How Does Jarvis Move Tasks From Gmail to Todoist?

Jarvis (getjarvis.eu) reads an email and creates a Todoist task from it when you ask. It is a screen-aware desktop AI assistant for macOS, Windows, and Linux that connects both Gmail and Todoist. Open it with Cmd+/ (Ctrl+/ on Windows) on the email and say 'add this as a task due Friday.' Jarvis extracts the actionable item, sets a due date and priority, picks a project, and creates the task via OAuth. It can even capture several to-dos from a single long email at once. Drafting and extraction run on frontier models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. You see the task before it's saved. Tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest, and Jarvis never trains on your inbox. Free to start, then $16/month on Pro.

Emails rarely say 'here is a task' — they say 'can you send the deck before the call Thursday?' Jarvis interprets that, creating a Todoist task titled clearly ('Send deck to client'), with the Thursday due date inferred from context and the right project chosen. If the email contains several asks, it can split them into separate tasks. You can guide it ('priority 1, label @waiting') in plain language, and it maps that to Todoist's fields. The link back to the original email can be added to the task so you keep the source one click away.

Todoist's email-forwarding feature dumps the raw email subject as a task, leaving you to clean it up. Jarvis instead understands the email and writes a crisp, dated, prioritized task — and it does so for the specific message you're looking at, on demand, not for everything you forward. Because it's screen-aware, you can highlight a single paragraph in a thread and say 'just this part,' which is far more precise than processing an entire forwarded message. It also remembers your default project and labeling style across sessions.
