Your notes remember
what to do next.

From thought to action, without losing the thread.

Tareea is a connected workspace for people who think by writing and need their tasks to remember the why. Notes, tasks, and time — permanently connected.

You're on the list. We'll email you when it's your turn.

The problem

The thinking and the doing
keep losing each other.

You write a note. Three actions come out of it. You put those actions somewhere else and by the time they need doing the connection is gone. The task exists. The thinking behind it doesn't.

You spend the first minutes of every work session reconstructing context you already built. This is not a discipline problem. It is a tool problem. No tool was built to hold the connection between where an idea came from and what it needs to become.

Until now.

The connection

The task always
remembers the note.

Select any text in a note. One click. A task is created — and it carries a permanent link back to the exact note where the idea lived. Six weeks later, you open that task and you still know what you were thinking and why it mattered.

Brussels: who really drove the vote

The official version and the real version are probably different. Find out whether the board saw the risk assessment before or after the vote.

Cross-reference the timeline with the leaked February memo. Check if her name appears in the subsidiary filings→ Create a task — it might. Send a thank-you within 24 hours.

The writing surface

A surface that
gets out of the way.

Headings, lists, quotes, code — full rich text and Markdown, with formatting that appears when you reach for it and disappears when you don't. No AI suggestions rewriting the sentence you're still thinking through.

Focus mode clears everything but the page — the sidebar, both toolbars and the side panel slide away. Typewriter mode keeps the line you're writing centred, so you never chase the cursor down the page. Quick Capture gets a thought down in a keystroke, before it's gone.

Interview notes — Brussels

She reached out first. That matters — people who reach out usually have something they need to say.

Before the call

  • Re-read the leaked February memo
  • Pull the subsidiary filing list

Let her lead for the first twenty minutes. Don't fill the silence.

The map

See which ideas actually drive work.

View any Folio as a map. Every note becomes a node; every task it generated sits beside it, joined by a line drawn the moment the task was created. The most consequential thinking stands out before you read a single label.

The timeline

See the shape of your work
across time.

Fourteen days of context behind you. Sixty days of intentions ahead. Your tasks appear as coloured dots on a spatial map — dense where work is concentrated, open where there's breathing room. Drag any dot to reschedule. The plan updates instantly.

tasks. 14 back · 60 ahead
Drag dots to reschedule
Today
Drag to reschedule
Grab any dot, drag it to a different day. The task moves. The plan updates. No modal, no form. Pure spatial planning.
Priority by size
High priority tasks are larger dots. The cognitive load of a day is visible before you read a single title.
No-date column
Tasks without a due date live in a permanent column at the far right. Intentions captured but not yet anchored to time — visible, never forgotten.
The Focus card

Always know
what to start with.

The Focus card scores every active task in your workspace and surfaces the single most important thing to work on right now. It runs every time you open the dashboard.

Time is the hardest constraint, so overdue tasks score highest. Priority is what you set deliberately. When urgency is equal, the task with the richest context — linked notes, completed subtasks, description — rises to the top.

The result is one clear next action. Not a quadrant. Not a ranking. Just: start here.

When nothing is urgent "Nothing urgent today. You're ahead." — the card tells you that too. Knowing your plate is clear is information.
Note Share

Share sensitive work
without losing control.

When you publish a note in Tareea, you're not sending a file. You're opening a reading window into a version of your thinking — on your terms, for as long as you decide, to exactly the recipients you choose.

Every shared note is protected by a 6-digit code delivered separately to your recipient's email. The link and the code travel by different channels. Forwarding the link alone is useless. When the link expires — 7, 14, or 30 days — it stops working automatically.

When your thinking evolves, republish. The same link updates. No new URL, no resending.

Snapshot-based Passkey protected Expires automatically No Tareea account needed

In the current version, shared snapshots are stored as readable content on our servers. They are not end-to-end encrypted. No AI processes your shared content.

A 6-digit access code is sent to each recipient’s email. Without it the link cannot be opened — even if forwarded.

Our choices

Everyone else is building an AI workspace.
We chose not to.

NoAI assistant reading your drafts
No'improve this paragraph' suggestions
Nopush notifications or social pressure
Nomeeting recorder
Nostreaks or activity feeds

In Tareea, nothing passes through a model. Not by policy — by design. The intelligence built into the workspace comes from timestamps and word patterns, not inference.

With end-to-end encryption, we couldn't read what you write even if we wanted to. The guarantee isn't something you have to trust us to keep. It's built into the architecture.

If you choose to take your work to an AI tool, that choice is yours to make, outside of Tareea.

Connected mode

Private by architecture.
Connected by choice.

Tareea is private by design, not by policy. In Private mode — the default for every new account — your note titles, task titles, Folio names, tags, and content are encrypted. Connected mode is a Pro option you opt into deliberately, to power three outbound features.

Live iCal feed
Subscribe from Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook. Your tasks with due dates, always current. The feed updates when you update Tareea.
Email digests
Daily or weekly summary of what's due. Task titles and due dates only — content never leaves Tareea unencrypted.
Webhooks
Push task and note events to Zapier, Slack, or your own tools — without giving anything read access to your content.

Your note and task content stays encrypted in both modes. You can switch back to Private mode after 30 days. Whatever already left Tareea while Connected cannot be recalled — that trade-off is clearly stated before you switch.

Questions

Things people ask

Does Tareea use AI?
No. Smart features work on the structure you create — due dates, status, connections between notes. Your content is never read, analysed, or sent to any model. The intelligence comes from timestamps and word patterns, not inference.
What is end-to-end encryption?
Your note and task content is encrypted before it leaves your device. We receive encrypted data we cannot read. In Private mode, your titles and labels are encrypted too. Encryption is on for every account, every tier, always.
Can I use AI with my Tareea notes?
Yes — through your own pipeline. Export your notes and pipe them to any AI tool you choose. Tareea never touches that pipeline. Privacy shouldn't mean isolation.
How is this different from Notion or Bear?
Tareea connects your notes to your tasks permanently — the task carries a link back to the note where the idea lived. Bear has no tasks. Notion stores content in plaintext and runs AI on it. Tareea encrypts content and runs smart features on metadata only.
What happens when I hit the Free cap?
The cap applies to active items only — archived notes, tasks, and Folios don't count. You can archive completed work to free up space, or upgrade to Pro for unlimited. Hitting the cap never deletes anything.
What is Connected mode?
A Pro option you opt into deliberately. It powers a live iCal feed, email digests, and webhooks using your task and note labels only. Your content stays encrypted. You can switch back to Private after 30 days.
Why we built this

We built Tareea
because we needed it.

Tareea started as a personal problem — managing complex, high-stakes work while constantly losing the connection between the thinking and the doing. Writing a note that generated three actions, then finding those actions completely separated from their context by the time they needed doing.

We are an independent team, funded by personal savings, building something we believe in. No venture capital. No growth-at-all-costs mandate. Just a product for a specific kind of person: if you think by writing and need to act on what you think, Tareea is for you.

— Patricia & Gio, Tareea
