We’ve got the only calendar template — weekly. And, we’d say it’s the best format to organize your life and work. Tweek is a a lightweight planner to maintain your focus and boost productivity week over week.
Karl, mate I'm just like you. This is a great development you've come up with. I'll be using it for sure. It's the best of the old pen and paper lists combined with new technology efficiency. Quick question. What does the Upgrade offer?
@stuart_mitchell Thanks mate! At this time Upgrade lets you sync your Google Calendar and choose from an additional color palette to mark your tasks. We're working on Reminders and Recurring tasks, what will be also a premium feature for monthly 'cup of coffee' fee :)
Hello Producthunt!👋🏼
We're working on a tool what can boost personal productivity to another level 😤 It’s an online todo list! But not quite ordinary. In past years I used a paper week agenda notebook to plan my week. It worked well but I always wanted to move it online, cause it somehow always got forgotten at my home office. I tried popular calendars, trello-like boards, even google spreadsheets — that did cover my planning needs, but wasn’t quite convenient. So together with our team we created our own. 👨🏻💻
It's complete free to use, with some premium features like Google Calendar sync, additional color palette and some other features we are working on right now.
I’m asking for feedback, would this week planning tasks list be interesting to try?
I've challenged myself to do a write up of at least a single product a day on Product Hunt for the month of September! I did a quick write up of going through Tweek.
Tweek is a lightweight weekly planner application built with simplicity in mind. Tweek seems to embrace simplicity and really bring you back to a time of pen, paper, and a weekly calendar. Built by @kplaude.
I’ve used my fair share of to-do apps. Things, Asana, Todoist, Notion, you name
it, I’ve tried it. I always come back to the most simplistic version of these for my personal to-do’s. Anything too feature dense, and I get lost in the application instead of trying to get things done.
It really feels like Tweek has taken this to the next level. You have a weekly
view where you can add tasks. You can then drag and drop to reorder and move
them to different days or throw them into your Someday list. That’s pretty much it.
This isn’t a bad thing by any means; it really gives you space to simply do the
task instead of getting wrapped up in the process.

I have been looking for something like this! thank you very much :)
I would just need a 'word wrap' function as some of my tasks are too long, and does not fit within the line.
Maybe consider creating a zoomed in version (by hours) for planning the day!
I do like this, just need to watch the price as there are others out there very similar for cheaper and with more features. At present $4 a month for Google and a highlighter seems high.
I do like it but one to watch not pay for yet. Maybe give a free month or two to get users hooked.
@karlper68792405 I appreciate your point here, maybe we should have a trial for users to look around. Honestly, we launched a payment subscription just yesterday, and today we had several payments. We'll see how it goes and make our mind a bit later.
@tiarnan_okelly Thank you. I myself used google spreadsheets for that, but it wasn't so convenient. Especially then you go mobile. It's built on React with couple of magic stuff ✨Hosted and secured by google servers.
@alexg473 yep, that's right. We really wanted to make it look minimal and not disturbing from your productive workflow. And if you want. you can print it and use for offline use :) Cmd + P or Ctrl+P
@karlplaude1 love the simplicity of it... Be strong and avoid adding too many features... But it would be great to have tags at least, don't you think 😁
@nkko tags?! oh no 😱... joking here :) we really want to keep it simple and minimal and at this time not planning to add tags or custom task statuses. P.S. we will listen to our users and try to provide the best experience of using Tweek.🦸♂️
@nkko@karlplaude1 I also thought about tags of some sort, but I really love the keep-it-simple approach and the design really got it (so I don't know if there is a true need of tags). Looks loosely based on Ivy Lee's method? IMHO the big challenge will be how to add features without messing up the core of the product. I wonder if there will be any kind of collaboration or at least visibility options that work for teams?
@swissmiss Hi Tina,
I know your product and tried to settle it in my workflow a long time ago, but returned back to plain paper. I think we have major differences in product philosophy — our main inspiration was classic paper planner. And we tried to reproduce this in our design, adding the print option so people can use it online and offline. You can check Moleskine and other planners, they all seem to be cognate.
@prakis thanks, we are true fans of the "try without signup" model and convinced that it is the most suitable for the potential user. It's quite tricky for SEO, but user happiness pays off. The first project we made by this model was Octopus.do
I'm glad to see your project works the same, if you don't mind I suggest you make a more tactile interface and think of adding an alert then user leaves without saving.
Maybe we should create some kind a directory of websites 'try before sign up' model? :)
@karlplaude1 regarding your suggestion: I am not clear what you mean by tactile interface. I will think about showing a save dialog when they are leaving. Thank you.
@karlper68792405 Tweek is more paper-like canvas. Every week is a sheet and you can switch to next or previous canvas.... And I think we're more simplier :)
@juan_carlos_jaramillo Agree. @karlplaude1 You don't even need to translate all. Config and help could remain in english, but let translate days, and the very words of the frontpage. That way, in a team, someone plays all, but their teams mates only focus in the to-do features. Another feature... some trigger when task is marked as done something that could be used by Zapier or others or something as simpler sending an email to certain inbox when task is done.
Not bad, very much like Teux Duex which I liked but haven't used due to crazy price structure and how out of date it is (doesn't work on iPad etc)
However, two things stop me from being able to use this.
1) Why are Saturday and Sunday so small, those are the two days I have the most stuff to manage, weekdays I am at my day job which is managed elsewhere, so the weekend is where I want to put more stuff on. Would like the option to have this as a full day.
2) Would want the option to have additional lists underneath and not just one 'someday' so I can have a list for each project or such. Else i only have scheduled tasks and one catch all. Will keep an eye on this project though, seems the first promising app in some time that might get me away from Trello, which I am not fully happy with.
@smarky you could use my convention, where I place the name of a project first on a task followed by the todo, like 'project x | draft report' or 'jones research | schedule follow up'. Or it could be a tag, which I bet they will be implementing at some point'.
@karlplaude1 I signed up for the premium subscription to test the Google Calendar sync. So far only events from Google are syncing to Tweek, but Tweek tasks are not syncing to Google. Is that how it's supposed to work? I was hoping for both.
I used to have a very similar paper set-up, which was quite the productive system despite the obvious limitations. I can see myself happily using Tweek for a long time, but a couple of things would take it to the next level. Namely:
- repeating tasks
- bigger Saturday & Sunday
- tags*
* Some sort of tagging system could be used to manage projects and hide or show relevant tasks at will. Say I want to focus on “Project A,” or on “Work” or “Personal” tasks. I'd set a filter and hide everything else for a while. Not having tags isn't a deal breaker for me (it's not like paper planners can do that anyway and they work well despite that), but it would a useful option for a lot of people.
4$/mo for Google calendar integration seems a bit overpriced to me (and I assume people living in lower income countries would agree). If there was more on the pro plan, maybe, but I wouldn't personally pay that much for just the Google calendar integration.
PS: The logo is adorable! How did you come up with it and why use a bird to represent a planner? Just curious.
