Visual planning tools for neurodivergent individuals

The AI-powered app helps to break down and manage tasks

Spotted: Neurodivergent individuals could be one of the workplace’s largest untapped resources, and helping colleagues who are not neurotypical learn and work in a way that suits them has the potential to unlock many benefits for both businesses and individuals. Now, Danish startup Tiimo has developed a tool that helps towards this goal.

The startup’s app provides a colourful, simple-to-navigate method for helping people manage their regular tasks by supporting their executive functioning skills. Whether it is a morning checklist for getting to work on time or help focusing on a single task for a set period of time, Tiimo helps.

Designed and built by two neurodivergent entrepreneurs and mums based in Denmark, Tiimo makes time visible. In the app, colour-coded timelines and personalised icons make every task, whether daily or sporadic, easily recognisable. Artificial intelligence creates instant, easily accessible checklists for any job, whether it be a child-related routine, self-care, or work project.

Users create task lists and deadlines and then use the range of tools in the app to design their own method for achieving those goals. To help specifically with focus, the company provides monthly body double sessions. People log in to work towards completing a particular task while others also do their assignments and tasks. Additionally, a number of free live events are offered as resources on a variety of topics, including sensory overwhelm, communication, and dating.
