Unreal Dialogue System
A time-keeping app for makers — paint your day like a canvas. iOS, macOS, and the open web.
Visit sundial.appBuild the calendar a freelancer or maker would actually want — one that respects deep work, time blocking, and the fact that some days are mostly tea.
Sundial reimagines the calendar for people whose work is deep and self-directed. Instead of booking boxes, you paint your day — and the week becomes a record of what you actually did.
Paint your day
Drag colored 'pigments' — your projects — across the hours of a horizontal day strip. Time-blocking feels like sketching, not data entry, and the result is a day you can read at a glance.
The week as a canvas
Stack your painted days and the week becomes a single image: an honest, sometimes beautiful picture of where your hours really went. No more weeks of empty meeting-boxes implying you did nothing.
Quiet by design
No notifications, ever. Sundial never interrupts you mid-flow — you come back to it when you want to plan or reflect, and it's waiting, calm, exactly where you left it.
Everywhere you are
Native on iOS and macOS and available on the open web, all from one codebase, so your week looks and feels the same whether you're at your desk or on your phone.
Local-first, yours
Your data lives on your device first and syncs quietly in the background. It's fast, it works offline, and it's genuinely your record — not fuel for someone's analytics.
Every calendar I tried was built for meetings, and I don't live in meetings — I live in long, messy stretches of making. I built Sundial so my week would finally look like the work I actually do, in color, like a canvas.
