This is so close to what I was looking for!

Feature Request: Sub-tasks The first interface I use to create tasks is always an outliner, that way I can quickly breakdown everything that needs to be done and add details about their implementation. This is close to mindmaps as shown in your demo, but a text based outliner is faster to type, edit, rearrange in. Having Subtasks would allow an approximation of this.

Also, please start charging for it.

Thank you. Right now we have checklists ;) Full-featured "subtasks" is a very interesting matter and we are working an a default support for that. Currently, you might "implement" this by adding a references called "subtasks". You also could create an aggregation to sum up costs/time estimates of these subtasks.
Yes would also love subtasks, start with a skeleton then add the detailed meat of the work like how the interface works with https://workflowy.com
Yes, this. Thanks area51 and Zenkit for reading my mind!
