Compass Calendar

A daily planner for minimalists. Organize your day and lock-in.

week-view-2026-06

Why Try Compass?

It'll help you get things done:

  • Plan faster: Organize your Month → Week → Day in minutes.
  • Keyboard-first: Shortcuts and command palette for lightning-fast planning.
  • No bloat: A clean UI that does a few things well.

It'll be around for the long-term:

  • Bootstrapped: VC-backed teams think in terms of months and funding rounds. We think in terms of decades and profit. We don't need to make $1B in 5 years or impress investors. As long as we keep users like you happy, we'll be fine.
  • Vision: We have an ambitious vision and a practical roadmap that'll keep us busy for a long time.

Features

  • Now Mode: Lock-in on a single task
  • Custom Note: Display a note-to-self for motivation or reminders
  • Someday/Maybe List: Organize future tasks without cluttering your schedule
  • One-Click Adjustments: Move events forwards or back effortlessly
