Where do you remember your tasks at the worst possible time?

by

I’m launching Blurts on Product Hunt on May 3rd, and this is the problem that made me build it:

I never remember tasks when I’m calmly sitting at my desk.

I remember them while holding my baby, driving, standing in the kitchen, walking into another room, half-asleep, or already late for something.

And it’s never one clean thought.

It’s usually something like:

“Remind me to book the pediatrician, text the contractor, move the dentist appointment, finish that PR, buy more diapers, and don’t forget the thing I already forgot.”

I tried notes apps.
I tried to-do apps.
I tried voice memos.

But voice memos kept the mess. Notes apps required typing. To-do apps expected me to already know what the task was, where it belonged, and when it should happen.

So my husband and I built Blurts for the messy middle - the moment before a thought becomes organized.

You tap one button and ramble naturally. Blurts turns the chaos into actual tasks, pulls out dates from what you said, checks the structure of the tool you already use, and suggests fields like category, priority, status, effort, or whatever properties you already have set up - then sends the task where it belongs.

I’m curious:

Where do you remember your most inconvenient tasks?

In the shower? While driving? While feeding a baby? During meetings? Right before falling asleep?

And what do you currently do with those thoughts?

for me, ideas and to-do's mostly come while I'm coding and between meetings. I do at times forget the idea before I even have a chance to fully write it down
