QTR: Achieve Your Goals in 13-Week Sprints

What if you could accomplish more in just 13 weeks than most people do in a year? QTR is designed to help you do just that. This productivity planner combines powerful planning techniques with AI assistance to help you set big goals, plan backward to create weekly sprints, and time-block your daily tasks for maximum impact.

What is QTR?

QTR is a to-do app and productivity system built around the concept of backward planning. Backward planning is a system where you start with your desired outcome, or end goals, and then work backward to determine the steps needed to reach that goal. QTR is designed around 13 week sprints, and offers a comprehensive system designed to help you achieve quarterly goals.

How does QTR work?

QTR uses a backward planning system involving the following steps:

1. Set Quarterly Goals: Define your major objectives for the next 13 weeks.
2. Map Weekly Plans: Break down your quarterly goals into actionable weekly themes and tasks.
3. Time-Block Daily Activities: Schedule your prioritized tasks directly onto your calendar to manage your time effectively.

Key Features of QTR

• Backward Planning: Start with your quarterly vision and work backward to your daily tasks.
• Time-Blocking: Drag prioritized tasks onto your calendar to allocate time effectively.
• AI Writing Coach: Coming soon, an AI assistant will help polish paragraphs, generate variations, and brainstorm ideas.
• Magic Bookmarks: Save websites and let AI automatically tag and categorize them for easy access.

Manage Time, Not Tasks

QTR focuses on managing your time effectively, rather than just managing tasks. The system involves cascading views that represent different timeframes, paired with time-blocking so that your tasks live right on your calendar.

Instead of tasks being pinned to specific dates (which often change), QTR allows you to 'bucket' tasks into broader timeframes - weeks and quarters - making it easier to plan, and stay flexible.
