Inspiration

In today’s fast-paced world, managing time and tasks efficiently is a constant challenge. We wanted to create a tool that simplifies productivity by combining smart task management, intuitive UI, and focus-enhancing features — all in one place. The idea was born out of our own need for a distraction-free, organized workspace that could adapt to both solo users and teams.

What it does

TaskOrbit is an AI-powered productivity app that allows users to:

  • Create and manage tasks with ease
  • Organize projects with boards and categories
  • Track progress in a clean, minimal interface
  • Stay focused with intelligent reminders and status indicators

It’s designed to boost clarity, minimize clutter, and keep users in orbit around their goals.

How we built it

We built TaskOrbit using:

  • React with Vite for blazing-fast development
  • Tailwind CSS for responsive and elegant UI
  • JavaScript for dynamic interactions
  • Vercel for seamless deployment and hosting

The project structure follows modern development practices to ensure scalability and performance.
