The Dynalist Alternative That's Still Being Built
Keep infinite nesting and keyboard-first outlining. Add assignees, table columns, Kanban, Gantt and AI that does the work.
Dynalist is a great outliner, and plenty of people still run their lives in it. But by its own users' accounts it has been maintenance-only for years while its team builds Obsidian, so the bugs and missing features you hit today will likely still be there next year. And it was designed for one person: there is no way to assign a bullet, track status across a team, or see work on a board or timeline. Taskpend keeps the outliner you rely on and keeps shipping.
Why switch
What Taskpend does that Dynalist doesn't
The outliner you know, and it keeps improving
Infinite nesting, zoom into any bullet, tags, dates and keyboard shortcuts, with mirrors that stay synced everywhere a task appears. And it keeps getting new features.
Turn any list into a table, board or timeline
Give bullets typed columns (status, people, dates, dropdowns) and switch the same list to Kanban or Gantt. Dynalist stops at a list.
AI that breaks down and does the work
Describe a project and AI drafts the subtask tree, writes the doc, or runs the task. Taskpend also has an MCP server, so Claude and other agents can work in your outline.
