Hey there! ๐Ÿ‘‹ We've been working on Routine for the past 5 months. Our goal is to provide busy people with a fast keyboard shortcut to perform your most common tasks such as capturing a thought, glancing at their calendar to know when your next meeting is or even taking meeting notes, all of those without switching context and losing focus. In particular, we find it super annoying to be forced to switch between todo and notes taking apps. We believe some information is actionable (tasks) while others are not (notes). We see no reason why they should not be stored in the same system. This is why we decided to include notes (daily notes, meeting notes, topic-based pages etc,) and tightly-bound them to tasks. In Routine, tasks can be enhanced with a media-rich description (i.e a note) but notes can also embed checkboxes which are full-fledged tasks that can be scheduled, delegated and more. Another problem with existing tools is that they do not take into account your work preferences. Maybe you prefer to concentrate in the morning and take meetings in the afternoon. Or maybe the opposite. Routine allows you to define such time preferences when it comes to deep work, internal and external meetings, administrative work etc. Routine will then take those into account whenever you want to schedule a meeting or block time in your calendar in order to work on an important task. Think of it as Calendly for all the activities in your life (not just meetings). We believe productivity apps have become too slow and we want to bring back speed into your life. We have put a waiting list in place to make sure we can control the product quality. But if you really really want to test it right now, let me know ๐Ÿ˜‡ In any case, let us know what you think, we definitely need your feedback to take Routine in the right direction.

@jmq Iโ€™ve tried about everything on the market over the past 10 years, from the Sunsama of the world, to all the Pomodoro and todo apps. This is the first time that I stick to one after using Routine for the past 2 months. And I love the integration with Google Calendar and Google Todo. Search no further. This is it!

As CEO of a growing startup, Routine is my lifesaver tool to better manage my time. The team is reactive on Discord to respond to any question and improve the product based on my user feedback. Thank you again for what you are doing guys ๐Ÿ‘

Looks great! How does the pricing work?

Iโ€™ve used routine for a couple of weeks and itโ€™s been great so far. Having on app to join meetings take notes and create todo tasks is super smart
Charlene Mulley
@frcbls Join meetings? I got to try this.

Great job so far. ๐Ÿ‘ The last features added and the brand new design allow me to focus on what matters most: productivity. I can't wait to see the new features to come, @jmq I have the same feeling I got when I discovered Notion a few years ago: I see the deep potential of the product and the team velocity. ๐Ÿš€
Arnaud Weiss
As an early adopter, I can say that I've been dazzled by Routine's execution. They ship the features we ask at light speed! As a result, the app is getting more and more ingrained in my daily routine. Kudos ๐Ÿ™Œ
Jacob Claerhout
Congratulations on the launch! Really excited to make Routine a routine. ๐Ÿ’ช

I've been looking for the perfect productivity mix for so long [calendar + tasks + notes] and as a diligent user for a while now, I'm happy to declare: here it is :) Well done @jmq & team - keep on pushin'
Matheus Baumgart
Congrats on the launch! It sounds and looks awesome. I can't help but be a bit jealous, I've been solo-making something extremely similar (https://digitalplanner.app/) for the last year and a half. Keen to have a chat :)

I am using Routine everyday since a month now. Very easy to use for meeting notes and put aside tasks to be done. Well done @jmq and the team.

Love Routine - and not only for its good looks!

Requested access like 2 weeks ago - sniff, nothing so far.

I am foaming at the mouth to get my hands on this app. I love the aesthetic, mission, and the growth that I've seen on Twitter so far! I think this will be a great app for ADHD brains especially with its directness and efficient design. I've been on the waiting list for 5 weeks now though, and hopefully @jmq or ?makers can let me know when I'll be able to start using the beta!
