The only family assistant you will ever need. Resteazy runs the parts of family life that keep slipping. Tell it what is happening in plain English and it puts the event on the shared calendar, adds the groceries to the list, assigns the chore, and reminds the right person at the right time. Snap a photo of a school flier, paste an invite link, or forward an event email, and every date and task gets pulled in and filed where it belongs. One shared home base for the calendar, chores, shopping, meals, recipes, bills, and to-dos. Everyone in the house sees the same thing. THE ASSISTANT The bar at the bottom of every screen does the work. Type it or say it: "Soccer practice for Sarah Thursday at 4pm" "Add eggs, milk, and paper towels to the list" "How much do we pay in bills each month?" "What is on this weekend, and will it rain?" "Remember that Sam is allergic to peanuts" "Plan my Saturday around the game" It remembers what you tell it to remember, keeps a log of anything you want tracked, and plans a day around the weather and what is already booked. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Shared family calendar with weather, member colors, and Google Calendar import. • Subscribe to a school or team calendar. Every game, practice, and day off lands automatically. • Severe weather watches and warnings for your area, not just the forecast. • Chore chart with points, difficulty, and per-kid leaderboards. • Shopping list that splits "eggs, milk, bread" automatically and updates in real time. • Meal planner that sends the week's ingredients to your shopping list in one tap. • Recipes hub with cuisine, time, and difficulty. Save from a URL or a photo. • Bills with due dates, so you know what is coming and what is already paid. • To-dos with due dates, reminders, and assignees. • Documents and asset tracking for warranties, manuals, and important files. • Pet profiles with vet records and care reminders. BUILT FOR FAMILIES • Invite your whole household. Everyone sees updates in real time. • Send an invite by text or share sheet. No one has to hunt for an email. • Identity colors so you can spot each person's events at a glance. • Reminders that arrive on time, with quiet hours you set. • Calm design, plain language, and no clutter.

Elysium Productivity

Elysium is a local-first planner and calendar built for people who want control over their time — and their data. After trying countless planning apps, it became clear that most tools force you into rigid systems, lock your data away, or charge ongoing fees just to manage your own life. Elysium was built to be different. Your data lives locally, in human-readable files. Nothing is trapped behind a server or subscription. You can use Elysium completely offline, customize it deeply, and extend it over time — without being boxed into someone else’s workflow. Elysium brings together planning, scheduling, and habit-tracking in a way that adapts to you, not the other way around. Key principles • Local-first by design — your data stays on your device • User-owned files — portable, readable, and future-proof • Flexible scheduling — tasks, events, goals, habits, appointments, reminders and projects in one system • Customizable workflows — shape the app around how you think and style it to match your unique requirements • Extensible foundation — designed to grow with with you and extend beyond the core functionality • Calm, focused interface — by default the screens are simple, but you can make them as complicated and colorful as you like Whether you’re planning your day, managing long-term goals, or building your own productivity system, Elysium gives you the structure you need without taking control away from you. No ads. No surveillance. No forced subscriptions. We only charge for things that actually cost us money, like cloud syncing on the Basic plan and server resources for collaboration and team management on the Pro plan. Just a tool designed to respect you and your time. Terms of Use: https://elysium.is/terms
