24 alternatives to I built presently.live for better weekend planning and insights

Hi HN , my partner and I were looking for easier answers to our weekend planning ritual, such as: - When is our next free weekend? - What weekend activities have we got planned? - How busy/available are we to travel / host? Especially at the start of each year, when we're trying to plan flights and/or commit to hosting friends & family visits, I struggled to find a usable overview of multiple months that wasn't cluttered with weekdays. Our social events are overwhelmingly centered around weekends and we wanted a view of the year ahead that reflected that. How about just a line…

Presently.live is a weekend planning tool that connects to Google Calendar to show an at-a-glance view of upcoming weekends throughout the year. It displays 52 boxes representing each weekend, color-coded to indicate… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. I built presently.live for better weekend planning and insights launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

    Hi HN, I built Plan Harmony because trip planning—especially with friends or family—kept turning into a mess. We’d juggle group chats, scattered Google Docs, random links, and always miss something. I wanted a tool to help structure an itinerary, suggest smarter options, and keep everyone on the same page—without feeling like work. The idea: most travel tools either hit you with generic “Top 10 things in Rome” lists or dump everything into a calendar/map with no real structure. I wanted something in between—something that helps you actually plan a coherent trip across days, cities,…

    I had problems scheduling company get together. 3 days in next 3 months, 12 people, whats the best date for that? I've build the solution to my problem (human coded haha) and recently is started getting traction which is nice, so we added Slack integration (Claude coded). WhenNOT flips the question: instead of "when are you available?", we ask "when are you NOT available?" It's completely free - no premium tiers, no limits. I built it because I needed it for my own team.

    Ever feel exhausted by the endless back-and-forth of "When should we meet?" and "How much does everyone owe?" when organizing events with friends or family? I've been there too, and found that existing tools were either too feature-heavy or required tedious account setup. That's why I built Nowa - an event management app focused on just the essentials that works by simply sharing a URL, no registration required. Key Features No-signup invitations - Just share a URL or QR code and anyone can join instantly. I prioritized simplicity so even grandparents can use it without confusion. Intuitive…

    Hi! I'm launching https://intentions.life, a calendar designed for small habits. I used Google Calendar for 6 years, but found it hard to put small habits there, because everything takes up at least 15 minutes worth of space. It was one of the reasons my health deteriorated whenever I was too focused on writing code and talking to users for my startup. So since 2022, I spent my holidays building intentions.life. It lets me configure all my habits/chores in one place, and display them as compact bullet points. You can see the in-depth demos without logging in, and use the…

    I got tired of trying to figure out my vacation balance throughout the year, so I made this website to be a stupid simple solution. It was pretty satisfying to bang it out over a weekend. * not all holidays are supported, and probably will do some custom-holiday-in-cookie functionality, but this is a common US list. * basically only looks good on 'normal' sized browsers

    Care to share a screenshot and the 'killer feature' of any of your personal, self-built productivity tools? eg. I made my own calendar and money-tracker last year - there are no other users, it makes no money, I have no plans to make it public, but it holds my life together :) http://i.imgur.com/h2keJDg.png GREAT BECAUSE... it tells me how much I'm going to get paid this month. Absolutely no ulterior motive here (ie. I'm not canvassing opinions for a productivity app startup or anything), just interested.

    I made this app because I have such flexible schedule that I needed a tool where I can organise and structure my days efficiently. All apps I tried had title based events (you had to type manually what you want to do each time). My app is based on the premise that most people do the same activities/routines every day: So when creating an event in this app, the user can just select the from the pre-created activities/routines instead of having to type it in manually. After you download the app you get 1 day completely free testing, after that you can use the code LAUNCH for another…

    This is my first web app, so there are bound be to be a few kinks that need to be worked out. That's why it's here, in hopes that some of the awesome people I read about on HN can take a minute to offer some criticism. http://dailydo.it/ DailyDo.it is meant to replace the canonical to-do list with a do-it list – a list of things that you will actually do. My monetization plan is based on team do-it lists, where you can see your teammates' do-it lists and assign them tasks, while keeping the individual do-it lists totally free. Please let me know if you find any bugs, what the pain points…
