Frequently Asked Questions

SelfManager.ai is a date-centric AI task manager where each day has its own workspace with unlimited tables for tasks, notes, files, and comments. Built-in AI plans your week ahead and reviews any week, month, or quarter you choose.

There are no per-seat fees: the Team plan is a flat $30/month for unlimited collaborators.

SelfManager.ai uses Google's Gemini models today, with Claude (Anthropic) models planned for the near future so users can choose between them.

Every AI action (summary, chat message, task generation, period review) uses credits. The Individual plan includes 35 AI credits per week, and the Team plan includes 70. Credits reset every Monday. Additional credits can be purchased anytime if you need more.

Yes. AI is opt-in. Every core feature (tables, tasks, time tracking, comments, file uploads, collaboration) works without using a single AI credit.

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.

Yes. You can upload up to 100 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

No. SelfManager.ai never sells user data and never trains AI models on your content. AI features call Google's Gemini API on a per-request basis, and your tables are never used for model training.

Seven options: Google, Microsoft, Apple, X/Twitter, Facebook, email magic-link, and phone number. Sign-up takes seconds with any account you already have.
