Just say it. Add tasks & events by voice with Kaizen AI. Tasks, calendar & Kanban in one app on iOS, Android & Web. Try free - your future self will thank you
End your day feeling done — not buried.
88% of people go to bed feeling unaccomplished. Not because they didn't work hard, but because their tools fight them: a to-do list in one app, a calendar in another, a Kanban board in a third, and an AI chat in a fourth. Nothing talks to anything.
Kaizen brings it all into one app that you actually want to open.
→ TIME-BLOCK YOUR DAY, NOT JUST LIST IT
Drag tasks straight onto your calendar. See your real day — to-dos AND time blocks — side by side on a split screen (iPad/large screens). No more "I have 17 to-dos and 6 hours, what now?" — Kaizen shows you when, not just what.
→ AI THAT ACTUALLY KNOWS YOU
You can use Kaizen's build in AI assistant or work with frontier models through MCP. Set persistent instructions ("Be blunt", "Push me on my side project", "Cut me slack on Fridays") and the AI shapes itself around you instead of you adapting to it. Brain-dump out loud, get a structured plan back.
→ KANBAN WHEN A LIST ISN'T ENOUGH
Every project gets a board view. Drag tasks through Backlog → Doing → Done. Perfect for side projects, course work, and creative work where a flat list doesn't fit.
→ LIFE TIERLIST: SEE WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS
Hidden behind a long-press on the calendar icon: rank the areas of your life — Career, Health, Family, Learning, Side Project, ... — into a visual hierarchy. When you don't know what to work on, your tierlist answers for you. No other planner does this.
→ MAKE IT YOURS — REALLY YOURS
Backgrounds per page. Custom fonts, sizes, icons. Opacity and blur per element. Custom colors. Windowed mode on larger devices. Most planners give you "dark mode and three theme colors." Kaizen gives you a workspace that feels like it was built for your brain.
WHO IT'S FOR
• Employees juggling work, life and a side project
• Founders and freelancers who can't afford a messy day
• Students whose calendar and homework live in different worlds
• Anyone who's tried five planners and bounced off all of them

WHY "KAIZEN"
Kaizen (改善) is the Japanese practice of getting 1% better, every day. Not a productivity hack. A way of building a life that compounds.

I’m always baffled by these new apps that feel justified in charging people before they’re even ready too. You have a ton of work to do with glitches. I normally do not write reviews but the fact that so many feel the need to overcharge or even charge at all is ridiculous.
Wanted to Give it a Shot, But..

As a business owner and someone who always loves to try new organizational methods and different Japanese techniques, I really wanted to give this app a try. The problem is, even before setup, I ran into various bugs and hit one that completely breaks the app. Of course, a subscription is required (which I am not fond of), but I wanted to try my 14-day free trial. Upon trying to move forward with the trial, you immediately get an error code, and it is continuous over and over. It does not let you progress; therefore, you cannot even use the app. I highly recommend trying to fix the bugs in the app before trying to charge people money.
What's new in 8.6.0:
→ Create tasks and now also events by voice with Kaizen AI dictation
→ Reworked haptic feedback: crisp, precise and consistent across the app
→ Smoother calendar: events appear, move and delete instantly
→ Design refinements throughout the app
→ A fresh round of bug fixes and performance tweaks
Thanks for using Kaizen.
