When to use Doozy with Codex

When you already pay for a ChatGPT subscription and want to put it to work on real tasks. Doozy gives Codex a to-do list, the context behind each task, and agents that follow through. You pay your AI provider directly at cost instead of a per-seat markup.

When to use Codex by itself

For quick one-off coding tasks in the terminal that don't need tracking or team visibility. If it doesn't need to be a to-do, Codex on its own is fine.

How to use them together

Connect your Codex subscription in Doozy's settings. Choose Codex as the model for any agent or to-do. Your subscription covers the AI usage, and Doozy handles everything around it: tasks, context, memory, and approval before anything consequential goes out.

The more you use it, the better Doozy gets at understanding how you work. Your Codex-powered agents learn your voice, preferences, and priorities over time.

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect my Codex subscription?

Open workspace settings, choose Connect Codex, and sign in with your OpenAI account. One step.

Does this actually save me money?

Yes. You pay your ChatGPT subscription directly, and Doozy doesn't add a model-usage charge on top. The core product is free for up to five people.

Do Codex runs work when my laptop is closed?

Not yet for subscription access (it still uses the desktop connector). If you need that, saved provider keys like OpenRouter run on Doozy's servers instead.

Can I pick Codex for just one agent?

Yes. Choose Codex as the model provider per agent or per to-do. Other work can use a different provider.

Can the Codex CLI read my Doozy to-dos?

Yes. Add Doozy as an MCP server in the Codex CLI with your API key and ask it to list your active to-dos.

How many apps does Doozy connect to?

1,000+ through Composio.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, web, CLI, API, MCP.
