When setting personal goals, we often overestimate our own productivity, set tight deadlines and do not have time to complete everything we have planned. A new feature in Todoist called Smart Scheduling will help you avoid this. Artificial intelligence will tell you how long it will take you for sure to cope with this or that case.

According to the Todoist developers, over 70% of users have overdue tasks. And this is by no means because one of the best planners is used mostly by disorganized people. It's just that sometimes it is difficult to give a correct assessment of your own capabilities and to foresee all the circumstances.

With the new Smart Scheduling feature, all outstanding user tasks should disappear. Now, in the Today and 7 Days To-Do Lists, you can click Reschedule, and the AI will suggest new dates for you. In addition, when adding a new task, the AI will try to predict the time it will take to complete it.

Of course, the recommendations of the smart assistant will be based on the study of user behavior. If you usually parse mail in the morning and read it in the evening, then the function will assign the appropriate tasks for this particular time. Also, "Smart Scheduling" helps to evenly distribute the workload over the day. For example, if Friday is free, and Thursday is a complete rush, then the AI will transfer part of the tasks to the last day of the week. Moreover, the new feature is able to determine the urgency of any task, based on the analysis of information from all Todoist users.

Please note that Smart Planning is still learning, so it may not always work correctly. However, the more often you use AI tips, the more accurate its predictions will become. To enjoy the helper's capabilities, just update Todoist.
