What is Favro?

Planning tool ships small collaboration and dashboard refinements, cadence slowing.

Favro is a project-planning and collaboration tool shipping weekly release notes that are mostly incremental: dashboards leaving early access, card sharing via link, field collapse/expand controls, and a stream of chart and automation bug fixes. The captured feed slows through late 2025.

What is Todoist?

Todoist's 2026 bets are on capture: voice via Ramble, photos and files via Task Capture.

The entries SparkPulse tracks for Todoist are help-center index pages rather than dated release notes, so the detail is thin. They show a 2026 built around getting tasks into the app with less typing: Ramble turns spoken thoughts into tasks (January), came to Wear OS in beta (March), and Task Capture scans notes, photos and files for tasks (beta, April). Later months cover urgency triage and capturing tasks wherever they appear, while the experimental track retired Goals and simplified Quick Add.

Favro vs Todoist: editorial side-by-side

F0.0

Planning tool ships small collaboration and dashboard refinements, cadence slowing.

◆ Current state

Favro is a project-planning and collaboration tool shipping weekly release notes that are mostly incremental: dashboards leaving early access, card sharing via link, field collapse/expand controls, and a stream of chart and automation bug fixes. The captured feed slows through late 2025.

◆ Where it's heading

The work reads as steady maintenance and small usability gains rather than directional bets, with dashboards and card sharing the most substantive recent additions. Release frequency in the captured window thins over time.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued incremental card and dashboard refinements; the entries don't signal a larger strategic move on the horizon.

T0.0

Todoist's 2026 bets are on capture: voice via Ramble, photos and files via Task Capture.

◆ Current state

The entries SparkPulse tracks for Todoist are help-center index pages rather than dated release notes, so the detail is thin. They show a 2026 built around getting tasks into the app with less typing: Ramble turns spoken thoughts into tasks (January), came to Wear OS in beta (March), and Task Capture scans notes, photos and files for tasks (beta, April). Later months cover urgency triage and capturing tasks wherever they appear, while the experimental track retired Goals and simplified Quick Add.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is AI-assisted capture spreading across inputs and devices: speech first, then images and documents, then other surfaces. The experimental channel is being used to test and prune, as the retired Goals beta shows, so not every beta becomes a permanent feature.

◆ Prediction

Expect Task Capture and Ramble to leave beta or spread to more platforms; the index pages don't give dates, so timing is unclear.
