WhatNext – Automatic prioritization of tasks without scheduling

Summary: WhatNext is a to-do list app that prioritizes tasks based on size and urgency instead of dates or durations. Users assign these two parameters to each task, and the app automatically orders them to indicate which task to work on next, reducing the need for manual scheduling or constant list review.

What it does

WhatNext lets users input tasks with assigned size and urgency values, then automatically ranks them to guide task selection. It eliminates the need to schedule tasks by specific times or durations.

Who it's for

It is designed for users who manage multiple projects or tasks without fixed schedules and prefer prioritizing work based on effort and importance rather than time slots.

Why it matters

It solves the problem of inefficient task prioritization and the repetitive cycle of daily list management by providing a simple, automatic ordering method based on task characteristics.
