Enter the day you start and the day it is due. You get the seven steps of the project, from Planning to Maintenance, with their dates, worked out backwards from the deadline.

A suggested split to start from, not a rule. Nothing you enter is sent or saved. Want the tasks too? Vyam drafts them from your idea.

Questions people ask

How do I plan a project backwards from its deadline?
Take the day it is due, keep the last week free for fixing and the final run-through, and share the working days before that between the steps of the project. This planner does that sum for you.
Why keep the last week free?
Things go wrong at the end: a bug, a report that needs a second pass, a teammate who is ill. A free week is the slack that lets the plan survive them.
Are the proportions a rule?
No. They are a usual split to start from: about a third of the time on building and less on planning. Change the plan to fit your project.
Is my data stored?
No. The dates are worked out in your browser and are not sent anywhere or saved.
