  For those who seek help escaping a recency- or urgency-driven life, Amplenote warrants consideration. We provide a [mini-Eisenhower Matrix](https://images.amplenote.com/96c65ff2-98c1-11ea-8cbd-ba8f9d97df1f/62081ff7-f3ed-448b-9133-e3bc69e00df3.png)  baked into every task you create. It gently surfaces the most relevant tasks as time passes. We also provide the means to estimate the task's time (i.e., its cost), so your list doesn't grow cluttered with trifling affairs. Finally, [we integrate with both Google Calendar and Outlook](https://www.amplenote.com/blog/new_features_sync_todo_list_with_calendar_and_email) , so when you're ready to set a starting time for your task, you can schedule it from within your note. Soon, we'll allow fully synced drag-and-drop task scheduling between your note(s) and calendar(s). 
  
  "Task Score" is the unit that we use to make sense of complex, overlapping opportunities that [might span multiple to-do lists](https://www.amplenote.com/blog/unified_todo_list_captures_all_tasks_in_all_notes) . Each task can have different properties assigned, which cause Task Score to accumulate at varying rates, so Future You sees the most relevant tasks first:

  We also support [backlinking/bidirectional linking](https://www.amplenote.com/blog/bidirectional_note_linking_and_an_offer_for_roam_exporters) , and by extension, the [Zettelkasten method](https://eugeneyan.com/2020/04/05/note-taking-zettelkasten/)  currently [popular among Roam users](https://www.amplenote.com/best_roam_research_alternative_amplenote_bidirectional_linking) . Amplenote is available as an [installable app]()  on macOS, Linux, and Windows. We're also in both app stores. 📱👍
