History[edit]
Any.do was first launched in November 2011. Within 30 days Any.do reached 500,000 downloads.[1][2] By November 2013, Any.do reached over 7M users,[3] over 10 million users in March 2014, 15 million in November 2016 and 30 million users by 2020. Any.do extended its offering beyond its original to do list / task management functionality with a built in calendar, and a personal assistant service that can complete the user's tasks.[4]
Any.do was co-founded by Omer Perchik, Yoni Lindenfeld, and Itay Kahana. It has offices in both Tel Aviv and San Francisco.
Prior to Any.do, co-founders Omer Perchik, Itay Kahana and Yoni Lindenfeld launched a simpler version of the app on Android called Taskos.[5]

In July 2013, Any.do released their second app, Cal for iPhone, .[31] Cal for Android was later released in December 2013.[32] Like Any.do, Cal was an interactive, gesture-based calendar app with social integrations.

Design[edit]
On October 9, 2013, The Verge reported Any.do to be the one of the main inspirations behind Jony Ive's iOS 7 redesign, and others have noted its similarities to the revamped Apple operating system.[38][39]
Funding[edit]
Any.do announced $1 million in angel funding in November 2011.[1]
By May 2013 the company had raised $3.5 million from Genesis Partners, Eric Schmidt’s Innovation Endeavors, Blumberg Capital, Joe Lonsdale of Palantir Technologies, Brian Koo of Formation 8, Joe Greenstein of Flixter, and Felicis Ventures.[40] The company raised additional unannounced funding from a group of strategic investors including Jerry Yang of AME Cloud Ventures and Steve Chen of YouTube, among others, by October of that same year.[38]
