Ellie Planner

Velocity0.0

AI-powered daily planner combining tasks and calendar with natural-language task entry and integrations

Solo-built daily planner adds an AI assistant and more calendar/tool integrations.

daily-planningai-assistantcalendarintegrationssolo-dev
Current state
Ellie is a solo-developer daily-planning app that combines calendar time-boxing, task capture, and a growing set of integrations. The most consequential recent addition is a built-in AI assistant on mobile and desktop; the changelog itself is candid and irregular, updated in bursts.
Where it's heading
Ellie is expanding along two lines: an AI assistant layered onto the planner, and a widening web of integrations (Todoist, Notion, Slack, Outlook/Apple calendars). The direction is a connected personal-planning hub, paced by a single maker's availability.
Prediction
Expect the AI assistant to take on more planning and time-boxing work, and continued integration additions; release timing will stay irregular given the solo cadence.
