Product

Everything you need to run your day

Three simple ideas—calendar planning, categories with points, and honest analytics—work together to keep you focused.

Daily calendar

Plan around today, not an endless backlog

Tasks live on the date you plan them. Open the app and see exactly what fits today—move or drop leftovers on purpose instead of drowning in an ever-growing list.

  • Date-based planning view
  • Drag leftovers forward intentionally
  • Zero setup to get started
Plan around today, not an endless backlog

Categories & points

Separate work, health, and life at a glance

Group tasks into Work, Health, Personal—or your own labels. Weight each category so your daily score reflects real effort, not just how many boxes you ticked.

  • Custom, color-coded categories
  • Category-weighted point system
  • See where your time really goes

Analytics

Proof of progress, week over week

Trends by day and category show when admin work quietly ate your week—so you can adjust before burnout hits instead of after.

  • Daily and category trends
  • Spot burnout patterns early
  • History that stays yours
