You're competing in a very crowded space.

Basically, you have remade the to-do list and from what I know, there are hundreds (or thousands) of these options available as apps/webapps, etc.

You should try zoning in on a target-market related to the product. For example, moms/wives making shopping lists, etc.

Hi, could you tell me more about why you found it to be a to-do list app? Is it because of our headline[1]? Or is it because the examples we use on the landing page?

I'm asking because we don't see it as a to-do list app, as it can accomplish more and in different ways than traditional to-do list apps. Maybe we failed at delivering this message.

[1]: "Are you struggling to keep track of everything? Put them in Dynalist and free your mind." in case you don't remember.

A list of bullet points looks like a to-do list. Remember, most people have not used an outliner like WorkFlowy. Most people would think of this as either 'a list', or 'notes'. You are not delivering any other message. Yes, we can see it's hierarchical and has tags, but those are common features.

[1]: 'everything' <--> 'them' - Your grammar needs work.
