QTR is a calm 13-week system built on working backwards, the method behind Amazon’s highest-performing teams.

I’ve tried Trello, ClickUp, and Notion. None of them solved managing the long term and the short term. Until QTR. It’s what Cal Newport calls multi-scale planning, and QTR nails it. Just nails it. Watch the video →

Why QTR works
When other tools fail you.
The reason is deceptively simple. Rather than working on a laundry list of tasks, you’re executing on a focused few tied to the big picture. That’s because you start at the end and work backwards.
Ansel helps you plan your quarterly goals.
Work together with Ansel, your AI assistant, to break big goals down into a visual map of checkpoints and tasks.
Goals to weekly plans to daily tasks is a cakewalk.
Our Time-Framing view makes it easy to move from quarterly tasks, to weekly plans, to daily tasks, to time blocks on your calendar. No exact dates needed. Park a task in a loose timeframe, like three weeks out, and narrow it down when the time comes.
Your current focus, always at a glance.
Your quarter, week, and today all in one view, showing only the goals you’re focused on now. Drag tasks, push them to future days, and time-block, all right from here.

Meet Ansel.
Your 24/7 assistant.
Ansel knows your whole plan, so he helps you with breaking down goals, scheduling your week, and starting your day with a morning brief.
He tells you how your quarter is progressing, where your time is really going, and nudges you when you go off track.
And he’s your assistant for everything in between: adding to your inbox, saving bookmarks, spinning up goals, and managing task lists.
All your tools, integrated.
Connect QTR to the apps and AIs you already use.
Use QTR in Claude or ChatGPT.
Add the QTR plug-in to Claude or ChatGPT and do all your planning without leaving the chat. Add tasks, reshuffle your week, brainstorm goals, and it all syncs back to QTR.
Unify your calendars and tasks.
Consolidate everything scattered across your other apps. QTR becomes the single home for all your work, so you don't have to juggle five different tools.

And people love it.
QTR is the first productivity tool that actually starts with my goals instead of my tasks. The cascade from quarter to day makes it obvious what I should be working on — and what I should stop doing.
Sarah Chen
Founder, Stealth Startup
I'm at least 2× more productive the weeks I use QTR than when I don't.
Karthik Narayanaswamy
Vice President, Atkins Réalis
What QTR does that no other tool does: it combines long-term planning with daily planning. I can plan my week with time-blocking and also see the next 13 weeks at once. The flexibility is unreal.
Priya Natarajan
Product Lead
The concept of thinking in quarters — I have no idea why I've never thought about it this way before. Everything you do today is connected to something bigger.
David Blackwealth
Founder, Third Space Atlas
As a student juggling multiple goals and deadlines, QTR came through. The UI is super-welcoming and provides a seamless experience. It's helped me get less anxious about beating deadlines — it's become my go-to for essays, applications, and conference submissions.
Sneha Ramanathan
MA Candidate, King's College London
QTR looks promising on multiple use cases — from managing teams to drilling on personal goals. I've used Asana and it never felt like something you'd use outside work. QTR's UI is different. It feels personal.
Riyaz Mohammed
Engineering Lead
Dual focus capability, minimalist design, fast and responsive — and the drag-and-drop on the calendar is gold. QTR makes it easy to manage both high-level and low-level tasks simultaneously in a distraction-free environment.
Sreejin Sreenivasan
Product Manager
I highly recommend QTR to anyone looking to gain clarity and focus. I can set actionable goals and track my progress toward them with ease — it's become an invaluable tool.
Rishi Sargar
Startup Founder & CTO
QTR makes goal planning easy and gives me visibility into how I'm progressing on tasks daily and weekly. The timeframe concept is genius.
Jag Shetty
Solution Architect
Just signed up and the UI looks awesome. I've tried many todo apps — this is the one that caught my attention. The way it connects goals to daily tasks is unlike anything else I've used.
