From deadline panic to a clear, actionable plan in under a minute. No account. No fluff.
Pick your assignment type — essay, research paper, presentation, project, or lab report — and add your start and due date. Takes under 30 seconds.
Planory.ai breaks your available time into research-backed phases with exact date ranges. Each phase shows what to do, how long to spend, and what good progress looks like.
The built-in assistant already knows your assignment title, type, and deadline. Ask it to find your sources, draft your outline, or write your opening paragraph — and go.
Most AI tools either do too little (a generic to-do list) or too much (writing the whole essay for you — which you cannot submit). Planory.ai sits in the gap your professors actually want to see: structured academic support that keeps the thinking yours.
🗺️
Every output is phase-specific. You get guidance matched to where you actually are in the assignment — not a generic response to a generic question.
🎯
The AI knows your assignment title, type, and deadline before you type a word. No re-explaining. No copy-pasting your brief into a chat box.
🛡️
Every response is intentionally partial. The assistant gives you a starting point — not a finished product. You can use it openly alongside your work.
🔓
No subscription. No signup wall. No "free trial with credit card." Enter your assignment, get your plan, start working. That is it.
A note on academic integrity: Planory.ai is academic support software — the same category as writing centres, tutoring, and study skills resources. It helps students plan and structure their work. It does not write assignments. Every AI output is a partial prompt designed to help you begin, not a submission-ready draft.
Research consistently finds that assignment procrastination is not laziness. It is caused by two specific triggers: not knowing where to start, and the task feeling too large to face as a single unit. The fix for both is identical — break the work into small, named steps with a concrete first action.
An empty document gives your brain no foothold. The question "how do I write this essay?" triggers avoidance because there is no clear answer. A phase-by-phase plan replaces that question with a specific, small task: "spend 90 minutes finding three sources on X."
A 3,000-word essay due in 10 days is impossible as a single task. Broken into six phases with time allocations — research, outline, draft, edit, proofread — it becomes six manageable sessions. This planner calculates the exact split based on your assignment type and deadline.
Even with a plan, many students freeze at the first phase. The AI assistant solves this directly: it gives you three sources to read, an outline to follow, and a first paragraph to build from. You always have something concrete to do next.
The AI assistant is embedded inside your plan, not bolted on as a separate chat. It already knows your title, assignment type, and deadline — so every response is specific to your work. Five tools, one purpose: getting you unstuck.
📚
3 credible academic sources with summaries and key takeaways, matched to your topic. Enough to start — not so many you spend an hour just reading.
🗂️
A structured outline with thesis direction, three main points with sub-bullets, and a conclusion angle — built for your assignment type.
✍️
A 3–5 sentence starter for any section — Introduction, Discussion, Body 1. The hardest sentence is always the first.
✨
Paste up to 500 characters and get targeted grammar, clarity, and structure feedback with an explanation of every change.
💬
Direct chat with an AI that knows your assignment. It keeps responses concise and redirects you back to your own thinking.

✍️
Five phases: topic selection (10%), research (25%), outline (10%), draft (40%), edit (15%). Calibrated to prevent the classic mistake: over-researching and running out of time to write.
