In simple English

Open Sunsama is a daily planner and task manager that you can run on your own server. You can plan your day on a kanban board, drag tasks onto a calendar, and use a timer to stay focused. It also connects directly to AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT. Your assistant can read your schedule and move tasks around for you. It is free for personal use, but commercial use requires a paid licence.

What it is

An open-source daily planner with a time-blocking calendar, a focus mode, and a built-in server for AI agents. It provides a web interface and desktop and mobile applications.

What it is good for

Solo builders and remote workers who want to plan their days with time blocks while letting AI assistants manage their task lists.
