One clear next move
Priority and overdue work rise above the rest without hiding your actual day.
brieflyOS 1.3 beta
Your day,
with less noise.
Calendar, reminders, Smart Triage, and fast capture come together in one focused daily workspace.
One next move
Then the rest of your day.
Private by design
Your data stays in Apple systems.

See the decision.
Not the clutter.
Focus Lane uses your priority baseline to surface the one task that matters, keeps what is next close, and leaves everything else within reach.
Useful time horizons
Move between Today, Tomorrow, Next 3 Days, and Next Week without an endless date strip.
Triage without losing anything
Archive a duplicate or time hold from brieflyOS while leaving the original Calendar or Reminder item intact.
Smart Triage
Turn a crowded Inbox
into an editable plan.
brieflyOS creates a reliable priority baseline first, then can add context with private on-device intelligence or an AI provider you choose.
Review before apply
You stay in control.
Every suggestion remains an editable draft. Adjust the title, due date, all-day setting, Reminder List, priority, or tags before anything changes.

Priority Baseline
Built-in rules sort reliably without an internet connection, an AI account, or sending your tasks anywhere.
Apple On-Device
On supported devices, Apple Foundation Models can add context while processing stays on your device.
OpenAI Luna
Bring your own API key for optional cloud-assisted triage. It is never contacted until you enable it.
Capture before the thought disappears.
Type naturally. brieflyOS recognizes dates, times, and tags while you write, then saves with one action.

Your plans are not the product.
No ads. No tracking. No data brokers. Calendar and Reminder items remain in Apple system stores. Notes sync through your private iCloud database.
Good questions.
Clear answers.
Does brieflyOS replace Calendar or Reminders?
No. It gives you a focused working view while your events and reminders remain in Apple system apps.
Does it require an account?
No brieflyOS account is required. iCloud features use the Apple ID already signed in on your devices.
Can I use it without location or microphone access?
Yes. Those permissions are optional and only support location alerts, dictation, and voice capture.
Does Smart Triage send my tasks to AI?
Not by default. Built-in rules work locally, Apple On-Device intelligence stays on supported devices, and OpenAI Luna is contacted only if you explicitly enable it with your own API key.
Which devices are supported?
brieflyOS 1.3 supports iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch running version 26 or newer.
