Routine – Daily Planner & Routines 📅

Routine is a daily planner that blends calendar, tasks, and routines into one interface so you can design realistic days instead of endless to‑do lists. It excels at recurring routines, quick task capture, and time‑blocking, helping you turn goals into concrete blocks on your schedule.[2]

Professionals use Routine to keep both habits and projects moving without juggling multiple apps. By seeing tasks and events together, it becomes easier to commit to what matters and avoid overloading any single day.[2]

Ellie – Your AI Email Assistant ✉️

Ellie is an AI email assistant that learns your writing style from your sent messages and then drafts replies that sound like you. It reads the context of the thread, adjusts tone with one click, and supports multiple languages, all from a browser extension that lives inside your inbox.[3][5]

Founders, managers, and busy knowledge workers use Ellie to tame overflowing inboxes and reduce “reply anxiety.” Instead of starting from scratch, you review and tweak smart drafts, turning email from a time sink into a quick daily pass.[5][3]

Trevor AI – Time‑Blocking Copilot ⏱️

Trevor AI is a task and calendar assistant that automatically time‑blocks your to‑dos onto your schedule. It estimates how long tasks will take, suggests when to do them, and keeps rescheduling overdue work so your plan stays realistic as life changes.[4]

People adopt Trevor to move beyond static lists and into execution‑focused planning. With AI‑driven scheduling and progress analytics, you regain control of your day, finish more of what you start, and keep priorities visible.[4]
