Morning Brief
Each morning when you sign in to Cadeo, a calm bottom sheet slides up to help you start the day. It's the pair to the End-of-Day Reflection — the evening closes the day, the morning opens the next.
What you see
- Yesterday's open tasks. Anything you scheduled for yesterday but didn't tick off.
- A small "worth a look" tail. Up to 5 older overdue items that Cadeo thinks you'd still want to do today.
- Today at a glance. How many tasks are scheduled and how many events are on your calendar.
If you signed in with nothing carried over, you'll see a quick "Inbox zero from yesterday" message instead.
How the smart tail is ranked
| Where you use Cadeo | How the tail is ranked |
|---|---|
| Desktop app (any plan) | Local AI on your machine via Ollama — private, fast, free |
| Web app, Pro plan | Gemini 2.5 Flash via the cloud, with privacy filters |
| Web app, Free plan | A simple recency-and-relevance ranker — no AI calls |
The AI version may also include a one-line observation above the rows ("3 of these are about project Atlas — focus block?") to help you spot a pattern.
Per-task chips
For each row, pick where it goes:
| Chip | What happens |
|---|---|
| Tomorrow | Moves to tomorrow's schedule |
| This week | Pinned to the end of this week |
| Someday | Kept in your inbox without a date |
| Done | Already finished — just mark it complete |
Click Apply & continue when you're done. Older items not in the "worth a look" tail are quietly moved to Someday (you'll see an Undo snackbar for 8 seconds if you change your mind).
Skip vs Apply
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| Apply & continue | Your chip choices are applied. Older items move to Someday. A wrap is recorded. |
Skip (or Esc) | The sheet closes. Nothing changes. The Brief won't show again until tomorrow. |
The Brief fires once per day, per browser. If you sign out and back in on the same day, it stays dismissed.
Settings
Open Settings → Notifications → End of Day Reflection. The Morning Brief toggle controls whether the brief slides up at sign-in. It's on by default.
Why we built this
The morning login is the highest-intent moment of the day. Cadeo's goal is to make it feel calm — not a guilt-trip, not a task-list tax. One quiet sheet, decisions in 30 seconds, and you're on with your day.
