The basics
What is SelfManager.ai?
SelfManager.ai is a date-centric AI task manager where each day has its own workspace with unlimited tables for tasks, notes, images, and comments. Built-in AI planning and reviewing with rich context from its date-based structure.
How is SelfManager.ai different from Notion, Trello, Todoist, or Asana?
Most task managers organize work by board, list, or folder. SelfManager.ai organizes by date - every day is its own workspace, and AI runs on top of your real history to plan the week ahead and summarize the weeks behind.
There are no per-seat fees: the Team plan is a flat $30/month for unlimited collaborators.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. SelfManager.ai includes a 7-day free trial with full access to every feature, including AI. During the trial you can use Gemini 3 Flash and 3.8 Flash, Claude Haiku 5.5 and GPT-6 Luna; every other model, Gemini 4 Argon included, is on paid plans. No credit card is required to start, and you can cancel anytime.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The 7-day trial starts when you sign in with one of the supported login providers, with no payment information collected upfront.
Can I use SelfManager.ai for free forever?
No. After the 7-day trial, an active subscription is required to keep using the app. The Individual plan starts at $6/month billed annually, and the Team plan is a flat $25/month billed annually with unlimited team members.
How do I get started?
Open selfmanager.ai and sign in with Google, Microsoft, Apple, X/Twitter, Facebook, email, or phone. Your account is created in seconds with sample data so you can see the workflow immediately.
Who is SelfManager.ai for?
SelfManager.ai is built for solo founders, freelancers, consultants, knowledge workers, students, and small teams who want one place to plan their week by date, track tasks and notes, and reflect with AI-generated weekly and monthly reviews.
The Individual plan ($8/month, $6 billed annually) covers personal use. The Team plan ($30/month flat, $25 billed annually) covers small teams of any size with unlimited collaborators.
What makes SelfManager.ai unique?
Three things you do not get together anywhere else. First, every day already has its own workspace with unlimited tables for tasks, notes, images, and comments, with no setup or templates. Second, AI Plan drafts a structured plan for any window up to 31 days from a plain-English brief. Third, AI Review reads every task you actually touched in any week, month, or quarter and produces a streamed summary you can chat with.
On top of that, the Team plan is a flat $30/month with unlimited collaborators, with no per-seat fees ever.
How long has SelfManager.ai been around?
Development started in mid-to-late 2016, and the product launched publicly in 2022 as Self-Manager.net. It moved to selfmanager.ai in 2026 and continues with active development and frequent updates, including the v4 redesign released in early 2026. Today, thousands of registered users use it worldwide.
Pricing & billing
How much does SelfManager.ai cost?
SelfManager.ai has two plans. Individual is $8/month or $6/month billed annually. Team is $30/month or $25/month billed annually with unlimited team members included. Both plans include a 7-day free trial.
Is there a discount?
Yes, annual billing saves you money on either plan — up to 25%. Individual goes from $8/month to $6/month ($72/year, a 25% saving), and Team goes from $30/month to $25/month ($300/year, about 17%). You can change billing cycles anytime in your account settings.
Do invited team members pay extra?
No. Only the person who subscribes to the Team plan pays the $30/month flat fee. Invited collaborators get full access to the tables you share with them, including editing tasks, leaving comments, and uploading images and docs, without paying anything.
Are there per-seat fees, storage fees, or hidden costs?
No per-seat fees and no hidden costs. The Individual and Team plans are flat-rate, with no per-user or per-task charges: text, images and audio are unlimited, and docs can use up to 5 GB on Individual and 25 GB on Team. Two add-ons are optional: more AI credits if you go past the weekly allowance, and extra space for docs, from 10 GB for $2 a month up to 1 TB, if you need more than your plan holds.
Can I get more space for docs?
Yes. On the Subscription page, add extra space on top of your plan's 5 GB (Individual) or 25 GB (Team): 10 GB for $2 a month, 20 GB for $4, 50 GB for $8, 100 GB for $14, 200 GB for $24, 500 GB for $50 or 1 TB for $90, and 10% less billed yearly. It's paid up front and renews on its own.
Change its size any time on the same page. A bigger size starts at once: you pay for it from today, with the unused part of your current size taken off that charge. A smaller size starts when the period you've already paid for ends, and you keep the bigger one until then. Remove it whenever you like: it ends at the end of its billing period. Nothing is refunded.
Extra space goes with a paid plan: it can't be added during the free trial, and if your plan ends, the extra space ends at the end of its billing period. Nothing is ever deleted when you go over your total; new docs simply wait until there's room.
What happens after the 7-day free trial?
You'll be asked to choose a plan to continue. No credit card is charged automatically because none was collected at trial start. You can cancel without paying, or pick Individual ($8/month) or Team ($30/month) to keep using all features.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You can cancel your subscription from your account settings at any time, and access continues until the end of the billed period.
Can I switch between Individual and Team plans?
Yes. Plan changes take effect at the next billing cycle, with the new rate prorated based on remaining time on the current plan.
What payment methods do you accept?
Payments are processed securely through Stripe. You can pay with major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), and Apple Pay or Google Pay are available where supported by your device and country.
Use cases & personas
Is SelfManager.ai good for freelancers?
Yes. Freelancers use SelfManager.ai to track multiple clients on separate tables per day, log billable time with the built-in timer, attach client briefs and reference images to each task, and generate weekly summaries with AI Review for invoicing or status updates. Each table can be shared with a specific client without giving them access to the rest of your work.
Is SelfManager.ai good for consultants?
Yes. Consultants use SelfManager.ai to manage multiple engagements at once. Each engagement gets its own table with task tracking, time logging, and per-task notes. AI Review summarizes any week, month, or quarter for client status updates and end-of-retainer reports. Pin your most important engagements so they show up on every day’s homepage view.
Is SelfManager.ai good for knowledge workers?
Yes. Knowledge workers (developers, designers, product managers, analysts, researchers) use SelfManager.ai to plan their week ahead with AI Plan, capture meeting notes and reference material in rich text, track time on focused work, and reflect on what shipped each week with AI Review. The date-centric structure mirrors how knowledge work actually flows: by day, not by board.
Is SelfManager.ai good for solo founders?
Yes. Solo founders use SelfManager.ai as a single workspace for product roadmap, customer notes, marketing tasks, and personal goals. Pin your top-of-mind initiatives so they stay one click away from every day’s view, use AI Review to track progress weekly or monthly, and keep everything searchable across notes and comments.
Is SelfManager.ai good for students?
Yes. Students use SelfManager.ai to plan study sessions by date, track assignments and exam prep, take rich-text class notes per course, and get AI-generated summaries of what they accomplished each week or semester. The Individual plan starts at $6/month billed annually, and the 7-day free trial includes every feature.
Is SelfManager.ai good for small teams?
Yes. Small teams (2 to 20+ people) use SelfManager.ai on the Team plan: a flat $30/month with unlimited team members. Invite collaborators to specific tables only, comment on tasks, share images and docs, and run AI Review across the team’s combined output for weekly stand-ups and monthly retros. Only the team admin pays. Invited members get full access at no extra cost.
Is SelfManager.ai good for daily planning?
Yes. Daily planning is the core of SelfManager.ai. Every day automatically has its own workspace, you can add unlimited tables per day for different focus areas (work, personal, health, learning), and AI Plan can draft a full week or month of structured plans from a plain-English brief. Duplicate any table to reuse it on a different day.
How does SelfManager.ai handle recurring tasks and habits?
Routines and habits repeat as whole tables. Any table can repeat, such as a habit list, a morning routine or a Friday review: when you add or edit a table, set Repeat to every day, weekdays, weekends, days you choose, every few days, or a date each month, and a preview shows the days it will land on over the next two weeks. Each of those days gets its own fresh copy, with the tasks unchecked and the notes included, created the first time you open that day. Repeats only fill in today and the days ahead, never past days, and you can pause, edit or delete any repeat under All › Repeats.
What SelfManager.ai does not have is repeating individual tasks: one task with its own schedule inside a table that does not repeat. To repeat a single task, give it a small table of its own and set that table to repeat. Deadlines and reminders are not copied to repeated days, and images and comments stay on the day they were added. To reuse a table just once, duplicate it to another day, or pin it so it is one click away from every day.
Can I use SelfManager.ai as a journal or daily log?
Yes. The date-centric structure makes SelfManager.ai a natural daily journal. Use the rich text notes on any table for free-form writing, or use comments on private tables for shorter daily entries. Every note and comment is searchable from the search page, so you can find what you wrote weeks or months later. The Self Message feature also lets you write a daily message to yourself for motivation or reflection.
Can I track personal goals alongside work tasks?
Yes. You can mix personal and work tasks in a single table per day, or keep them in two separate tables on the same day. For longer-horizon goals (weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly), create a dedicated goal table once and pin it. Pinned tables stay accessible from every day’s homepage view, so long-term goals remain one click away no matter which day you open.
Features & capabilities
What AI features does SelfManager.ai have?
SelfManager.ai includes 14 AI features built around capturing work, understanding it, planning ahead, and reviewing what happened.
Voice capture: dictate comments, table notes, and AI prompts instead of typing.
Table intelligence: generate tasks from any text, chat with AI about a specific table, summarize a table, and ask follow-up questions about its summary.
Pinned-table intelligence: chat across your important tables, summarize them together, and follow up on the result.
Planning and review: use AI Plan for forward-looking plans up to 31 days, AI Review for weekly, monthly, or quarterly summaries, follow up on period reviews, or generate an instant period summary without chat.
After a comment or table note is transcribed, choose Keep or Delete audio. The transcript stays either way. Kept recordings appear on All Recordings, while audio from AI prompt boxes is never kept: it is uploaded only to be transcribed, and deleted as soon as its words are in the box.
How does voice quick capture work?
Tap the microphone in a comment, table note, or AI prompt, then speak for up to 30 minutes. When you stop, AI transcribes your recording and puts editable text directly into the input, the words appearing as they are written. Transcribing costs 1 AI credit per started five minutes (6 for the full thirty).
For comments and notes, you choose Keep or Delete audio after transcription. The transcript stays either way. Kept recordings can be played in place and appear on All Recordings with their transcript and a link back to the source table. Audio from AI prompt boxes is never kept: it is uploaded only to be transcribed, and deleted as soon as its words are in the box.
In a table's Audio section you record or upload first and the audio is simply kept; press Transcribe on an item when you want its text. There a recording or file can run up to 30 minutes and 150 MB, and transcribing it costs the same, 1 AI credit per started five minutes.
What AI models and providers are available?
Four of the world's leading AI labs, in one menu. Google's Gemini is the default; one click next to Fast or Thinking hands your question to Google's Gemini 4 Argon, Anthropic's Claude, OpenAI's GPT-6 or xAI's Grok instead, each working from your own tables, notes and history.

Every answer is signed with the model that wrote it and the credits it used, and you see the price range before you send. If a model is busy, Gemini steps in at Gemini's price. Your request goes straight to the lab you picked, which doesn't train its models on it. Your free trial runs Gemini 3 Flash and 3.8 Flash, Claude Haiku 5.5 and GPT-6 Luna; every other model, Gemini 4 Argon included, is on paid plans.
What are AI credits and how do they reset?
AI credits power every AI action — generating tasks from text, summarising a table, running AI Plan, producing AI Review, or chatting with SelfManager's AI. Requests start at 1 credit on the Fast model and 5 credits on the Thinking model. You pick the model from a pill on the input bar before sending, so you only pay the higher rate when you want the deeper response.
Beyond that starting price, cost rises with how much data the request carries and how long the answer is. Reviewing a week of work on Fast typically costs 1 credit and a month 2; on Thinking a week is 5 and a month around 9. A quarter, or tables holding hundreds of tasks, notes and comments, costs more again, and so does a very long answer. The prices you see before anything runs are estimates, and you're charged for what the AI actually reads and writes. A request carrying a lot of data asks you first.
The Individual plan includes 35 AI credits per week and the Team plan includes 70. Credits reset every Monday. Purchased credits never expire, unlike the weekly credits included in your subscription.
What's the difference between Fast and Thinking?
Fast is built for everyday actions — short replies, quick summaries, simple plan generation. It starts at 1 credit.
Thinking is the deeper-reasoning model — better for complex multi-step plans, long lookback windows, and substantive clarifying questions. It starts at 5 credits, because it reads and reasons over far more before answering.
Both rise with how much data the request carries and how long the answer is, so reviewing a quarter costs more than reviewing a week on either model. Before anything runs you see an estimate, and you're charged for what the AI actually uses. With Claude, GPT, Grok and Gemini 4 Argon in Thinking, an answer, plan or table cut short once the AI has started on it (by Stop, by closing the page, or by a lost connection), even before its first words, is charged the most it could cost, because their thinking cannot be counted once it is cut. A plan or table starts only when your credits cover the most it could cost; on the other models, one cut short is charged at most its starting price.
You can switch between them on every chat input via the model pill, so the cost matches the depth you actually want.
What if I run out of AI credits?
You can purchase additional AI credits at any time from your Subscription page. The minimum purchase is 50 credits for $2.50, with no maximum. Unlike the weekly credits included in your subscription, purchased credits never expire and roll over indefinitely.
Can I use SelfManager.ai without the AI features?
Yes. AI is opt-in. Every core feature (tables, tasks, time tracking, comments, file uploads, collaboration) works without using a single AI credit.
Does SelfManager.ai have mobile apps?
Native apps for iOS and Android are in development and will be released soon.
In the meantime, you can use SelfManager.ai on your phone or tablet through any modern browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) and add it to your home screen for app-like access. All your data syncs in real time across every device.
Can I upload images?
Yes. You can upload up to 200 images per table, stored at original quality with no compression. There's also a global gallery view that shows every image across all your tables.
Can I add docs, such as PDFs and Word files, to a table?
Yes. Every table has a Docs section, after Audio. Add PDFs and Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OpenDocument, text, Markdown and CSV files of up to 50 MB each, see who added each one and when, and download them. On a shared table everyone can download, and the owner, admins and members can add and delete docs. All › Docs lists every doc on your tables and on tables shared with you. Each file is checked on our servers from its contents, not its name, and Office files with macros are refused. Docs count toward the table owner's plan: 5 GB on Individual and 25 GB on Team.
Tick Docs in the AI menu, on a table, the pinned bar, AI Review or AI Plan, and the AI reads the docs on those tables. Claude, GPT and Gemini get each PDF as the file itself, scans included, and Word and PowerPoint docs made into PDFs, so they see them as they look; Grok gets their text. Before anything is sent, the confirm says how many docs go, their pages and what it costs.
Is there built-in time tracking?
Yes. SelfManager.ai includes a built-in start/stop timer for precise tracking, plus manual time entry. You get per-task and per-table totals, weekly breakdowns by day, and time analytics by priority and status.
Can I customize the interface?
Yes, and all customization is optional. You can resize the left sidebar and the top hero, customize their colors, switch between light and dark mode at any time, and write a daily Self Message for motivation or quick notes to yourself. Every change syncs across your devices.
Does SelfManager.ai support Markdown?
Notes on every table use a rich text editor with bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, inline code, H2/H3 headings, bulleted and numbered lists, and links. Use the toolbar or keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl/Cmd+B, +I, +U). Typing a URL auto-converts to a link.
You can paste formatted content from Google Docs, Word, or web pages with formatting preserved (and sanitized for safety), and a one-click "Clear formatting" button strips everything back to plain text if you need a clean slate. Markdown syntax characters like asterisks or pound signs are not parsed.
Can I change my login provider later?
Yes. Once your account is created with any of the supported login providers, you can link additional providers from your account settings and use any of them to sign in to the same account. So you can sign up with Google today and add Apple, X/Twitter, Microsoft, Facebook, email, or phone later, in any combination.
MCP & API
What is the SelfManager.ai MCP server?
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI assistants use to work with other apps. The SelfManager.ai MCP server lets any AI assistant that supports MCP work with your tables: ask what's on today's list, plan tomorrow as a table with its tasks, mark a task done, find your notes, or add a comment. It's available now: to connect, write to marian@selfmanager.ai from the address you sign in with.
Which AI assistants work with SelfManager.ai?
Any assistant or app that supports MCP: Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, LM Studio and more. You add SelfManager.ai in the app's connector or MCP settings (in ChatGPT, with developer mode on), or with a personal API key in apps that can't sign in.
How do I stay in control of what an assistant can do?
You approve every connection on selfmanager.ai, signed in as usual, and see which account is connecting and what the assistant asks to do. An assistant acts only as you, on what your account can already see, and a connection can be read-only.
Every connected assistant and API key is listed in your profile, where you can disconnect it at any time, and each new one sends you a notification.
What can't an assistant do?
It can't delete many things at once, delete anything in a table other people can see except your own comment, rewrite your notes or comments, share tables or change anyone's role, turn a table's log off, change the settings of a table other people can see, hear your recordings (it can read their transcripts), or open your docs' files (it can read their text). SelfManager.ai's own AI, such as AI Plan and AI Review, stays in the app. Ask for one of these and your assistant tells you to do it in the app.
Some changes remove something, so they are flagged for your assistant to ask you first: reopening a task clears the time recorded for it, rewriting a day's journal line replaces it (the old line is kept for you to bring back), and changing a repeating table can replace the tasks and notes its new copies start with, and, if you ask, the tasks of copies made for coming days that nobody worked in.
Can an assistant delete things?
Only if you tick "Also delete" when you connect it: it is off unless you do, and connections made before keep what they were given. Then it deletes one thing at a time: a task, a comment with its images and voice recordings, an image, a recording, a doc, a table's notes, or a whole table after showing you what is in it, in a table only you can see; in a table other people can see, only your own comment, if you also ticked the box for tables other people can see. It can also delete a repeating table (the tables it already made stay) and, with your journal, clear a day's journal line, which is kept for you to bring back. A doc, or a table with docs, also needs 'Also read your docs' ticked.
Each delete is flagged for your assistant to ask you first, and can't be undone. Cleared notes stay one undo away in the app. An assistant can delete up to 100 things and 10 whole tables a day, and every delete is listed on your Assistant activity page and, where the table keeps a log, in its log (a doc's delete only on the activity page, as SelfManager.ai logs none for a doc). Deleting is free.
Can an assistant rewrite my journal?
Yes, if it may read your journal and make changes: it rewrites a day's line, and with 'Also delete' it can clear one. It asks you first, and the line it replaces is kept. To bring it back, open that day in SelfManager.ai, choose Previous versions on the Self message, and Restore: the line you replace then is kept too, so you can switch back. Up to 20 old lines a day are kept, and they are in your data export.
Can an assistant mention people?
Yes, in a comment on a table other people can see, if you ticked the box for those tables: it mentions people on the table by name (its owner and the people who joined it) and each gets the notice they would get from you, marked with the assistant's name. It asks you first, and mentions up to 10 people a comment and 20 a day. It never sees anyone's email address.
Can an assistant make or delete a repeating table?
Yes. It makes one as SelfManager.ai does, with its tasks, notes and schedule, starting today or later, and each day it repeats on gets its table when that day is opened. It can change one as the Repeats page does, and with 'Also delete' delete one: no new copies are made, and the tables it already made stay. It asks you first each time.
Can an assistant see what is shared, and my AI credits?
Yes. It can list the tables other people share with you, and your tables other people can see, with who is on each and their role, by name, never an email. It can also read your AI credits (this week's, the ones you bought, and when they renew) and what used them, as your AI Usage page shows (a Team owner's assistant can read the team's usage too), and how much of your docs storage your docs take, extra space included. All of this is free.
Can an assistant read all my comments and notes at once?
Yes. It can list every comment you can see, newest first, on your tables and on tables shared with you, as All › Comments shows them, with who wrote each, by name, never an email. It can list every table's notes the same way, as All › Notes shows them, with whose table each is. Someone removed from a table loses its comments and notes at once. Long ones come cut, and your assistant can open the table to read more of one. This is free.
Can an assistant move a table to another day?
Yes, a table of yours that nobody else sees, if you ticked the delete box when connecting: everything comes with it. It asks you first. While it moves, the table stays where it is, and editing it then stops the move, so nothing is ever half-moved. For a few minutes afterwards, anything saved to the old day from another tab is carried over.
It can also copy one of your tables, as Duplicate does in the app, with or without its comments, images, audio, notes and log; the copy is yours alone. Copying or moving a table uses 1 AI credit, charged once it is done.
A table with docs moves only if you also ticked 'Also read your docs', and then its docs move with it. A copy brings its docs only with that box too, as far as your storage allows; without it, the docs stay behind and the assistant says so.
Can an assistant see my images?
Only if you tick 'Also see your images and voice recordings' when you connect it. Then it can list and see images, and read voice recordings' transcripts, on tables you can see, with who added each: on a table you share, that includes what other people on it added, as it does for you in the app. It can't hear recordings. Each image it sees uses 1 AI credit.
Can an assistant read my docs?
Only if you tick 'Also read your docs' when you connect it. Then it can list the docs on tables you can see, with who added each, and read their text, a page at a time: on a table you share, that includes docs other people on it added. It gets the text SelfManager.ai read from each file when it was added, never the file itself, marked as a file's contents: something to read, not instructions to follow.
A scan, an old Office file (.doc, .xls, .ppt) or an .rtf has no text it can read, and a doc added before SelfManager.ai read docs has none until you add it again. Listing and reading docs is free.
Can an assistant set deadlines?
Yes, as in the app: a day, or a day and a time, with a reminder, for you or, on a table other people can see, for everyone on it, each of whom is then reminded. On a table other people can see, setting or removing any deadline needs the box for tables other people can see, and a deadline someone else set is changed only once you agree. It asks you first, and sets at most 50 deadlines for everyone a day (deadlines that remind only you have no limit, as in the app).
It can also pin and unpin tables, and record how long a task took, as the timer or Task Settings would.
What is the SelfManager.ai API?
A REST API, in private beta, that you call from your own code with a personal API key: it reads your days and tables, and with the right key adds tables, tasks, comments and notes, completes and edits tasks, sets deadlines, moves tables to another day, and, if you allow it, downloads your images, recordings and docs or deletes one thing at a time. Webhooks send what happens in your tables to an address of yours: a table or task made, changed, moved, completed or deleted, a comment, a deadline set or reached. To join the beta, write to marian@selfmanager.ai from the address you sign in with.
Our own apps for Zapier, Make and n8n are coming soon, so people who don't write code can connect too; until then, developers use the API and webhooks directly. With them, a starred email could add a task to a table called Inbox, a new booking could create a table on the meeting's date, and a completed task could post to Slack.
Can SelfManager.ai sync with Google Calendar or Apple Calendar?
Yes, through the API and webhooks, in private beta: they keep Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar and SelfManager.ai in step, both ways. A calendar event made, changed, moved or deleted can make, rename, move or delete a table on its day, and webhooks tell the calendar's side when a table or task is made, changed, moved, completed or deleted. Links tie each calendar event to its table or task, and follow a table that moves.
A table belongs to a day, so it becomes an all-day event; a task's deadline can have a time. Our own apps for Zapier, Make and n8n are coming soon, so people who don't write code can set it up too; until then, developers connect it through the API and webhooks.
When can I use MCP and the API, and what do they cost?
The MCP server is available now: to connect, write to marian@selfmanager.ai from the address you sign in with. The API and webhooks are in a private beta: write to the same address to join. All of them need an active SelfManager.ai plan; the 7-day trial counts.
An assistant's requests use your AI credits, the same ones SelfManager.ai's own AI features use, at one price for every assistant and app. Reading a day, a table or a list, what is shared, or your AI credits and usage, ticking or editing tasks, recording how long a task took, setting deadlines, pinning tables, listing images, recordings and docs, reading a transcript or a doc's text, editing a repeating table, changing a table's settings, and deleting, are free. Reading several days or totals, searching, seeing an image, copying or moving a table (charged once it is done), and adding tables, repeating tables, tasks, comments, notes, journal lines or a conversation saved to AI History, or rewriting a journal line, use 1 AI credit a request: a long range is read a page at a time, each page one request. Tasks use 1 AI credit for every 25 added or part of 25, a new table's first 25 included, and making many tables at once 1 AI credit for every 10 tables or part of 10 (30 daily tables of up to 25 tasks each are 3 credits); one request adds up to 200 tasks to a table, and up to 1,000 tables. AI credits are what SelfManager.ai's AI runs on: the Individual plan includes 35 a week and the Team plan 70, renewed every Monday (UTC) and used before any you buy; more cost $0.05 a credit, from 50 credits ($2.50), and never expire. Each charged request shows on your AI Usage page with the app's name.
The API and webhooks use Integration Credits instead, kept apart from AI credits: 100 a week on the Individual plan, the 7-day trial too, and 300 on the Team plan, renewed every Monday (UTC); a Team plan's owner can let the people who can edit their tables use them. Reading one thing, changing what is already there, deleting, and managing webhooks and links are free. Reading several days or totals, searching, downloading a file, copying or moving a table, rewriting a journal line, and adding anything new use 1 Integration Credit a request, with tasks and tables at the same rates as above, and each webhook event uses 1 the first time it reaches your endpoint (its retries are free). Your AI Usage page lists what used them, under Integration Credits.
Comparisons
Is SelfManager.ai a good Notion alternative for daily planning?
Yes. For users who want daily planning specifically, SelfManager.ai is more focused than Notion. Notion is a flexible workspace; SelfManager.ai is a date-centric task manager where every day already has its own workspace. There is no setup, no templates, and no learning curve.
What's the best Trello alternative for individual users?
SelfManager.ai is built for individuals first, unlike Trello which is board-centric and designed for teams. SelfManager organizes work by date, includes 14 AI features, and offers built-in time tracking, file uploads, and comments at $8/month.
How does SelfManager.ai compare to Akiflow, Sunsama, or Motion?
Akiflow, Sunsama, and Motion are calendar-first AI task managers focused on time-blocking. SelfManager.ai is a date-centric task manager with AI Plan and AI Review built in. It does not time-block your calendar, but it gives you unlimited tables per day, a flat $30/month team plan, and end-to-end AI from planning to weekly review.
Pick SelfManager if you want flexible structure per day; pick the others if calendar time-blocking is your primary need.
Is SelfManager.ai better than Todoist for weekly reviews?
Yes for users who want AI-generated weekly reviews. Todoist has manual review workflows. SelfManager.ai has AI Review: pick any week, month, or quarter, and the AI reads every task you touched in that window and produces a streamed summary you can chat with.
Should I use SelfManager.ai or Apple Notes for personal tasks?
Apple Notes is great for free-form notes; SelfManager.ai is better when you want structured daily planning with task statuses, priorities, due dates, and AI-generated summaries. Apple Notes has no concept of tasks, deadlines, or progress tracking.
Trust & security
Is my data secure?
Yes. SelfManager.ai uses enterprise-grade encryption in transit and at rest, authentication through trusted providers (Google, Microsoft, Apple, X/Twitter, Facebook, email, phone), and data is backed up automatically.
Do you sell data or train AI on my content?
No. SelfManager.ai never sells user data and never trains AI models on your content. AI features send each request to the model you pick — Google's Gemini by default, or a model from Anthropic, xAI or OpenAI — and none of them trains its models on it. If that model can't answer, Gemini does. On a shared table, what members add, and their names, goes to the model picked by whoever uses an AI feature.
What login providers are supported?
Seven options: Google, Microsoft, Apple, X/Twitter, Facebook, email magic-link, and phone number. Sign-up takes seconds with any account you already have.
Is SelfManager.ai open source?
No. SelfManager.ai is a closed-source commercial product. We use enterprise-grade encryption in transit and at rest, authentication through trusted providers, and we never sell user data or train AI models on your content.
