When to choose TAMSIV
TAMSIV is the right answer when your context is voice-heavy (driving, cooking, walking, kids on your lap), when you live and organize as a couple, family, or small team and need real-time shared lists, when you want hierarchical folders deeper than two levels without a complex setup, and when you want collaboration in the free plan without paying $5/user/month. TAMSIV's conversational AI splits multi-item sentences into separate tasks, memos, and calendar events automatically.
When to choose Todoist
Todoist is the right answer when you need consistent cross-platform support (iOS, macOS, Linux, web), when you're an individual power user with a heavy Karma/streak workflow, when you rely on third-party integrations (Slack, Gmail, Notion sync, Zapier), and when typed natural language ('every Monday at 10am') is your primary capture method. Todoist excels at personal productivity rituals and has a deeper ecosystem of plugins.
Can I migrate from Todoist to TAMSIV?
Direct import is not available yet (Todoist export is JSON, TAMSIV is rebuilding import in v1.34). For now, the recommended path is to start fresh: dictate your active projects to TAMSIV in a single voice session and let the AI structure them into folders. Most users find they only carry over 20-30% of items, because Todoist accumulation includes tasks that no longer matter.
Frequently asked questions
Is TAMSIV cheaper than Todoist?
TAMSIV is free with real collaboration in the free plan. Pro is €4.99/month, Team is €8.99/month. Todoist Free has limits on projects and collaborators; Todoist Pro is $5/month/user, Business is $8/user/month. For a family of 4 sharing lists, TAMSIV Free covers what Todoist would charge $20/month for.
Does Todoist support voice?
Todoist accepts typed natural language and integrates with Siri Shortcuts and Google Assistant for basic reminders. It does not have a conversational AI that creates multiple structured items from a single voice utterance. TAMSIV is voice-first by design: press, speak naturally, AI extracts tasks/memos/events.
Can both apps work offline?
Todoist works offline for browsing and creating items, syncing when connected. TAMSIV browsing works offline, but the voice assistant requires an internet connection (Deepgram STT, OpenRouter LLM, OpenAI TTS).
How deep are TAMSIV folders compared to Todoist projects?
Todoist supports projects with subprojects up to 4 levels (Business plan) or 3 levels (Pro). TAMSIV supports hierarchical 'classeurs' (folders) up to 6 levels on the Team plan with no project/section distinction—everything is a folder.
Is TAMSIV available on iOS?
TAMSIV is currently Android-only. iOS is planned. If iOS is your daily driver, Todoist is the better fit for now. Sign up at tamsiv.com to be notified when iOS launches.
