Detailed Description
We built Chunk because we kept bouncing between calendars, notes, and a dozen other apps just to stay on track for the day. What we actually wanted was something dead simple: a way to break the day into focused chunks of time, always one shortcut away, never breaking your flow.
That's Chunk. It lives in your menu bar, slides down over whatever you're doing (yes, including fullscreen apps), and keeps a live countdown ticking in your tray so you always know how much time you have left on your current task.
What makes it different:
✅ Works over fullscreen apps - no exiting, no desktop switching
✅ Templates & Routines let you build your ideal day once and auto-apply it every week
✅ Fullscreen notifications that actually get your attention when it's time to switch
✅ Todo mode to capture and schedule tasks without leaving the menu bar
✅ Google, Outlook and Apple Calendar sync built in
✅ Apple Reminders integration - your existing tasks, right alongside your time blocks
✅ Claude Desktop integration via a local MCP server - ask Claude to plan your day, and it reads and writes directly to your schedule
✅ Not another Electron app
It started as a tool we built for ourselves and use every single day. It's now at v2.0 with a week view, analytics, 25 languages, more integrations and plans for so much more...
Would love you all to have a go and let us know any feedback or integrations you'd like to see added.
There a free trial for 7 days and its no credit card required.
