Why Attunio exists About Us

Attunio was founded in response to a simple concern: modern cloud software has made collaboration easier than ever, but often at the cost of privacy. Too many tools require users to place their ideas, plans, and personal workflows on someone else’s servers, trusting that sensitive information will be handled responsibly after it has already left their control.

Attunio was built on a different belief: private work should stay private. Attunio is designed as a solo, local-first experience. It is not a collaborative platform, and that is intentional. What you create in Attunio is for you alone.

Our privacy commitment About Us

Attunio is for you.

Your coworkers cannot see it. We cannot see it. Beyond delivering the web application to your browser, Attunio does not transmit data. Your information, preferences, and settings are stored locally in your browser, where they remain under your control.

That means your data does not pass through our servers, does not become part of internet traffic, and is never collected, inspected, or retained by us. This is not simply a policy choice. It is a product architecture choice. Attunio is built so that we do not have access to your private information at all. From the ground up, it was designed to make privacy the default, not a promise you have to take on faith.

Trust should not depend on hoping a company does the right thing behind the scenes. Trust should be built into the system itself. That is the standard Attunio was founded to uphold.

Getting started Basics

Use Inbox to capture and triage tasks, Workstreams to group related work, and Journal for longer notes.

Everything is saved locally in your browser, ensuring that your data is private.

Data Management Basics

Because your data is stored locally on your device, actions such as clearing your browser cache or cookies, switching browsers, or using a new device will create a fresh instance of the application. For that reason, we strongly recommend creating backups regularly using the Export function.

Exporting creates a JSON file that is saved to your device in a location you choose. You can later import this file to restore your data or transfer it between browsers and devices.

Important: Because your data never leaves your device, we cannot recover lost data under any circumstances. This is not simply a policy decision—it is technically impossible, because we never have access to your data.

Settings Basics

From the Settings menu, you can export your data, import data from a JSON file, or delete your data.

It is important to understand that deleting your data only clears the data stored for this application in your browser. It does not clear your browser’s cookies or cache more broadly.

You can also customize your Urgent Tasks list by choosing whether it is always shown, always hidden, or automatically hidden when no tasks are assigned to it. In addition, you can control which tasks are flagged as urgent and choose whether system logs for task and workstream updates are enabled or disabled.

Add Task Inbox

The add-task field supports inline commands that turn into chips when you type a space.

#Marketing adds a workstream
!high or !critical sets priority
@waiting sets status
due:04-24-2026, due:today, or due:+7 sets due dates

Urgent Tasks Inbox

Urgent Tasks is a configurable bucket. You can configure what types of Tasks are added to this section, and configure the section's visibility in Settings.

All Tasks Inbox

Here, you can search, filter, sort, and edit tasks. Quick actions on the right let you mark a task as complete, increase its priority, snooze it by one day or one week, update its status, or delete it. To open and edit a task, simply double-click it.

Each task includes both a description field and a comments section for logging updates. System logs can also track changes and may be enabled or disabled as needed.

Bulk Actions allow you to update multiple tasks at once, including properties such as priority.

If a task is overdue and you snooze it, the new due date will be set relative to today. For example, if a task was due a week ago and you snooze it for one week, its due date will be moved to one week from the day you snooze it.

Workstreams Workstreams

Workstreams are like parent containers with their own title, description, due date, priority, status, comments, and display preferences.

Double-click a workstream card to edit it. If a workstream does not have its own due date or priority, sorting can fall back to the most important task it contains. For example, a workstream with no assigned priority but containing a Critical task will be treated as a Critical workstream when sorting by priority.

Tasks within each workstream will appear in the same order as in the All Tasks list.

Journals Journals

Journals are for longer-form thinking, meeting notes, and reflection. Double-click a journal card to open it.

Journals do not have due dates or priorities, but they can be tagged to make sorting and searching easier. The search function on the Journals page scans the full text of each entry, making it easy to find past notes, conversations, or details later by searching for keywords.

Each journal also includes an integrated Add Task section, so you can quickly create tasks while reviewing an entry. For example, you might focus on taking notes during a 1:1 meeting, then return afterward to turn those notes into action items.

Journals can be archived, which removes them from view while keeping them saved in your browser. Deleting a journal removes it permanently and it cannot be recovered unless you have exported a local backup.
