Capture a thought before it disappears. Purgd routes it, keeps the list small, and helps you focus on one thing at a time. Less sorting. More doing.
See how it worksThoughts pile up faster than you can sort them. By the time you open an app, half of them are gone.
Nested projects, tags, filters, kanban boards. You spend more time organizing than doing.
By the time you decide where to put a task, the motivation to do it is already gone.
Most task apps assume a calm, sequential brain. Purgd is designed for short attention windows, decision fatigue, and the need to capture first and sort later.
We design for the moment a thought appears, before motivation turns into sorting work.
Capture it. Route it. Forget about it.
Type, speak, or paste
Your thought is saved fast. No category required, no setup detour, no friction before capture.
Auto-categorized instantly
A local multi-pass engine sorts items into Work, Health, Money, Home, and more. You can correct it when needed.
One task fills the screen
Commit a few items to Today. Enter Focus Mode. One task, one timer, three buttons: Done, Skip, Break.
A live preview of how Purgd thinks. Zero taps. Zero categories to pick.
Demo runs 100% locally. Nothing you type leaves this page.
No bloat. No anxiety counters. No kanban boards.
Capture thoughts before they disappear. Type, speak, paste, or share from any app. Zero friction, zero decisions.
50+ patterns auto-categorize items across 10 smart categories. Work, Health, Money, Home, all routed in milliseconds.

Urgency, priority, effort, and energy scored together so your most actionable task rises to the top.

One task fills the screen. A Pomodoro-style timer keeps you moving. Three buttons: Done, Skip, Break. Everything else waits.
On poor-sleep days, Purgd reads your Apple Health sleep data and surfaces easier, shorter tasks first so you protect your momentum even when you're running dry. Sleep data never leaves your device.
Purgd tracks your routing streak, lifetime captures, and inbox zeroes. Not to guilt you, but to show you the momentum you've already built.
Most apps assume you already know what's important. Purgd helps you get there.

|---|---|---|---|
| Capture a thought | Under 2s, zero taps to categorize | Pick a list. Pick a tag. Pick a due date. | You forget half of them |
| Organizing | Auto-routed. Multi-pass engine. 50+ patterns. | Manual: projects, tags, filters, folders | None |
| When ADHD hits | Today view caps at 3–7. Focus Mode hides the rest. | Overwhelming backlog, nothing hides | You just freeze |
| Energy & sleep | Adapts on poor-sleep days (HealthKit) | Ignored | Ignored |
| Data | Local-first, 100% on-device by default | Cloud account required | Always local (but losable) |
| Pressure to "stay on top of it" | Momentum, not guilt. No red counters. | Anxiety badges, overdue red | The pile on your desk |
