How to Connect Microsoft To Do to AI: Manage Your Tasks by Asking

Microsoft To Do keeps your tasks in sync with Outlook. Connecting it to AI lets you plan your day in one question and capture tasks as they come up, without opening another app.

This guide shows how to connect Microsoft To Do to Viro AI, the free AI assistant with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Viro’s own model in one app, and what you can do once it’s connected.

What you can do when Microsoft To Do is connected to AI

Read and catch up:

• Read your task lists, including due dates, and completed tasks when you ask

Make changes, with your OK:

• Add a task (it goes to your default list)
• Change a task’s title, due date or notes
• Mark a task complete
• Delete a task

What it won’t do: create or rename task lists.

How to connect Microsoft To Do to AI, step by step

1. Open Viro AI at ai.viro.app, or in the iPhone, Android or Mac app, and sign in. It’s free.
2. Go to Customize → Connectors, open Microsoft To Do and select Connect to Viro.
3. Sign in with your Microsoft account and approve access. If you see “Your Microsoft administrator needs to approve this app”, ask your work or school IT admin.
4. Check that it’s connected. Back in Viro, Microsoft To Do is listed under Yours.

What to ask Microsoft To Do once it’s connected

Once it’s connected, just ask in any chat. Use your own names and dates.

Your day

• “What’s on my to-do list today?”
• “What’s overdue?”

Adding and finishing

• “Add ‘book flights’ to my tasks.”
• “Mark ‘call the bank’ as done.”

Across your apps

Viro reads all your connected to-do apps together, so “what’s due today?” covers Todoist, TickTick, Google Tasks, Microsoft To Do and Asana at once. When you add a task and more than one is connected, Viro asks where to put it. With Outlook Calendar: “Do I have time today for everything on my list?”

Does the AI change Microsoft To Do without asking?

No. Before Viro adds, changes, completes or deletes a task, it shows a card marked Needs your OK. Nothing changes until you select the card’s button, such as Add task or Mark done, and you can Edit the title, date or notes first. A deleted task can’t be brought back, so read that card carefully.

Is it private?

Viro reads your Microsoft To Do data only to answer what you ask. It is never used to train AI models and Viro never sells your data. Free-plan ads are matched to words in the current conversation, never to your identity or your connected apps, and no human reads your chats.

To disconnect, open Microsoft To Do in Customize → Connectors and select Disconnect, and remove Viro from your Microsoft account’s app permissions, or at myapps.microsoft.com for a work or school account.
