Gutta
A tiny, offline task list for your Mac menu bar
About Gutta
Gutta is a minimalist, keyboard-centric task management tool designed specifically for Mac users who prefer quick, distraction-free workflows. By residing in the menu bar, it offers instant access to a simple yet powerful task list that can be quickly updated via keyboard commands. Its natural language processing allows users to input tasks with dates and times spoken in natural language, making task entry seamless and intuitive. Additionally, Gutta supports semicolon-separated inputs for multiple tasks and can set local reminders, all while storing data locally or syncing through a user-controlled folder in cloud services like iCloud Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive. This approach ensures privacy and user control, with no need for accounts, subscriptions, or cloud tracking. Gutta is ideal for Mac users seeking an efficient, lightweight task manager that integrates smoothly into their workflow without the complexity of larger apps or cloud dependencies.
