How Leanly works: • Plan your week as a single sprint • Choose up to 5 commitments per week • Focus on up to 3 tasks per day • Stay within limits to drive real progress Leanly combines task management with structured time control. No feature overload. No productivity hype. Just clear boundaries. Perfect for professionals, founders, and knowledge workers who feel overwhelmed by flexible planning tools. If you’re looking for a minimal productivity app, a focused weekly planner, or a smarter time management system, Leanly helps you do less and finish better
