Productivity Tools

Simple, effective tools for time management and focused work

What's in this category

Small, focused utilities for staying on task and coordinating across time zones. No notifications you didn't ask for, no streaks to maintain, no AI suggesting you "optimize your workflow." Just a Pomodoro timer that beeps when the interval is up, a scratchpad that saves what you type, and a meeting planner that respects everyone's working hours.

The Pomodoro Timer runs configurable work/break intervals with audible cues. Plaintext Scratchpad is a persistent textarea that autosaves to your browser — perfect for capturing stray thoughts during a meeting without opening a "real" notes app. Timezone Meeting Planner lays out business-hours overlap across multiple locations, including a polar globe view, so you can find a workable meeting time at a glance.

Timezone Meeting Planner

Pick a time in your home timezone and instantly see what it looks like everywhere else. Business-hours indicators (green/yellow/red) make it obvious when you've found a workable overlap.

Open Planner

Nothing to install, nothing to log in to

Everything saves locally to your browser — close the tab and your timer, notes, or meeting setup will still be there next visit. No account, no sync to a cloud service that might disappear, no subscription holding your data hostage.

Useful next: System Tools for technical tasks during a focused work block (regex, log parsing, cron). Network Tools when the block is subnet planning or bandwidth math. Financial Tools pairs well with a Pomodoro session focused on budgeting.
