Getting started
Two ways in, for now. Look around Sam’s week in the preview, with no account, or join the beta list and we’ll email you when the beta starts.
Try the preview first
Try the preview runs the real app in your browser. You set up as a new student, the Manager shows you around, and then the app fills with the week of Sam Reyes, a fictional Year 11 student with school, homework, sport and assessments. No account needed, and nothing you do is saved.
A good tour:
- Read the Now card on Today, then press Start.
- Open Plan and look at the week.
- Switch Tasks to Table, then Board.
- Ask the Manager to move something, then press Undo.
- Open To confirm and History.
Feedback, at the top of every screen, sends us what you liked and what confused you.
Join the beta
Accounts aren’t open while the app is being built. Join the beta list with your email, and we’ll write when the beta starts. What the beta involves.
Set up your week
Setup has twelve steps. You’ll see them in the preview, and again when your own account opens.
| Step | Name | What it asks for |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | AI key | Your provider and key, and a monthly limit. Skip it if you don’t have one. |
| 2 | About you | Your name, what to call you, year level, school, and a name for your Manager |
| 3 | Subjects | Tick the subjects you take |
| 4 | Timetable | Your periods and breaks for each day (days can differ, and Week A and B work), with a chat beside it that can fill it in |
| 5 | Your files | Drop in task sheets, syllabuses and notes, as many as you like |
| 6 | What’s due | Assessments and homework coming up |
| 7 | Outside school | Sport, work, tutoring and anything else that takes your evenings |
| 8 | How much is enough | How much study on a school night, a busy night and a weekend day, and when bed is |
| 9 | How subjects feel | Which subjects feel solid and which don’t, for the subjects you picked |
| 10 | First checks | Short checks built from material you’ve added, or nothing if you haven’t added any |
| 11 | Reminders | Which reminders you’d like |
| 12 | Your first week | The plan for your first week, to look over |
Every school’s bells are different
The timetable step takes any number of periods and breaks, different times on different days, and Week A and B. Type it into the table, or tell the chat beside it and watch the table fill in.
Your first few weeks
A new account doesn’t have much to plan around yet, so the plan starts by learning about you.
Early blocks gather what the Planner needs, like “Add your Chemistry task sheet” or a 10-minute Physics check-in, instead of guessing topics. As you add task sheets, notes and marks, the plan gets more specific.
