Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We've got answers.

Fair question. We're big believers in the GTD system, but kept running into the same problem: apps that were either bloated with features we'd never use, or so minimal they couldn't support a real workflow. So we stopped waiting and built the app we actually wanted to use.

Melete is pronounced mel-ET-ee (/mɛˈlɛ.ti/), with the stress on the middle syllable — the "ET" sounds like the "et" in "pet". You can hear an audio pronunciation at pronouncenames.com/Melete.

GTD is a time management method created by David Allen that helps you capture all your tasks, organize them into actionable items, and systematically work through them. Melete implements this proven framework to help you stay organized and stress-free.

Our AI assistant analyzes your tasks, projects, and workflows to provide intelligent suggestions for prioritization, task breakdown, and productivity optimization. It helps you process your inbox, suggesting what to do with each item (while you remain in control), and guides you through weekly reviews.

We protect your data the way we do our own. Your Melete data is stored safely in our database, and is only accessible by you. We never store emails from your linked accounts, only reading them to help you process your inbox. Communication with the AI assistant is encrypted, and your data is never used for training or any other purpose. And your payment details are handled securely by Stripe.

The Pricing page has all the details. You can get started for as little as $8 a month, with discounts for annual subscriptions. All plans start with a 14 day trial so you can check everythign out before your first payment.

We'll admit we're pretty excited about the AI assistant — but we get it, not everyone wants AI in their productivity tools. Melete offers an AI-free plan at a reduced cost for those who prefer a straightforward GTD experience without the extra smarts.

Melete is available as a web application that works on all modern browsers. We're also developing native mobile apps for iOS and Android to help you stay productive on the go.
