Planfect is your AI day planner. Tell it what's on your plate — by text or voice — and it builds a realistic schedule around your routine, commute, and habits. No forms. No dragging blocks around a grid. Just say "dentist Friday afternoon, groceries this weekend, finish the report this week" and Planfect works out the when: it fits things around your work and sleep, adds real travel time so you leave on time, and asks only when it's truly unsure. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Plan by voice or text — fire off a quick thought, get a full day back • Smart scheduling around your routine, sleep, and your real calendar • Real travel times, so a 2:00 appointment means leaving at the right minute • Recurring habits, gentle reminders, and Apple Calendar sync • A clean day / week / month timetable, plus insights into where your time goes • Home- and lock-screen widgets for what's next, at a glance Planfect learns how you like your days — workouts in the morning, focused work when you're sharp — and plans around it.
