The productivity layer
Obsidian doesn't have

One plugin. Tasks, meetings, projects, AI, and agents. All in your vault as markdown.

Stop assembling your productivity stack

Five plugins, two external apps, and a glue layer that breaks every update. Pensum replaces the assembly with one opinionated system.

Capture everything, instantly

Cmd+Shift+A. Type naturally. Priority, date, tags, and project parsed automatically.

Select text in any note, Cmd+Shift+T. Task created with a link back. No context switching.

See your work, every angle

Ten views: Today, Inbox, Forecast, Calendar, By Project, Search, Activity, Filters, and more.

Click to edit. Right-click to reschedule. Drag to move between days.

Every meeting becomes actionable

Record. Transcribe with speaker identification. AI summarizes key topics and decisions. Action items extracted with source timestamps.

Four clicks from audio to tasks in your vault.

Agent-native from day one

MCP server with 14 tools for Claude Desktop and Claude Code. CLI for terminal workflows.

Your AI agents don't just read your tasks. They participate in the workflow.

AI that augments, never replaces

Every AI feature is user-initiated, draft-first, and provenance-marked. You always know what's yours.

Smart Capture

AI in Quick Add understands your projects and resolves dates from context. It's a parser, not an author.

Smart Triage

One click suggests which project each inbox task belongs to. Accept or skip, per task.

Meeting Intelligence

Summarization and action extraction from transcripts. Source timestamps link back to the conversation.

Provenance

AI content is structurally marked with [!ai-generated] callouts. Visually distinct. Queryable by agents.

Built for how you actually work

Product Managers

5-8 meetings a day. Pensum captures meetings, extracts tasks, and surfaces them alongside project work.

Independent Operators

Multiple clients, each with context. Per-client project pages. Meeting prep surfaces relevant history.

Technical Leads

Claude Code queries your vault via MCP. CLI drives workflows from the terminal. Complements team tracking.

Your vault is the source of truth

No proprietary format. No required cloud service. No vendor lock-in. Removing Pensum leaves your vault fully functional.
