Break down overwhelming tasks with AI

“Sort out the investor update” isn't a task — it's a fog bank. Magic Breakdown turns one messy phrase into a handful of concrete first moves, each sized in minutes, so starting stops being the hard part.

Demo: type one messy phrase and MyGlyde’s Magic Breakdown turns it into three small, concrete first moves; checking one off builds your streak and earns credits.

The capture box open over Today with one unfiltered sentence typed in — 'sort out the whole tax situation ugh 45 min' — and a chip underneath showing the 45 minutes it read out of the phrase automatically.
Before — one sentence, however it arrived.
The same tax sentence turned into three numbered first moves: 'Open the folder where this lives' at ~2m, 'Write the first sentence or line' at ~10m, and 'Do the single smallest visible piece' at ~15m.
After — three moves small enough to start.
Three concrete first moves returned on a phone, each with its own small time estimate, under the single messy sentence they came from.
And the same, one-thumbed, wherever the thought landed.

The real thing — captured from the live app, not a mockup.

One phrase in, first moves out

Type the vague thing exactly as it lives in your head. AI proposes the first few physical actions — find the email, list the numbers, draft one sentence — never a wall of subtasks.

Sized to start

Every move carries a minutes-level estimate, and the app learns your personal estimate bias over time. Two honest minutes beats thirty aspirational ones.

Momentum compounds

Finish a first move and the next one is already small. Effort earns credits toward your Reward Menu whether or not the whole project lands today.
