If you’re a to-do list lover, you probably remember Wunderlist, the darling child of productivity apps that was packed with useful features and a user interface that adopted a more whimsical approach to being productive. 

It was eventually sold to Microsoft and turned into Microsoft To Do, something which never sat right with co-founder Christian Reber. 

“I felt broken. We put so much hard work and passion into building the product, but I didn’t feel like we’d finished the job.”

From there, Christian co-founded Pitch, which most recently raised $85 million in Series B funding back in 2021. But the itch was still not scratched, which leads us to noq. 

Nearly ten years later, a revived team, including Blinkest founder Niklas Jansen — is back to finish the job with Superlist, a new app that mixes task management, notes, to-do lists, and more into one supercharged productivity tool for you and your team. 

Superlist isn’t just a catchy name. It gives you a hint into what the app is all about. Say you’re working on a new project. Open up the app and create a new “list,” from there, you can fill it with images, files, associated tasks, timeframes, and anything else that makes up your project’s strategy before sharing it with your wider team. 

You can connect it with a number of different apps like Figma, Linear, Gmail, and some others so you can easily link to whatever is needed to give more context, like, say, a mockup of a UI or a code snippet. 

Superlist is currently available on Mac, iOS, Android, and Web — so there is no need for any pesky downloads if a clean desktop is your kind of thing. 

👓 A challenger emerges: Built by an Ex-Apple executive, Frame Glasses are powered by OpenAI’s Whisper and Perplexity and exist to provide AI analysis, translation, and live web search right before your eyes. Can Frame challenge others like the Meta Smart Glasses and Vision Pro?

📹 Almost too realistic: Out of the blue, OpenAI dropped Sora, a brand new text-to-video generator that can output hyper-realistic videos nearly instantly. It’s currently in testing but some of the examples are mind-blowing to put it lightly.
