Day Optimizer

Day Optimizer (DO) helps freelancers match how they spend their time to their priorities. It does this by guiding users through workflows, designed around neuroscience principles, that help freelancers decide what to work on each day, how much time to spend on each item and when to do those items. DO can automatically import appointments from multiple Google, Apple or Microsoft calendars, and allows users to define regular habits and time blocks as activities that can be scheduled into their day. In DO, tasks are special—they can be marked off as either Done Today or Done Forever, with tasks marked Done Today automatically flowing to the next day. Besides building an effective schedule, DO helps freelancers manage their priorities in real-time throughout the day by allowing them to skip commitments and calculating an Estimated Time of Accomplishment—the time when their day will end based on the remaining effort from their schedule. Both in the planning process and during the day, DO helps freelancers make the trade-off decisions required to ensure they remain focused on their priorities.
