone.
More on your plate than any day holds, and it's mixed: work, home, admin, the thing you keep meaning to start.
You've tried the beautiful systems and abandoned them. Maintaining one became another job.
You don't need help doing the work. You need back the time spent deciding which work.
You want an app that does the work. Margin picks what's next. You still have to do it.
You want Gantt charts, Kanban, dependencies, or sprints. Margin has projects, not project management.
You enjoy sorting your list yourself. Margin takes away the part you like.
And there's no free forever plan. Fourteen days, then $19.
I built this because I was doing it on paper.
For years my whole life ran out of a physical notebook. Every morning I rewrote the list. Every afternoon I rewrote it again, because things had moved. I timed it once out of curiosity: 127 minutes in a single day spent deciding what to do next, and not one of those minutes spent doing any of it.
I tried the apps. Every one of them wanted more from me than the notebook did. Estimate this. Tag that. Pick a priority from four options that all mean “soon.” The work before the work just moved to a screen and got a nicer font.
Margin is the notebook that rewrites itself. I use it every day, and I'm the reason every field you'd have to fill in isn't there.
