The problem

Someone in your family is carrying most of life admin on their shoulders. Are you that someone?

The dentist said come back in six months. Daughters passport expires next March. The boiler needs servicing before winter. The swim registration opens in February. The water filter is overdue. The car insurance renews on the 14th.

This is life admin — the invisible work of tracking dozens of recurring obligations across every family member, every category, various time horizons. In most families, majority of it lives in between one person's head, random notes, reminders, calendar events and sticky notes. Recursa smartly puts them in singular, privacy first, place.

One place for everything that comes back.

GTD-inspired horizons

Your home screen shows what matters now — overdue items, this week, this month, coming up — not an overwhelming list of everything you'll ever need to do.

How it works

Three habits. Zero transcription.

01

Capture everything

Whenever an obligation appears — at the doctor's office, in the mail, during a conversation — dump it into the inbox. Title only is enough.

"Olivia dentist 6mo" → Inbox
02

Clarify when ready

When you have a quiet moment, process your inbox. Assign each item a person, category, cadence, and timing — hard date or fuzzy window. Recursa does the rest.

Health · Olivia · Every 6mo · Q3 window
03

Trust the system

Items surface automatically when their window arrives. Complete them, and Recursa schedules the next occurrence. No January transcription. No forgotten passports. Peace of mind.

✓ Done → Next: Q1 2027

Not everything has a deadline.

Life admin items have different relationships with time. Recursa understands all of them.

Hard date

By March 15, 2027

Passports, licenses, insurance renewals. Real deadlines with real consequences. Recursa counts down and alerts you with lead time.

→ Passport renewal, Car inspection
Seasonal window

Sometime in summer

Boiler service, garden prep, gutter cleaning. No exact date needed — just the right season. Recursa surfaces these when the window opens.

→ Boiler maintenance, AC service
Quarterly window

During Q1

The dentist said "come back in the new year." Blood work before spring. School registration before term. A window, not a wall.

→ Dentist follow-up, Blood work
Flexible

When you get to it

Replace the water filter. Check the smoke detectors. Rotate the mattress. Important but not time-critical. Visible, never nagging.

→ Water filter, Smoke detector batteries
