1

Export your Todoist data

In Todoist, go to Settings > Integrations > Export as template. Download your tasks as a CSV file to preserve all your task data, due dates, and project organization.

2

Sign up for TaskGuru free account

Create your free TaskGuru account at taskguru.so. No credit card required - get instant access to unlimited team collaboration and 7 boards.

3

Create project boards in TaskGuru

Set up boards for each of your Todoist projects. Use TaskGuru's color coding and emoji labels to visually organize your different project areas.

4

Import your tasks manually or recreate them

Add your tasks to the appropriate boards in TaskGuru. Take advantage of TaskGuru's immediate board feature to prioritize urgent tasks from all projects.

5

Set up team collaboration (if needed)

Invite team members to relevant boards using unlimited invites. Assign tasks and start using TaskGuru's contextual chat feature tied to specific tasks.

6

Configure your immediate board

Add high-priority tasks from all projects to your immediate board. This gives you Todoist's today view but better - see urgent tasks from all projects simultaneously.
