What task managers, AI assistants and ADHD apps do with your work, what they still ask of you and how Koala approaches the planning around it.
Two people can both be correctly diagnosed with ADHD and share almost no symptoms, because the criteria are two lists of nine and you only need five on either one. That is why Koala starts from how you actually work rather than from a diagnosis.
Half of what you have committed to is already written down somewhere: last week's meeting notes, a calendar invite, an email you meant to reply to. This routine checks all three once a week and adds whatever is missing to your plan, so Monday starts with everything accounted for instead of you trying to remember it.
Connect Koala to Claude or any AI assistant over MCP by adding one URL. Once connected, your assistant can see your plan, add work to it and log what you finish.
Habit trackers rarely work for ADHD brains, and the research explains why. What helps instead: cues, immediate reward and counting frequency rather than streaks.
A capacity-first method for planning a workday with ADHD: plan fewer things, anchor them to energy, make starting cheap and let unfinished days expire without guilt.
What users and reviewers consistently recommend as the best ADHD apps for work in 2026: Tiimo, Llama Life, Sunsama, Structured, Amazing Marvin, Saner.AI and Koala, matched to the problem each one is praised for solving.
An honest head-to-head of four ADHD-friendly work tools. Tiimo builds visual routines, Sunsama runs a daily planning ritual, Motion auto-schedules your calendar, and Koala is the one built specifically for ADHD at work, turning what you say into a planned day. Here's the gap none of the others fill.
An honest answer from someone who tried most of the ADHD apps: they make you the maintenance engine. Why pretty colours and streaks aren't design, and what carrying the load actually looks like.
A plain-English UK guide to reasonable adjustments for ADHD under the Equality Act 2010: what counts, what actually helps, how to ask, how Access to Work funds tools and whether software like Koala qualifies.
