Taskbat texts, calls, escalates, and reports back — using the rules you choose, so important tasks actually get done.
You choose the rules. Taskbat follows them. Nothing escalates unless you set it up.
A reminder you can swipe away isn't accountability. Taskbat climbs a ladder — each rung harder to ignore than the last.
A light nudge, well before the deadline. Easy to act on, easy to ignore — for now.
Deadline's closing. The tone sharpens. "This isn't going away — what's blocking you?"
Texting clearly isn't working. Taskbat rings you and gets a commitment — or offers to handle it.
Last chance before Taskbat tells the accountability partner you named. Suddenly it's real.
Not your grocery list. The stuff with real consequences.
The reason every productivity system dies is data entry. Taskbat's is a conversation.
Tell Taskbat what's on your plate in plain speech. It pulls out the tasks, deadlines, and who's on the hook.
Specific, well-timed, and reply-able — "done 2" closes it, "snooze 2 1d" buys a day. No app to open.
Short, structured calls — is it done, what's blocking, when will you do it. Never open-ended, capped at 3 minutes.
Name a partner and Taskbat only loops them in as a last resort — the threat does most of the work.
A positive mirror for you (and optionally your partner): what got done, what got rescued, what's still open.
Taskbat logs what actually moves you — which channel, which tone, what time — and leans on what works.
The bat nags your kids, so you don't have to. You stay the ally; it plays the heavy.
"Feed the chickens by 4" goes from your dashboard to their phone — and nothing lands until they reply OK. Their list, their agreement, the bat's follow-through.
Every member (13+) joins only by replying YES to one invitation — parents attest for teens, and every step is recorded. Nobody is ever messaged who didn't agree.
Kids are text-only — the bat never calls a minor. It talks about tasks and nothing else — G-rated, no exceptions, and it never touches faith, politics, or anything you wouldn't want. Hard rules, not settings.
One household plan — $29/month — covers you plus up to five family members, with 500 texts a month across the household.
“I've bought every planner and app there is. The difference is a phone that actually rings. You can't archive a ringing phone.”
Sign up and Taskbat calls you in the next minute for your first check-in. That call is all the setup there is.
Only if it nags about things that don't matter. Taskbat earns the right to be persistent by being right — it only escalates on things you told it mattered, and it backs off the moment you handle them. Annoying is a to-do list you forgot you had.
That's the point of the ladder. Ignoring a bot is free — so Taskbat raises the stakes until it isn't. The last rung loops in a real person you chose, and honestly, most tasks get done at the "I'm about to tell Sarah" warning.
You tell it, out loud, on a call. Taskbat listens, pulls out the commitments and deadlines, and remembers them. No typing, no forms, no setup screens.
Instantly. Say so on any call, reply STOP to any text, or cancel from your dashboard. You're always in control of who gets contacted and when — including quiet hours it never calls through.
No. Partners are the last resort, they're only ever told an outcome (not your private details), and Taskbat warns you first every time. The threat is the feature — it rarely has to actually make the call.
Nothing breaks. Calls pause until your month resets, text nudges keep going, and Taskbat tells you it's happening. Your weekly check-in is separate — it never counts against your calls. You'll never get a surprise bill for an extra phone call.
