Daily Tasks & Routines
How tasks are generated, tracked, and completed.
Daily Tasks & Routines provide users with small, achievable wellbeing actions that help build consistency, reflection, and resilience over time. These tasks can be surfaced in your app to create gentle daily habits that support mental health.
What Daily Tasks Are
Daily tasks are lightweight wellbeing actions such as:
a short mindfulness exercise
a grounding technique
a reflection prompt
a CBT micro-task
a small self-care reminder
a breathing or relaxation activity
These tasks are intentionally simple so they can fit into any user’s day with minimal friction.
How Tasks Work in therappai
The API provides a set of daily tasks for each user. Your app can:
fetch today’s tasks
display them in your UI
mark a task as completed
track completion history
This allows you to build:
streak features
daily check-ins
progress summaries
personalised routines
The system is purposefully minimal so you can shape the UX however you want.
Typical Developer Integrations
Most applications use Daily Tasks in one of the following ways:
1. Daily Check-In Screen
Show the user:

their status

Perfect for morning or evening routines.
2. Task Feed or Carousel
Display tasks in a list or card layout alongside:
AI therapy suggestions
mood prompts
content recommendations
3. Progress Tracking
Use task completions to show:
streaks

This works well in dashboards or wellbeing reports.
