Sunsama is a thoughtful daily planner — it pulls tasks from Todoist, Slack, Gmail and your calendar into a calm time-boxing ritual, one focused day at a time. Yuki solves the step before that: instead of planning the day you already know about, it reads your inbox so the plans, expenses and reminders show up on their own. Sunsama helps you work with intention; Yuki reduces what you have to remember in the first place.

Choose Yuki if…
- You want your calendar, trips, expenses and to-dos built for you from your inbox — not entered by hand each morning.

Choose Sunsama if…
- You want a calm, deliberate daily ritual that has you time-box and plan one focused day at a time.
- Your tasks already live in tools like Todoist, Asana, Jira or Slack and you want them pulled into one planning view.
- You work primarily at a desk and want a polished web and desktop (Mac/Windows) app, not a mobile-first tool.
