Your brain is not broken. Your calendar is. Tempo is the first AI calendar built specifically for ADHD brains. No more staring at an empty calendar. No more forgotten appointments. No more back-to-back meetings with zero transition time. Just talk. Tempo listens. Tempo is a subscription app. A 7-day free trial is included โ€” all features below require an active subscription after the trial ends. SAY IT, FORGET IT, IT'S DONE Open Tempo, hit the mic, and brain-dump everything on your mind: "Schedule a dentist appointment Thursday at 2, oh and I need to call mom, and there's that report due Friday morning..." Tempo's AI understands your chaos. It parses every task, finds the right time slots, and places them on your calendar โ€” with smart buffers between each one. SMART BUFFERS THAT ACTUALLY GET YOU Not every task needs the same transition time. Tempo knows that: โ€ข A quick call to mom โ†’ 5 min buffer โ€ข A deep focus coding session โ†’ 15 min prep buffer โ€ข A job interview โ†’ 30 min prep, 15 min cooldown The AI decides. You just show up. ENERGY CHECK-IN Some days you wake up and can barely function. Tempo gets it. Slide your energy level, pick which events can move, and Tempo reshuffles your entire day โ€” spreading things out on low days, front-loading on high-energy days. No other calendar app does this. VOICE COMMANDS FOR EVERYTHING Already scheduled something? Just say: โ€ข "Cancel my dentist appointment" โ†’ Gone. โ€ข "Move standup to 3 PM" โ†’ Moved. No tapping through menus. No editing fields. Just talk. CONFLICT DETECTION Tempo catches double-bookings before they happen. When there's a conflict, tap "Find Another Time" and the AI suggests the nearest free slot. BUILT FOR YOUR ADHD BRAIN โ€ข Time blindness? Smart buffers guarantee transition time. โ€ข Executive dysfunction? Voice input means zero friction. โ€ข Decision paralysis? AI makes the scheduling decisions. โ€ข Bad days? Energy Check-In adapts your whole schedule. โ€ข Forget to plan? Morning nudge reminds you in 10 seconds. YOUR DATA STAYS PRIVATE Tempo writes directly to your Apple Calendar. Your events never leave your device. The AI only sees your schedule temporarily to find free slots โ€” nothing is stored on our servers.

Beat time blindness and task paralysis with AuraPlan, the visual daily planner built for ADHD, autistic, and neurodivergent minds. Say your goal out loud, watch a giant countdown ring tick down, and finally see your day. WHY AURAPLAN IS DIFFERENT Most planners hand you a blank grid and blame you when it stays empty. AuraPlan starts with your energy and your words. A friendly AI copilot turns "clean the kitchen" or "study for finals" into small, timed steps with icons and pastel colors. A ring-shaped visual timer shrinks in real time, so five minutes actually feels like five minutes. BUILT FOR NEURODIVERGENT BRAINS - Visual countdown ring, not a shrinking bar of guilt - Pastel palette designed to prevent sensory overload - Every tap answers with gentle haptic feedback - VoiceOver, Dynamic Type and high-contrast Dark Mode - No streaks, no shaming, no red numbers everywhere WHAT YOU CAN DO 1. AI COPILOT โ€” Type or speak a fuzzy intent. Aura returns a step-by-step routine you can drop into today with one tap. 2. VISUAL TIMELINE โ€” See the whole day as color blocks. Long-press and drag to reshape it in seconds. 3. FOCUS TIMER โ€” A ring so big you can read it from across the room. Overrun turns soft red instead of stopping you dead. 4. ROUTINES LIBRARY โ€” Save "Morning Launch", "Deep Work" or "Wind Down" once, apply forever. 5. ENERGY-AWARE PLANNING โ€” Tap Low Energy and AuraPlan quietly moves your hardest tasks to tomorrow. 6. INSIGHTS โ€” Weekly focus time, completion rate and energy patterns, without judgment. WHO IT HELPS - Adults and teens with ADHD or executive dysfunction - Autistic users who thrive on predictable routines - Students juggling classes, jobs and side quests - Remote workers, writers and creators fighting context-switching - Anyone who has ever stared at a to-do list and justโ€ฆ frozen PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your day is your business. AuraPlan works fully offline in Anonymous Mode โ€” no account required to try the core loop. Sync uses strong TLS, and only anonymized event names leave your device. GDPR and CCPA supported, with one-tap export and deletion. FREE VS PRO Free forever: visual timeline, up to three routines, core focus timer. AuraPlan Pro unlocks unlimited AI planning, unlimited routines, weekly insight reports, custom themes and icons, and future Apple Watch complications and calendar two-way sync. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple ID settings. Ready to make time visible?
