Notion alternative

A Notion alternative built for delivery work

Planner.day is a Notion alternative built for delivery work. Statuses, priorities, owners and dates behave as such by default, per-list statuses roll up to shared categories so reporting works across lists, and dashboards drill through to the tasks behind a number. A built-in MCP server with 43 tools lets an assistant operate the workspace under your permissions. Basic is ₹500 per user per month, billed in rupees with a GST invoice.

Five questions for a Notion replacement

  1. Is a task a task by default?

    Yes. Statuses, priorities, assignees and due dates are built in rather than properties you configure.

  2. Does reporting work across lists?

    Per-list statuses belong to categories (not started, in progress, done, closed), and a status can be flagged as blocked, so blockers surface separately from ordinary work in progress.

  3. Can you click a chart and see the tasks?

    Dashboards drill through to the tasks behind any number.

  4. What exactly can your AI assistant do, and under whose permissions?

    The MCP server has 43 tools covering tasks, projects, people, sprints, comments and chat. Each token is limited to its scopes and allowed workspaces, under the same permission checks as the web interface.

  5. Where does customer feedback go?

    An in-product widget, a triage queue, a public roadmap with anonymous voting, and an automatic email to every linked reporter when the task ships.

What a task carries the moment you create it

In Planner.day a task arrives with a status, a priority, assignees, a start and due date, an estimate and a type, and it can hold subtasks five levels deep, checklists, comments, files and followers. There is nothing to set up before the first task.

Every list keeps its own status names, and each status belongs to one of four shared categories. That is what lets a report or dashboard read across lists: cycle time, throughput and overdue work are comparable between teams that name their columns differently.
