What I Built
I built Daywell, a personal planner for my friend who has trouble keeping a track of their daily activities and ends up over scheduling. It combines tasks, reminders, a daily schedule, and productivity insights to help make busy days more manageable.
Daywell calculates planned and available time, flags overloaded schedules, and suggests tasks to move. Over time, it tracks what gets completed or postponed, so its monthly analytics can reveal patterns—like which days or hours tend to be most productive.
Demo
There isn’t a hosted demo yet. You can run the app locally by following the instructions in the README.

How I Built It
Daywell is a responsive React, TypeScript, and Vite web app. Tasks and productivity history are stored in the browser. Scheduling and analytics are calculated by deterministic application code—not by an LLM.
For AI insights, I built a provider boundary around Google’s open-weight Gemma, served locally with Ollama. When someone requests insights, Daywell sends aggregated statistics and supporting evidence to their local inference server; it does not send raw task names or notes. This keeps the AI optional and leaves room for other local inference setups in the future.
I also used GitHub Copilot during development to help build the app incrementally and refine its features.
Why Does Open Innovation Matter?
Productivity data is personal. Using an open-weight model with local inference makes it possible to get AI-generated observations without making a proprietary cloud AI API the core of the app. The app can keep task history in the browser and share only aggregate data with a local model when the user asks for insights.
Open tools and models also make the AI layer easier to inspect, adapt, and extend as local inference options evolve.
