Klein. Stil. Klaar.
We're a small team in Pretoria building one thing well: the world's simplest task manager — with a WhatsApp inbox for the way South Africans actually communicate.
stil.
klaar.
Four rules. We picked them on purpose.
The best app is the one you don't have to open.
That's why Taakie lives in WhatsApp. The chat you already have open forty-three times an hour.
Less is faster.
Two lists (vandag and môre) beat six dashboards every single time. We measured it. Then we threw away the spreadsheet.
South Africa has its own grammar.
Taakie understands Afrikaans, English, and the language you actually speak — somewhere between the two, with a few words from your ouma thrown in.
Your data is yours.
Export to plain text any time. Delete the lot in one tap. No retention loopholes, no “legitimate interest” nonsense.
Four of us. Each does about three jobs.
Tyron runs it. Calista designs it. Megan films it. Aylan keeps the lys. We've given them their own page, with proper poster photos and badly-described Q&As.
Made in Pretoria. Customers from Centurion to that one guy in Bloem.
We're building Taakie slowly, on purpose. No VC pressure to ship a Gantt chart. No quarterly redesigns. Just the same simple list, getting better, week by week.
