"Before QTR, my workdays felt like I was constantly putting out fires. I’d start the week with good intentions, but by Friday, the important stuff was still untouched. Now I’ve got a clear map for the quarter, and every day I’m ticking off things that actually matter. It’s made a huge difference in how I run my business."

Sarah Chen, Founder & CEO

"I’m a creative, so structure was never my strong suit. But QTR doesn’t feel rigid—it’s more like having a guide that keeps me on track without killing my flow. The time-blocking feature is gold. I can see exactly how my day plays out, and I actually finish what I start now."

Marcus Rodriguez, Content Creator & Digital Entrepreneur

"The weekly sprint planning was a surprise win for me. I used to jump between projects and lose track of what was urgent. With QTR, I’ve always got my priorities in front of me, and that focus has made my team faster and more reliable. It’s like the noise is gone and we can finally get things done."

Priya Natarajan, Product Lead

"What QTR gave me was control. My days aren’t a blur of busywork anymore—I know exactly what matters most, and I get it done without the constant second-guessing. It’s not just more productive, it’s less stressful."

Daniel Kim, Software Engineer

Manage time, not tasks

Transform from scattered priorities to strategic focus with the same system used by high-performing teams.

QTR mobile app interface

Backward planning changes everything.

When you’re juggling multiple responsibilities, every day can feel like a flood of competing tasks— with no clear way to prioritize. No wonder the average person gets just 3 hours of real work done each day.

QTR shifts your focus from managing tasks to managing time.

It’s built on the same backward planning system trusted by top teams at Amazon: start with what you want to achieve this quarter, break it down on a 13-week sprint board, then narrow your focus week by week, day by day.

We call this time-framing—cascading views that represent different timeframes, and paired with time-blocking, so your tasks live right on your calendar.

The QTR Difference

Backward planning, a game-changer

The proven method used by Amazon's high performing teams. QTR brings that same powerful system to your fingertips.

The big picture is always visible

When you can see your whole quarter at a glance, you stop making decisions in the dark. You can shift things around without losing sight of your goals—and say no to distractions with confidence.

Broad timeframes = less mental fatigue

Instead of pinning tasks to exact dates (which often change anyway), QTR lets you bucket them into broader timeframes—weeks and quarters—making it easier to plan and stay flexible.

Daily tasks are linked to big goals

With backward planning, your daily focus is directly connected to your weekly and quarterly goals. Everything you work on has a purpose—and nothing falls through the cracks.

Cascading views keep your plans connected

Quarterly goals flow into weeks, and weeks into days—so you're always working from the big picture. Drill into any day, week, or quarter and see exactly what’s there. Add a task at any level, and it appears everywhere it should. No copy-pasting, no juggling—just one connected plan.

Timeblocking helps you get sh*t done

To-do lists are hopes. Time blocks are commitments. QTR helps you carve out focused time for the work that matters—so it actually gets done, and you stop overpromising your time.

Used by Amazon. Now built for you.

High-performing teams at companies like Amazon use backward planning to deliver results. QTR brings that same powerful system to your fingertips—in a way that's simple, intuitive, and designed for real life.

Have been playing around with the boards, I love them so far! My only gripe is that the scroller at the bottom is a little hard to hit in fullscreen when your taskbar on windows is hidden

qtr looks promising on multiple use cases, from managing teams to drilling on personal goals or prioritizing multiple goals over a quarter. I have used tools like asana and it never came across as something that you would think of using outside work. Qtr UI is awesome and it’s certainly different.

Just signed up for Qtr. UI looks awesome.. I have tried many todo apps for personal use & professional use. This is the one which caught my attention. Going to try it out for next few weeks and see how it goes.

Things that I love so far: This Quarter view with This Quarter's Goals. The concept of thinking in Qtr's; I have no idea why I've never thought about it; but it's a great concept. The textual reminders about goals are also great.

As a student, I found myself getting muddled up with multiple goals/stepping stones to build the academic career of my dreams and then, almost magically, qtr came through. The user-interface is super-welcoming and provides a seamless experience. It helps me get less anxious about beating the deadlines and has become my go-to for managing essays, applications and conference paper submissions. In all, this is one task management application which has a special position in my academic journey and I can doubtlessly proclaim that it will forever remain so.

Life is really busy these days with so many things going on. Qtr is so well designed and helps me stay on top of everything like no other tool does. I've always been a pen-and-paper guy when it comes to planning. Qtr feels so natural and intuitive, it almost feels like it bridges the gap between analog and digital!

I've had the opportunity to try out an early version of Qtr. Though it feels similar to other apps like Asana, It's so different under the hood. Qtr makes goal planning easy and also gives me visibility into how I'm progressing on my tasks on a daily + weekly basis, and so helps me make steady progress toward my milestones. The timeframe concept is genius! Great job, team qtr...looking forward to seeing how this evolves.

Questions

FAQ

Here’s what you might be wondering

There are plenty of to-do apps. What makes QTR different?

QTR isn't just a to-do app—it's a comprehensive goal achievement platform that consolidates your entire productivity stack: goals, tasks, notes, bookmarks, journal, calendar, and projects. With QTR, you're not just managing tasks...you're managing time, controlling the big picture, and navigating purposefully toward your goals.

I use physical planners and journals. Will QTR still be useful to me?

Absolutely. QTR is inspired by the best parts of analog planning—clear structure, visual clarity, and intentionality. While we know pen and paper have their charm, they can fall short for today’s fast-moving, digital workflows. QTR is designed to complement your physical tools—not replace them—by bringing digital efficiency to your planning while preserving the mindfulness of your analog habits.

Does QTR have AI features?

Our current version establishes a solid foundation, while our upcoming release will introduce game-changing AI capabilities. Expect features like intelligent auto-scheduling, intuitive voice and image recognition, and a system that learns your patterns to become your personal productivity assistant.

Does QTR integrate with other apps?

Yes! QTR currently syncs with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook, with integrations for Asana, Slack, and Jira actively in development. Our philosophy is bringing everything together in one unified workspace.

Is there a team version of QTR?

We’re building it from the ground up—with a fresh approach we believe will redefine how teams collaborate on shared goals. We're confident it will transform any group into a high-performing, goal-oriented team.

Is there a mobile app?

Yes. QTR is optimized for desktop to support its visual planning capabilities, but we also offer a companion iOS app (with Android coming soon). The mobile app is perfect for quick task capture and schedule checking on the go, and we're continuously expanding its features to bring more of the full QTR experience to your phone.

Can I try QTR before subscribing?

Absolutely! We offer a comprehensive 7-day free trial that gives you full access to QTR's capabilities. It's the perfect opportunity to discover how QTR fits into and enhances your productivity routine.

Why is it called QTR?

QTR stands for Quarter—rooted in our philosophy of quarterly planning. It gives you a bird’s-eye view of your entire quarter with a visual 13-week canvas to spread out your tasks. But that’s just the start. QTR also lets you zoom out for full-year planning, so you can master both the details and the big picture with ease.
