Lorvex is a personal planning app that combines task management with an optional AI assistant. You can add tasks in natural language, and an assistant can capture them from conversation, set priorities, estimate how long they will take, track dependencies, and prepare a daily plan. Automatic scheduling and priority replanning are supported. The Today view brings the day’s tasks and briefing together, explains what matters, and flags deadlines at risk. Its calendar offers day, week, and month views, with time-blocked plans and links between tasks and events. For longer-term routines and reflection, Lorvex includes habit streaks, heatmaps, daily check-ins, and end-of-day reviews covering mood, energy, wins, and blockers. Lorvex can work as a standalone task manager, so connecting an AI client is optional. When connected, compatible clients include Claude, Codex, and other MCP clients, using local MCP tools. Planning data is stored in SQLite on the device, and iCloud sync is optional. Lorvex is free and open source under Apache 2.0. Its listed platforms are iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows; its download page describes macOS and iOS as planned and coming soon.
Who it is for
Lorvex suits people who want tasks, priorities, schedules, and habit reviews in one planning app. It can also suit users who want an AI client to work with their planning through MCP, while retaining the option to use the task manager on its own.
