About Sunsama
Sunsama is a calm, ritual-based planner. Each morning it guides you through choosing what to work on, pulling tasks from tools like Asana, Trello, Jira, Linear, Notion, Todoist, GitHub, Gmail and Slack, estimating how long they'll take, and dragging them onto your Google or Outlook calendar as time blocks. It warns when you've planned more than your working hours allow, and an evening shutdown routine helps you review the day and roll unfinished work forward. Weekly planning and review, focus mode, timeboxing and objectives help keep the bigger picture in view, and there are AI and MCP features for power users. There is deliberately no free plan: after a 14-day trial without a card, there is one Pro plan billed monthly or at a lower yearly rate. It runs on Mac, Windows, Linux, the web and mobile. Fans love the mindful approach, though the price is high for a personal planner and the mobile apps are lighter than the desktop app.
Best for: Knowledge workers who want a guided daily planning and shutdown routine.
