Generate Projects from To-Do Lists with AI

Generate Projects from To-Do Lists with AI

FocusBox’s AI-powered project generation allows you to turn a simple to-do list into a fully structured project. Instead of manually assigning durations, breaks, and priority levels, you can let AI do the work.

How It Works

  1. Go to the Project Creation Panel by clicking "+ Create".
  2. Select “Generate from To-Do List”.
  3. Enter your list of tasks (one per line).
  4. AI will:
  • Structure tasks into a workflow.
  • Assign durations automatically.
  • Add relevant breaks for focus optimization.
  • Suggest ambient sounds for deep work.
  1. Review, customize, and start your project instantly.

Example AI Prompts for To-Do List Conversion

🔹 General Productivity & Daily Tasks

  • "Sort my to-do list into a structured project with 25-minute tasks and 5-minute breaks."
  • "Create a project from my to-do list with priority-based time slots."
  • "Organize my daily work into 3 deep work sessions with breaks in between."

🔹 Work & Project Management

  • "Convert my task list into a structured project with estimated durations and breaks."
  • "Generate a task workflow for completing a report with research, drafting, editing, and submission stages."
  • "Organize my meeting agenda into separate focus sessions with preparation, discussion, and follow-ups."

🔹 Study & Learning

  • "Turn my study plan into structured sessions with Pomodoro timers."
  • "Generate a to-do list for exam preparation with scheduled review sessions and practice tests."
  • "Structure my learning tasks into a 3-hour focused study block with relaxation breaks."

🔹 Personal Development & Routines

  • "Create a structured daily habit tracker with time slots for exercise, reading, and mindfulness."
  • "Organize my fitness goals into a weekly workout plan with recovery days."
  • "Generate a journaling and reflection routine with structured writing sessions."

Customizing Your AI-Generated Project

Once AI generates a structured project, you can:

  • Edit task names and durations.
  • Rearrange the task order using drag-and-drop.
  • Add or remove breaks based on your workflow.
  • Change the background image and ambient sound for better focus.

Why Use AI for To-Do Lists?

  • Save time by automating task structuring.
  • Transform unorganized notes into a workflow.
  • Prioritize and schedule tasks efficiently.
  • Improve focus with structured breaks and task durations.
  • Reduce decision fatigue by letting AI plan your tasks.
