AI-powered daily planning

Each of your tools knows part of your day. Vela knows all of it.

Commitments made in Slack, follow-ups buried in email, action items from yesterday's meeting — scattered across everything, carried in your head. Vela brings it all together so you can start your day confident you're working on the right things.

GOAL-DRIVEN PLANNING

Always working towards something that matters.

Vela starts with your weekly goals and builds your day backwards from there — so the most important things get done, not just the most urgent ones.

THIS WEEK'S GOALS
1
Ship v2.0 launch campaign
2
Close Q1 financial review
3
Hire senior engineer

Vela: Your launch campaign is 2/3 done. Today's focus should be the press kit — you mentioned it Friday. Want me to block 2 hours this morning?
AUTOMATIC CAPTURE

Every loose end, found.

The follow-up you meant to send, the action item from Tuesday's meeting, the Slack thread you flagged — Vela finds them across the tools you use most and brings them to you.

PROACTIVE AI

Gets smarter every day.

Vela notices when you underestimate tasks, which times of day you do your best work, and what keeps getting pushed off. The longer you use it, the better it knows you.

Yesterday's reflection
Win: Shipped the launch page ahead of schedule
Friction: Back-to-back meetings killed afternoon focus
Insight: Morning deep work blocks are non-negotiable
💡
Vela noticed: You've rescheduled "Update docs" 4 times this week. Want to break it into smaller tasks, delegate it, or drop it entirely?

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to a better day

1

Connect your tools

Link Google Calendar, Todoist, and your email. Vela reads your schedule, tasks, and inbox to understand your world.

2

Talk through your day

Tell Vela what matters. It asks the right follow-ups, logs tasks as you talk, and proposes a schedule. Voice or text — your call.

3

Vela handles the rest

Tasks land on your calendar, new action items get triaged, and Vela learns from every day to plan tomorrow better.

MORE FEATURES

Built for people who plan seriously

Weekly goals with teeth

Set goals on Monday, track key tasks all week, review what happened on Friday. A 4-phase AI retrospective keeps you honest and adjusts the plan.

Hands-free voice mode

Toggle voice: speak your priorities, Vela responds aloud, mic re-opens automatically. Full planning without touching the keyboard. Silence detection stops recording naturally.

Smart calendar scheduling

Drag tasks onto your timeline. Vela detects conflicts, finds free slots, and adds travel buffers around in-person meetings. Changes sync to Google Calendar in real-time.

Todoist two-way sync

Vela pulls from Todoist and pushes back. Edits, completions, and new tasks sync in real-time. No migration required, no lock-in.

Your data stays yours

Vela connects to your tools but never stores your data. The only external calls are to AI APIs — using your own keys, on your own terms.

FAQ

Common questions

What tools does Vela integrate with?
Vela connects to Google Calendar (two-way sync), Todoist (task management), Gmail (action item extraction), Slack, Granola (meeting notes), and Zoom transcripts. More integrations are on the roadmap.
Is my data private?
Yes. Vela never stores your data on our servers. Your tasks, calendar events, and conversations stay with you. The only external calls are to AI APIs using your own keys, on your own terms. You can revoke access to any integration at any time.
How much does it cost?
Vela is free during the beta period. You'll need your own API keys for Claude, and optionally Groq (voice transcription) and OpenAI (text-to-speech). Typical daily usage costs pennies in API calls.
Do I need a Todoist account?
Yes, Vela uses Todoist as its task backend. Your existing tasks and projects are pulled in automatically. Edits in Vela sync back to Todoist in real-time.
How does the AI planning work?
Vela uses Claude to have a natural planning conversation each morning. It sees your calendar, open tasks, weekly goals, and learned patterns. As you talk, it logs tasks, proposes time slots, and builds your schedule. You confirm, adjust, and go.
Can I use voice instead of typing?
Absolutely. Toggle voice mode and plan hands-free. Vela uses Groq Whisper for fast transcription, responds in text, and optionally speaks the response aloud. Silence detection auto-stops recording so it feels like a natural conversation.
