2-b.ai

2-b.ai is a browser-based AI to-do manager that instantly turns whatever you are looking at into structured tasks, with almost no manual work. After installing a lightweight browser extension, you can drag across text in Gmail, a spec in Google Docs, a page in Notion, or other common web tools. The AI immediately converts that context into an organized to-do, often with subtasks. A built-in AI chat panel sits alongside your work, letting you create, refine, or delete tasks in plain language. The core idea is simple: shrink the gap between seeing work and capturing it.

• Zero-setup browser extension: Works in major browsers and on popular web tools such as Gmail, Google Docs, and Notion (web version), so you can start creating AI-generated tasks directly from the pages where your work already lives.
• Drag-to-task capture: With a single drag across a paragraph, email, or ticket, the tool detects intent and converts the selection into a structured to-do item.
• AI-powered task breakdown: The underlying models analyze captured context and split it into smaller actionable steps, helping you avoid manually outlining long checklists.
• AI task chat assistant: A built-in chat helps you create, edit, link, and delete tasks using natural language, keeping the to-do list updated without hunting through menus.
• Calendar integration: Google Calendar import connects your existing schedule with the task system, and more productivity integrations are on the roadmap.
• Security-focused AI stack: Uses GPAI-compliant models and follows EU AI regulations around privacy and copyright, aiming to keep personal and work content safer.

1. Install the 2-b.ai browser extension from the relevant web store (Chrome, Firefox, etc.).
2. Navigate to any supported web page, such as Gmail, Google Docs, or Notion.
3. Drag your cursor across a paragraph, email, or specification text to select the content you want to action.
4. The extension instantly converts the highlighted text into a structured to-do item (often with subtasks) displayed in a side panel.
5. Use the integrated AI chat panel to refine, add, link, or delete tasks using natural language commands.
6. (Pro users) Connect Google Calendar to merge your to-do list with existing time blocks and meetings.

• A web-based account management portal is available for plan settings and integrations like Google Calendar.
• No standalone desktop or mobile app at this time; the experience is built entirely around the browser extension.

• Highlight exactly the paragraph that contains the request or action item; the AI uses that text as its primary context for generating subtasks.
• Use the AI chat to quickly bulk-edit tasks, for example “mark all tasks related to Q3 as done” or “move everything from this project to tomorrow”.
• Link related tasks by asking the chat to connect them, rather than manually organizing.
• Don’t worry about perfect prompts – short, conversational phrases like “break this into steps” or “ask me about priorities” work well.
• Combine drag-to-capture with Google Calendar integration to place tasks in real time slots with minimal friction.

• Knowledge workers who live in the browser and want to capture tasks the moment they appear, without opening a separate app.
• Startup founders and small teams looking for a lightweight way to turn scattered conversations into a clear action list.
• Product managers and project leads who regularly read specs, tickets, and feedback in web tools and need quick task breakdowns.
• Freelancers and consultants who manage client work primarily through email, docs, and web-based research.
• Privacy-conscious professionals who prefer a tool aligned with EU AI regulations and GPAI compliance.
• Non-technical users who appreciate a visual drag gesture and plain-language chat instead of complex productivity setups.
