Designed for How Ideas Actually Happen

Ideas don't arrive pre-organized. They come in bursts—half-formed thoughts, scattered reminders, and sudden insights. Dump embraces this reality. Instead of forcing you to structure tasks before capturing them, Dump lets you dump everything naturally and handles the organization automatically.

This removes the "organize later" guilt that plagues traditional task apps. With Dump, there is no later— clarity happens instantly, letting you focus on doing rather than organizing.
