Less app.
More klaar.
Taakie is a clean, simple to-do list. No projects-within-projects, no AI assistant for your AI assistant. Just a list. WhatsApp in your taakies, tick them off, klaar.
★ Pretorianers, Capetonians and 1 guy from Bloem — first logo's free real estate.
Already on WhatsApp.
Now your taakies are too.
Send Taakie a message like you would Ouma. It adds, organises, and reminds, straight in WhatsApp — the one chat you already check forty-three times an hour.
1. Pak hond se kos uit · vandag
2. Stuur invoice · by 12:00
- Pak hond se kos uit
- Stuur invoice · by 12:00
- Atletiek by skool · 16:30
- Skoonma se blomme
Type it like a normal mens.
“Onthou om die hond se kos te koop.” Taakie figures out it's a taakie, what date, what tag. No weird syntax, no /commands. Type. Klaar.
Voice notes work too.
Walking the dog? Sê dit. Send a voice note. We transcribe in Afrikaans & English (and don't moan when you switch mid-sentence). Auto-tagged, auto-dated.
Forward and forget.
That message from your boss with three things in it? Forward it to Taakie. Three taakies appear. Kry koffie en gaan slaap.
Morning brief at 06:00
One short message. Today's three. No drama. Reply “klaar” to mark them done.
Afrikaans & English
Understands môre, vandag, oor twee weke, Saterdag se braai, plus your aunt's WhatsApp grammar.
2-second add
Faster than opening any app. Faster than thinking, “I'll do it later.” (You won't.)
Drop it on the lys. Tick it off. Klaar.
Whisper at WhatsApp.
Tell Taakie what's on your mind in plain Afrikaans, English, or that thing in between. No tags, no projects to set up.
Taakie sorts the rommel.
It picks up dates, priorities, tags. Decides what's vandag and what's môre. Doesn't argue. Doesn't ping you about onboarding.
Tick. Tick. Klaar.
Reply to Taakie, or open it on the web. Tap a checkbox. The lime square turns. The dot ticks. Your shoulders drop. Tomorrow's brief is already drafting.
Klein. Stil. Klaar.
No “AI workspace OS for the future of work.” Just a lys that listens, remembers, and doesn't try to sell you a Pro plan every Tuesday.
WhatsApp inbox
Type, voice-note, or forward. Anything that lands in Taakie's chat becomes a taakie within 2 seconds.
Vandag / Môre
Two lists. Today and tomorrow. That's the whole hierarchy. Yes, really.
Quick capture
Hit ⌥-space anywhere on your computer. Taakie pops up, you type, klaar.
Tags die jy verstaan
#werk, #huis, #braai. No “epics,” no “swimlanes.” We're not Atlassian.
Recurring taakies
“Elke Vrydag, gooi vullis uit.” Taakie remembers so your wife doesn't have to.
Daily brief
06:00 every morning. Three things to do. One short paragraph. Optional.
Push to calendar
Every taakie with a due date lands on your calendar — Google, Apple, Outlook. See your taakies next to your meetings. (Pro)
100GB per user
Pro gives every teammate 100GB of storage for attachments, voice notes, and files. Room for the whole lys. (Pro)
Sorry — no reviews yet. We just launched.
We'd love to put something here. If you've used Taakie, drop a one-liner on Facebook — we'll print it, frame it, and put it on this page. Be quote number one → Or send it through the form.
“Your honest one-liner here. Doesn't have to be long.”
“We'll frame it. Then take it down when we get a better one.”
“Or just a single word. We're easy. We'll embellish.”
★ We'll replace these with real ones the moment they arrive. Probably. Maybe with a small fanfare.
Pick one.
Both klaar.

Everyone wants to know.
How do you say “taakie”?
/ˈtɑː.ki/. Like “tar-key” but lighter. It's Afrikaans for a small task. The diminutive “-kie” makes it warm and slightly cute, which is the whole vibe.
What does Taakie cost?
Taakie Lite is R100/month for the full app. Taakie Pro is R300/month and adds WhatsApp, voice notes, the daily morning brief, calendar push (Google/Apple/Outlook), and 100GB of storage per user. No ads, no upsells, no e-mails about a webinar.
Do I have to use WhatsApp?
Nope. Taakie works on the web without it. WhatsApp is just the fastest way for most people, since it's already on your home screen.
Does it work in Afrikaans?
Yes. Date parsing, voice-note transcription, and tags all understand Afrikaans & English (and code-switching mid-sentence, we know how you speak).
What about my data?
Encrypted in transit and at rest. You can export to plain text or delete everything in one tap. POPIA-compliant. We're a small team, we like keeping things simple.
Where's the calendar / kanban / Gantt chart?
There isn't one. There's vandag and môre. If you need a Gantt chart, you don't need a to-do list, you need therapy. With love.
