Canny.Day: an AI daily planner that turns your to-do list into time blocks

A developer is building Canny.Day, an app that uses AI to convert a list of tasks into a realistic daily schedule with time blocks. You enter what you need to do, and the AI figures out when to fit it all in.

Many people have long to-do lists but struggle to plan when exactly they will do each task. Canny.Day aims to fix this by letting users input their tasks, then having AI estimate how long each will take and slot them into the day as time blocks. The project is currently an early-stage side project shared on Reddit's SideProject community. The AI-powered scheduling space already has several competitors, so standing out will be the key challenge ahead.

Key points

  • Enter tasks and AI builds a time-blocked daily schedule for you
  • AI estimates realistic durations for each task
  • Currently early-stage, shared as a side project
  • The AI scheduling app market already has strong competition
