Capture Every Thought,
Before It Disappears

Hummingbird is a small capture app for people with ADHD, busy minds, and thoughts that vanish the second another app asks you to make three decisions.

Your Brain Is Not a Filing Cabinet

Ideas come fast. Remembering where you put them should not become another job.

Thoughts Vanish

That useful thought you had while making coffee? Gone by the time you unlock your phone and choose the right place for it.

Too Many Apps

To-do apps, note apps, reminder apps. Which one was that thing in again?

Mental Overhead

For ADHD brains, deciding where something belongs can be enough friction to lose it completely.

One app. Less friction.

Open, type or speak, done.

No folders, no categories, no decision tree at capture time. Hummingbird lets you dump the thought first, then tidies up in the background.

Instant Capture

Open the app, type or speak, done. No setup ritual, no project picker, no blank-page ceremony.

Automatic AI Organization

Apple Intelligence and Foundation Models improve automatic categorization, text splitting, and voice cleanup when available. When those features are turned off or unavailable, Hummingbird continues to use its existing custom on-device Core ML model.

Privacy First

Everything stays on your device. No cloud sync, no data collection, no tracking. Your thoughts are yours.

Built for how your brain works

Fast capture, gentle structure, calmer follow-through.

Quick Text & Voice Capture

Type or speak your thoughts before they evaporate. The app opens straight to capture, because that first second matters.

Automatic AI Categorization

Hummingbird sorts entries in the background as To-Dos, Ideas, or unsorted notes, while keeping processing on-device.

Focus Queue

Focus Queue floats a few curated entries when you need somewhere to start, so you can avoid the overwhelm of staring at everything at once.

Smart Reminders & Recurring Tasks

Natural language parsing understands "tomorrow at 3pm" or "every Monday," so reminders can be captured in the same messy words you already use.

Rich Notes & Tags

Add notes and tags when you have the energy. Skip them when you do not.
