The to-do app that works with your brain, not against it.
Most task managers assume you'll just… do the things. Marvin actually helps you start, focus, and follow through — with unique features designed to make working easier and more fun.
To-do lists, day planner, calendar, habits, goals, and more
Sound familiar?
Traditional To-do apps store your tasks.
They don't help you do them.
You've tried the popular apps. You've watched the productivity videos. But somehow you still end up overwhelmed, procrastinating, and feeling like there's something wrong with you.
Apps that force their way
Most to-do apps have one built-in system. If it doesn't match how you think, you're out of luck.
Overwhelming task lists
Staring at a long list of tasks is paralyzing. Where do you even start?
No help getting started
Writing things down is great, but what most of us struggle with is getting started. No help there in regular apps.
Too many or missing features
Most apps either bury you in features you'll never use, or they're missing that one critical one you need.
Designed differently
Features that address real challenges
Features in Marvin are creatively designed around common productivity challenges. Need extra accountability? Feel overwhelmed? Get stuck in analysis paralysis? Try these:
Super Focus Mode
See just one task at a time in super focus mode. Stay calm and focused instead of paralyzed by a giant list.
Accountability Pledge
Put your money where your mouth is. Pledge real money on task deadlines and pay if you miss them. Nothing like financial stakes to get things done.
Task Jar
Let randomness cut through decision fatigue. Add tasks to the jar and let it randomly select what you work on next.
Spotlight
Focus on 1-3 hours of work at a time. Get suggestions, curate your own session, or let Marvin pick for you.
Day Planning
Schedule tasks for each day and get instant feedback on whether your plan is realistic or over capacity.
Pomodoro Timer
Built-in Pomodoro timers with customizable work and break intervals. Stay focused with timed sessions and regular breaks.
Time Tracking
Track exactly how long you spend on each task. Perfect for billing, reporting, or understanding your productivity patterns.
Procrastination Wizard
Stuck on a task? Launch the Procrastination Wizard to walk through it step-by-step and break through resistance.
And many more
Color coding, gamification, time estimates, recurring tasks, orbit, work sessions and so much more.

The Story Behind Marvin
Built by a procrastinator,
for procrastinators
Hi, I'm Christina. I built Marvin because I was overwhelmed by the mountain of tasks in my own life and couldn't find an app that actually felt good to use.
What started as a personal project became a mission when I discovered how many people struggle with the same thing. Procrastination leaves a trail of misery.
Marvin is different because it's built on real research and years of talking to people like you. It's a mission to help people close the gap between who they are and who they want to be.
