One life. One app. Keep your life’s plan in a single place — a free and open-source app you fully control.

A life management tool that started as a weekly planner. It's meant to be as practical as possible so you can get more work done without wasting time trying to make sense of spread-out data to organize your life. Keep track of what's important to you: diary notes, ideas, recipes, people, habits, goals, or extend it with plugins if you want.

No — it is modular, and it stays out of your way. Every section can be hidden, reordered and given its own colour, so you can run it as a weekly planner and a todo list and never see the rest. Most people start with the week and grow into the diary, the habits and the kitchen when a reason turns up.

They each do one part of it well and none of them do the rest, so you end up running four and joining them up yourself. Ontoplano is the whole of it in one place — the week, the todos, the notes, the diary, the habits, the people, the meals and the shopping that follows from them — and because it is one app, the parts know about each other. The other half is that we respect your privacy, and it is built so that you do not have to take our word for it: the app is open source, it runs on your own machine if you want, your data is one file you can take away at any moment, and nothing about you is sold, tracked, profiled or handed to anybody. There are no third-party trackers and no advertising business behind this. Notion is a database you rent; this is a life you own.

Yes — AGPLv3, the whole app, no features held back for a paid tier. Run it on your own machine and it costs nothing, for good. What costs money is the official instance, which is the part nobody enjoys: a server kept up, backed up and patched.

No. There is no app to buy and nothing to unlock. Either you sign in to the official instance, or you run the same software yourself; the Android app is the same app and is free either way. Three questions and the steps for your phone.

Only if you want to. There is an instance at app.ontoplano.com for people who would rather not keep a server alive, check the plans below. You can move either way afterwards: if your plan ends, you are free to export all your data in one click.

You do not. The phone can run the whole thing on its own, offline, with every feature — except the ones that are a server by definition: letting an AI assistant read and write your week over MCP, opening the API to anything else you want plugged in, reminders that arrive when the app is shut, and having the same account on more than one device. If none of that is what you are after, no server is needed at any point.

Yes, from Todoist, Google Tasks, Google Keep, Org mode and Obsidian. Export from any of them and drop the file in — or, for a vault, choose its folder — and it works out what it is by itself, lands everything in one notebook, and is all-or-nothing, so an import that fails halfway leaves nothing behind. Deleting that notebook undoes it.

Yes. An AI assistant can read it and write to it — ask it what you are meant to be doing today, or to put the trip in a notebook — and you decide what it is allowed to touch. Anything else you might want plugged in has a way in too: your day pushed to your phone every morning, a shopping list shared between two households, the numbers your bathroom scale exports turned into a chart. How that works, with examples.

Yes — there is an Android app. It can sign in to any instance — yours, or the official one — so the same week is on the phone and on your computer; or it can be the instance itself, keeping everything on the phone and talking to nothing. The steps for your phone.

Yes, two ways. Against an instance it opens with no network — the app is on the phone, and ticking things off the shopping list works with no signal at all: the ticks are kept and sent the moment there is one again. Or the phone can hold the whole thing: an on-device instance that never connects to anything, with your data on the phone and nowhere else.

Yes. Every account has a private calendar feed you can subscribe to from Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Thunderbird or anything else that speaks iCal, so your week shows up wherever you already look.

You keep it. It is one SQLite file, exportable as JSON in a click, and the code is open under a free license — forever.

Yes, and on your terms. Every instance serves an MCP endpoint, so Claude, Codex or anything else that speaks it can read your day, search what you have written, add todos, write entries and work the shopping list — with a token you create and can revoke, holding only the permissions you ticked. Nothing is sent to a model unless you point one at it, and a self-hosted instance never leaves your machine at all.

Yes. Paste a screenshot into an entry, drop a photo in, or press the button — it goes into your data where you can move it and delete it like any other line. Recipes get a gallery of their own, and the one you star is the one the cookbook shows. They live in the same file as everything else, so they leave with your export.

No analytics inside the app, no third-party scripts on your pages, and nothing sold to anybody. The official instance sees what it has to see to serve you the page.
