How Nuffo works.

Dump anything. Nuffo sorts it. You do three things. Then go live. That’s it, really. Here’s the detail.

  1. A wire bin overflowing with notes, a microphone leaning on it

    01

    Dump anything

    Tasks, errands, deadlines, someday dreams, links, the idea from the shower. Type it, paste a whole list, or tap voice and ramble. Nuffo splits it into separate things.

    try: “dentist before friday, call mum sunday, someday lisbon” works as one line.

  2. Nuffo sorting notes into neat piles

    02

    Nuffo sorts it

    Things to do go to later, with dates it spotted (“friday”, “the 3rd”). Somedays go to wishes, filed by kind: places, books, gifts, food. Not sure? It asks instead of guessing.

  3. A sun above three ticked boxes

    03

    Three things a day

    Each morning Nuffo suggests three: what’s due, then the next step of your projects. One is the main win. Tap sounds good or pick your own. Nothing lands on today unless you say so.

  4. Nuffo in the evening, relaxing

    04

    Wrap up, then go live

    In the evening, 30 seconds: each thing is done, moves to tomorrow, or gets let go. Your week shows dots for main wins. No streak to lose. Monday starts fresh.

  5. Three jars filling with orange

    05

    Your three

    Bigger projects: a move, a course, a business, an app. Three at most. Break each into 3 to 5 steps; the jar fills as you go. Too many on the go? Find my three: list them all, keep three, shelve the rest with a note.

  6. Nuffo eyeing a shiny new idea, unimpressed

    06

    Shiny ideas wait a week

    A brand-new project idea cools in wishes for 7 days before it can take one of your three. Most fade quietly. If you still want it on day seven, it’s real.

  7. Nuffo chatting, making a point

    07

    Talk to Nuffo

    Stuck? Tap talk to nuffo and say what’s going on. It saves what you mention, suggests your three and talks you out of the fourth. It can’t fill your day. Only you do that.

  8. Nuffo rewinding a cassette tape

    08

    Everything is undoable

    Every change Nuffo or a connected AI makes leaves a note with undo. Letting go of old stuff is undoable too. You can download everything or delete your account anytime in settings.

Bring your AI

In settings, connect ChatGPT, Claude or any assistant that supports MCP. It can add to your list and knows your three, suggests your plan when you ask “what should I do today?”, and now and then passes on a line from Nuffo. Build with Claude Code or Cursor? Turn on builder mode: a hook asks before your agent starts a 4th project.

Quick answers

What if I miss a day?

Nothing happens. No streak, no guilt. Open today, tap sounds good, carry on.

Why only three?

Because three finished beats ten started. Everything else is safe in later and wishes.

Can I have more than three projects?

Not at once. Shelve one to bring another in. Shelved projects keep a note on where you left off.

Do I need AI tools to use Nuffo?

No. Nuffo's own sorting and chat are built in. Connecting ChatGPT or Claude is optional.

Who sees my stuff?

Only you. Your public page is off unless you turn it on, and it only ever shows finished things.

How is Nuffo different from Todoist or Things?

It caps you: three things a day, three projects, and new ideas wait a week. They hold more and do more. There's an honest comparison at nuffo.app/compare.
