Capture a task in seconds

1. 1Press N anywhere in Kairo (or tap the ✦ button in the mobile bar, or Capture in the desktop sidebar).
2. 2Type the thought exactly as you'd say it.
3. 3Press Enter.

That's it. With no date, the task lands in your Inbox, a holding pen you triage later, when you're planning rather than thinking.

After Enter, the panel stays with you for a moment: AI reads your sentence, and the finished task appears right there, its day, time, estimate and list, with a note on what AI filled in. Done closes it, Capture another keeps going, Open jumps into the task.

You can put dates, times, estimates and lists straight into the sentence, and Kairo pulls them out as you type. Live chips under the box preview what it understood.

The full reference, including repeats like every mon and wed, is in dates, times, and other shortcuts.

• No date → your Inbox, waiting to be planned.
• A day (today, fri, next week) → planned for that day, so it shows up on Today or the Calendar.
• A time but no day → today, at that time.
• A repeat but no day → the rule's first occurrence.

Every list, every day in the Calendar's week view, and Today itself have their own inline add row. They understand the same syntax, but default to that context, typing in Thursday's row plans it for Thursday, and typing in a list files it there.
