What Checkvist is

Checkvist is a keyboard-first outliner and online task manager built around lists. Lists can be structured into extensive hierarchies, with keyboard shortcuts, Markdown, code, tables, bulk operations, sorting, and backlinks for working with content. Tasks support tags, due dates, notes, assignees, file attachments, priorities, and progress counters. Lists can be shared privately or publicly with read-only or write access, password protection, expiration times, and task assignment. Integrations include Zapier, Dropbox, Google Calendar sync, Jira, YouTrack, Slack, browser extensions, and an Open API. The mobile experience is a progressive web app that syncs and works offline on iOS and Android, while its Web Clipper collects tasks, bookmarks, and notes from web pages and services including Gmail, Zendesk, Jira, and GitHub. The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited hierarchical lists and sharing, Markdown, due dates, tags, mobile offline access, browser extensions, and Open API. PRO costs $3.90 per month, billed $39/year, and adds features such as task assignment, repeating tasks, and 2 GB of file storage. A 14-day PRO trial is available without a credit card.
