Get things done. Tell no one.
Simple to-do lists or full project management — you decide. Four view types, algorithmic prioritization, built-in time tracking, GTD contexts, and semantic linking to every other plugin. Multiple ways to manage your work, zero ways for anyone else to see it.
Your workflow, your rules
PrivStack Tasks adapts to how you work. Need a quick to-do list? Simple mode gives you checkboxes and nothing else. Running a complex project? Switch to detailed mode with descriptions, time tracking, task relationships, and status tracking — like a private Jira that never phones home. Can't decide what to work on next? Pairwise comparison walks you through head-to-head matchups and algorithmically ranks your priorities.
Your productivity, their data
Your task list reveals everything about your life — projects you're working on, deadlines you're facing, priorities you're juggling. Cloud task apps put all of this on their servers. And most force you into one workflow — either too simple or too complex. Need Kanban? Pay extra. Need time tracking? Another app. Need it to link to your notes? Not happening.
Four View Types
See your work the way you want. Drag-and-drop list, kanban board, GTD timeline grouped by urgency, or calendar view organized by due date.
- List view with drag-and-drop reordering
- Kanban board — To Do, In Progress, Done columns
- GTD Timeline — Now, Today, This Week, Later
- Calendar view — tasks by due date with navigation
- Smart filters — Inbox, Today, This Week, Overdue
Simple & Detailed Modes
Quick checkboxes for everyday to-dos, or full project management with statuses, descriptions, time tracking, and 8 task statuses. You choose the complexity.
- Simple mode — quick checkboxes for everyday tasks
- Detailed mode — full project management
- 8 task statuses — Todo, In Progress, Done, Waiting, and more
- Priority levels — None, Low, Medium, High, Urgent
- Archive completed tasks to stay clean
Prioritization Engine
Can't decide what to work on? Pairwise comparison walks you through head-to-head matchups and algorithmically ranks your tasks by importance.
- Pairwise comparison — head-to-head task matchups
- Algorithmic priority ranking
- Priority levels with smart filters
- GTD contexts (@home, @work, @phone) as filters
Time Tracking
Built-in timer with manual time entries. Track estimated vs actual time per task without needing a separate app.
- Built-in live timer per task
- Manual time entry support
- Estimated vs actual tracking
- Per-task time logs
Task Hierarchy & Relationships
Break work into subtasks and child tasks with progress rollup. Link tasks with DependsOn, BlockedBy, and Blocks relationships. Add timestamped notes to any task.
- Subtasks with progress tracking and checklists
- Child tasks with hierarchical progress rollup
- Relationships — DependsOn, BlockedBy, Blocks, ChildOf, ParentOf
- Discrete timestamped notes on each task
- Semantic linking to notes, calendar, contacts, deals
Recurring Tasks & Projects
Set tasks to recur daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or with custom patterns. Organize everything with color-coded projects and track completion statistics.
