Todoist hits record revenue as top AI user explains why he won't vibe-code a to-do app

Responding to claims that AI should hurt to-do apps, Todoist founder amix3k says the company has broken records for both revenue and usage, with growth reaccelerating—software is far from dead, and AI's value will move to the app layer.
Top AI user eptwts agrees: despite being in the top 1% of AI users worldwide, he pays $7/month for Todoist because vibe-coding one and syncing it with his team isn't worth the effort. Only people building 12+ SaaS products a year price their building time at zero. He notes there are billions in turning 2-click solutions into 1-click ones—frictionless solutions keep winning.
