Planzu

Capture freely. Decide deliberately.

A GTD system that doesn't force you to know what something is before you capture it—and doesn't let you forget to revisit it with clearer intent.

This is Planzu

A calm system for capturing work without pressure, and returning to it with clarity.

Contexts & Goals

Organize by where work happens (@desk, @errands, @home) or what it's for. Color-coded, flexible, and easy to adjust as your thinking evolves. No rigid hierarchies.

Weekly review with reflection

Reflective Review

When you're ready to review, Planzu offers optional prompts from 159 different voices—Stoic, Zen, Jazz, Street Smarts, Restaurant Kitchen, and more. Not prescriptive. Just perspective.

Later view with ticklers

Someday & Ticklers

Capture ideas that aren't ready yet. Set ticklers to surface work when it actually matters. Your system holds it, so your mind doesn't have to.

Privacy-First Design

Most productivity apps track everything you do to "optimize your experience." Planzu doesn't.

No Tracking

Planzu doesn't track what you do, when you do it, or how you work. No analytics. No behavioral profiling. Your workflow is your business.

Local-First Storage

Your data stays on your device. Optional iCloud sync is encrypted end-to-end. No servers processing your tasks. No third parties.

One-Time Purchase

$19.99. No subscription. No upsells. No "premium features" locked behind paywalls. You own it.

Cross-Platform

Works on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Same app, same data, synced via iCloud. Capture on your phone, review on your Mac.

What Makes Planzu Different

Random Selection, Not Algorithmic Matching

The reflective prompts you see? They're randomly selected from 159 philosophical traditions. Sometimes the unexpected perspective is exactly what you need.

Actually Useful for Boring Stuff

Long-press any context header to copy its items to your clipboard. Share your shopping list via text. Paste your meeting agenda into email. Plain text. Just works.

No Gamification

No streaks. No points. No badges. No dopamine manipulation. Just a clean system for capturing work and returning to it with clearer intent.

Built by One Person

Self-financed. No investors. No growth pressure. No pivot to subscriptions. Just a tool built to solve a real problem.
