Voice-Based Integration to Simplify Task Capture in Microsoft To Do

Hi everyone,

We’re working on Gennie, a voice-based assistant designed to integrate with task and productivity tools like Microsoft To Do to make everyday task capture easier.

Many tasks come up during meetings, calls, or while switching between apps, but they often get added to task lists later, sometimes missing important context. The goal of this integration is to let users speak tasks or reminders naturally and have them organized in Microsoft To Do, while keeping Microsoft To Do as the primary task manager.

Some Microsoft To Do–specific use cases we’re exploring:

• Creating tasks using voice
• Adding notes or details to existing tasks hands-free
• Capturing quick reminders as they come up
• Reducing friction between conversations and task entry

We’d love to hear from the community:

• Where does task capture slow you down today?
• Which Microsoft To Do actions would benefit most from voice input?

Looking forward to learning from your workflows and feedback.
