Show HN: Tiny Talking Todos – Bring AI reasoning to your family's context

It's about this time each week my partner and I start to figure out our routines. Meal plans, kid logistics, errands. We used to capture it in Reminders, but the Reminders were never that actionable. Cook when, where’s the party, what’s on the shopping list?

Talkies is like a co-pilot for your shared todo lists. Think GPTs + v0 + Airtable + Siri. It’s my idea of a TaskOS, where you can create the perfect context for agents, while keeping your data portable and in your control.

What makes it different: Uses the new Gemini 2.0 Flash and Flash thinking models - Lists are React components, customisable using Flash Thinking - Multimodal: Use voice, text, webcam, screen share, links and photos - Voice control for the whole app, even when off screen - Private: Direct connection with your services in browser, conversations aren't persisted

How we use it: We do our meal planning in Talkies across 5 lists. I upload recipes using links and photos. I then use the “Think” button to help generate the shopping list with Flash Thinking. My favourite template is "Batch" - it combines multiple recipes into a single set of todos. The voice assistant reads out steps from all combined recipes, making batch cooking actually manageable.

Technical details: - Built on tinybase.org for the reactive data store. The “Tiny” in the name is a hat tip. - Uses Cloudflare durable objects for instant sync, very easy with tinybase.

Looking for feedback on: 1. What kinds of lists would be useful for your family? 2. UX and interface design 3. Thoughts on the BYO API keys approach Questions I have: 1. For those using family-shared todo/planning apps - what are your pain points around context-switching between different types of tasks? Very happy to answer any of yours!
