Ready Time

Backward planner that tells you when to start

Stop rushing. Start earlier.

Lose track of time? Struggle to start on time?

Ready Time works backward from your deadline. Set the moment you need to be done, add your steps, and it figures out when to start each one, then nudges you when each one's up.

  1. Set your deadline: the moment you need to be there.

  2. Add your steps: pack, shower, drive, whatever the routine is.

  3. Ready Time counts backward and tells you when to start.

Start from a calendar event and it builds the plan for you, working backward from the event's start time.

Knowing when to start is the hard part. Ready Time does the math for you.

The story: Ready Time started as Little Countdown, a side project I shipped a few years back. I relaunched it with a new name, a new look, and new features. Built in biweekly pairing sessions with a friend.

You already know what you need to do. Ready Time just tells you when.

Use it for:

  • Morning routines: know exactly when to wake up

  • Catching a flight: from packing to boarding, timed out

  • Getting kids out the door: the calm version of your morning

  • Dinner prep: work backward from "guests arrive at 7"
