You have 170 tasks. 45 are marked "Critical." You're paralyzed. You don't know where to start. This is the exact moment Compass was built for.

Ever open your task list and feel completely lost? Not sure what to tackle first, watching deadlines drift by, wondering why that task has been sitting there for two weeks? What if your app could be your navigator—someone who's been watching your journey and knows exactly where you need to go?

Today, we're launching Project Compass: the AI-powered ritual that helps you chart your course every morning, reflect every evening, and recalibrate every week.

Ever been mid-conversation with Kaia, switched to check something, then came back to find she forgot everything you just talked about? Yeah, we fixed that. Plus, she can talk to you in dozens of different voices now. Because why not?

We just made starting your Pomodoro sessions as easy as saying what you're working on. No clicking, no searching - just speak naturally and let AI handle the rest.

Hey MYN family! 👋

Spring is in full swing and so is Mind Your Now. Over the past few months we have been heads-down polishing, tweaking, and super-charging your favorite productivity buddy. Today we’re finally ready to spill the beans on everything that’s new — all in plain language, no tech degree required.

Kaia levels-up 🧠​

Kaia, our built-in AI assistant, has been hitting the gym and it shows:

• Break it down, Kaia! Give Kaia one hefty to-do and she’ll split it into clear, manageable tasks in seconds.
• Auto-schedule magic. Kaia now finds the perfect slots in your calendar, so your day feels planned for you, not by you.
• Zone-smart advice. She understands Critical Now vs Opportunity Now (and the rest) better than ever, gently nudging tasks into the right place.
• Natural conversations. Talk to Kaia the way you’d text a friend — she’ll keep up.
• Quick task overview. Ask, “What am I missing today?” and Kaia will instantly list what’s on deck.

Calendar & Scheduling Glow-ups 📅​

Remember January’s big calendar overhaul? We didn’t stop there:

• Drag-and-drop everything. Grab any task and drop it right onto your calendar — done!
• Task locking. Pin must-do meetings so nothing accidentally bumps them.
• Real-time sync. Google and Microsoft calendar events now appear almost instantly thanks to our snazzy webhook integration.

Command Menu & UI polish 🎨​

Get things done without lifting your mouse:

• Press ⌘K / Ctrl+K to open the new Command Menu and jump anywhere lightning-fast.
• Cleaner tooltips, smoother animations, and a refined top bar keep everything feeling fresh.

Quality-of-life Goodies 📱✨​

• New Kick All Tasks button lets you punt a whole day’s list in one tap.
• Task lock toggles now stick reliably — locked means locked.
• Schedule button and zone colors pop with clearer visuals.
• Today’s Briefing appears lightning-fast, even on slow connections.

Connected 🔐​

• MCP support (Model Context Protocol) means your favorite LLMs — Claude, ChatGPT, you name it — can chat with Mind Your Now directly. Build automations, generate tasks, or just ask “What’s on my plate today?” and get an instant answer.

A peek ahead 🔮​

We’re exploring even smarter rescheduling, deeper habit-tracking, and more playful ways Kaia can keep you in flow. Stay tuned!

Your feedback fuels us. Try the new goodies and tell us what you think. Until next time — happy organizing! 🌟

Introducing Ladybug: Automating Task Scheduling with AI​

We are excited to announce our latest update, internally dubbed "Ladybug". This new feature uses real AI to automatically schedule your tasks into calendar events. With Ladybug, you can easily manage your to-do list and free up more time for the things that matter.

What is Ladybug?​

Ladybug is an early preview of our new automated task scheduling feature. It uses AI to schedule your tasks around events on your personal, family, or work calendars. This means that you can focus on what you need to do, without worrying about whether you have time to do it.

How Does Ladybug Work?​

To use Ladybug, you need to have your Google calendar set up as your primary account. This means that it should be the first calendar listed on your Mind Your Now account. You can then add Microsoft calendar as a secondary calendar, but please note that there may be some issues with stability of the Microsoft support. If you encounter any issues, you can simply delete and reconnect your Microsoft account. We are working to clean up these known issues over the next few weeks.

Once you have set up your calendars, Ladybug can start working its magic. It uses AI to automatically schedule your tasks based on the events on your calendar. Ladybug can also help you organize your tasks into four categories: Critical, Opportunity Now, Over The Horizon, and Parking Lot items. This makes it easy to prioritize and manage your tasks.

Please note that Ladybug is still in early preview, and there may be some issues with the schedule editor and timezone compatibility. We are working to address these issues over time to improve your experience.

How to Use Ladybug​

Using Ladybug is easy. Simply log in to your Mind Your Now account and navigate to the new Home/Briefing page. Here, you can see your upcoming meetings and events, as well as your to-do list. Ladybug will automatically schedule your tasks around your events, and you can easily see what you need to do next.

Ladybug is still in early preview, so there may be a few bugs or missing features. However, we are confident that it will help you manage your tasks more efficiently and free up more time for the things that matter. So why not give it a try today?
