Get Chorsu for Mac

For ADHD brains and busy ones

Write the task.
Skip the sorting.

Chorsu is a local-first task manager for Mac. Type a task the way you’d say it, from any app. Chorsu reads the time, asks which project if it isn’t sure, and leaves nothing to sort later.

Catch it before it’s gone

Type it the way it lands in your head.

Thoughts don’t wait for a good moment. Write the sentence as it comes. Chorsu reads the time and what the task is waiting on, and the task is filed before the panel closes.

  • book a dentist appointment tomorrow at 9
    • Tomorrow, 9:00 AM
  • call mom sunday at 6pm
    • Sunday, 6:00 PM
  • pay the electricity bill on friday
    • Friday
  • reply to Sarah’s email in 2 hours
    • In 2 hours
  • send the report tomorrow at 9 after budget approval
    • Tomorrow, 9:00 AM
    • Waits for “Budget approval”
  • fix the kitchen faucet at home
    • Filed to Home

Examples use projects named Work, Home, and Personal, and an open task called Budget approval. When the words don’t point to one project, Chorsu asks once in the same panel, and its suggestions improve as your projects fill up.

Wait, what was I doing?Capture from any app with one shortcut, then go straight back.
Which project does this even go in?Answer it once, right in the capture panel.
I’ll set a reminder later.Write “tomorrow at 9” in the sentence. Chorsu schedules it.
Can I actually start this yet?Blocked tasks stay out of Today until you can start them.
I’ll clean up my inbox on Friday.There is no inbox to clean up.

One sentence. Nothing left to sort.

Automatic comeback

Stop checking work you can’t do yet.

A task that waits on another stays out of Today. Finish what it waits for, and Chorsu brings it back under Just unblocked.

Your work stays yours

Your task text stays on your Mac by default.

No Chorsu account. No ads. Your tasks, projects, reminders, and dependencies are stored locally on your Mac.

On-device work
Your tasks, projects, and routing context remain local.
Honest diagnostics
Optional scrubbed crash and app-hang reports exclude every user-authored string and can be switched off.
No cloud dependency
Chorsu still captures and organizes tasks when optional local model assistance is unavailable.

Apple and RevenueCat handle purchases and Pro verification. RevenueCat also records when the upgrade screen is shown and when the free project limit is reached. Crash diagnostics are on by default and can be turned off. These reports exclude task text and project names. Optional integrations can share your content when you enable and connect them.

The practical details

Questions before the first task.

What is Chorsu?

Chorsu is a Mac task app that organizes tasks as you capture them. It files clear tasks into projects, reads English reminders, and brings blocked work back when it becomes actionable.

Is Chorsu made for ADHD?

Chorsu is a task app, not a medical or treatment tool. It is built around the moments ADHD brains tend to lose: a thought that arrives in the middle of other work, a reminder you meant to set, a task you cannot start yet, and an inbox that never gets cleared. Capture takes one shortcut and one sentence, and nothing waits to be sorted later.

What happens when Chorsu is not sure?

Chorsu asks you to choose the project inside Quick Capture. The task is created after that choice, so there is no Inbox to clean later.

Does Chorsu need Apple Intelligence?

No. Automatic project routing and English date parsing work without Apple Intelligence. Clear tasks file automatically; uncertain tasks ask you to choose a project inside Quick Capture. Optional on-device model assistance can improve project suggestions, but saving never waits for it.

What leaves my Mac?

Chorsu keeps your task text and project names on your Mac by default. The Mac App Store edition uses network access for purchase verification, two limited upgrade signals, and crash diagnostics you can turn off. If you enable local AI task access, clients you choose can read task data under their own terms.

What is included for free?

Chorsu Free includes 3 active projects, 8 task creations in total, routing, reminders, dependencies, and the automatic comeback when blocked work becomes ready.

Where can I download Chorsu?

Chorsu is available on the Mac App Store. Download it free for 3 active projects and 8 task creations. Requires macOS 26 or later; natural-language parsing is English-only.
