Why not Notion?
Storage isn't a calendar
Notion holds your notes. Google Calendar holds your meetings. Polylane connects what you're building, where it ships, and when you do the work.

Same data — drag straight to today
An independent comparison by the Polylane team — the longer version says where Notion is the better answer.

The polymath loop
Matrix → Link → Calendar
Same data, three views. This is what Polylane does — nothing else tries all three in one surface.
See everything
Projects × channels in one matrix. Every pursuit at a glance.
Link what moves together
Batch launch tasks. Reschedule as one unit — not three tabs.
Schedule your day
Drag to the calendar. Linked batches stack or run back-to-back.
What you get
Six things you will use in the first week
Each one is shipped today, not planned. The changelog carries the date every one of them landed.
Every project, every channel, one grid
Projects run down the side, channels across the top. You see what is in flight everywhere at once, instead of holding it across three tabs.
Zoom into one project with Flow
Same data, different layout. Flow shows a single project as channel, then tasks, then links — for when the whole grid is more than you need.
Link what ships together
An episode, its reel, and the newsletter announcing it are one piece of work. Link them once and they move together from then on.
Drag a whole batch into a day
The calendar reads the same tasks, so scheduling is a drag rather than a re-entry. Move the batch and every linked piece moves with it.
Bring in what you already have
Import a CSV from Notion, Todoist, or anywhere else. You see exactly what will be created before anything is written, and importing the same file twice adds nothing.
Take everything with you
Account → Export gives you JSON, or a CSV of every task with its project, channel, and schedule. Paid plans export the calendar as .ics.
Calendar connections
Connects to Google Calendar and Outlook
Polylane plans across your projects. Your calendar already knows what the day owes. Connecting them means you stop planning into hours you had already given away.
Reads your day
The meetings already on your Google or Outlook calendar appear as shaded busy time behind your plan, so a full day looks full before you fill it.
Writes only what you push
Blocks you schedule can be sent to a calendar you have marked writable. It is off by default, per calendar, and never touches anything you did not schedule here.
Yours to disconnect
Connect up to eight accounts across both providers, label each one work or personal, and disconnect any of them at any time from Account settings.
Connecting a calendar is optional and Polylane works fully without it. We read your events only while you are looking at that day and keep no copy of them; access tokens are encrypted and deleted when you disconnect. How we handle Google user data →
Pricing
Start Solo today. Add your team on Studio.
14-day trial, no card. After trial: Free keeps 2 projects — or upgrade for unlimited.
Why trust this yet
Polylane is new. Here is what you can check.
There are no testimonials on this page because there are no customers to quote yet. When there are, they will be real people with real names who agreed to be here. Until then, these are the things you can verify for yourself.
Built in the open
Every change is listed with the date it shipped. Nothing is described as coming soon on the pricing page.
See the changelog →A real guarantee
14 days, money back, no form and no questions. Cancelling takes two clicks and never deletes anything you made.
Read the refund policy →A named company
Kreativish AI Powered by SMAT Solutions Pvt Ltd, GSTIN 36ABOCS7049B1Z4, with a registered address and a support address that a person answers.
Who you're buying from →What we don't claim
No SOC 2, no ISO certification, no penetration test, and no user count to quote. The security page says exactly what is and isn't true.
See the security page →Shipping in public
The roadmap says what is being built and in what order, including the parts that are not started. Items move to the changelog when they ship, not when they are promised.
See what's next →Running right now
The status page reports from the same health check the app runs against, so an outage shows up here whether or not anybody reports it.

Where it runs
Works on every device you already own
One plan, wherever you open it. There is nothing to install unless you want the icon.
Desktop browser
The full matrix, keyboard shortcuts, and drag-to-schedule. Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge.
Phone and tablet
Install it from the browser and it takes a home-screen icon that opens straight into your matrix. No store, no update prompts.
Offline
Keeps working when the connection drops, and syncs what changed once it returns.
Native iOS and Android apps are being built and are not released yet. Track them on the roadmap →

Polymath Diaries
polylane.app
Dear fellow polymath,
I was planning YouTube, courses, and client work in three different tools. Every launch meant copying dates, fixing broken links, and hoping nothing slipped through.
So I built Polylane — the system I wished existed. One matrix for every pursuit, links for what moves together, and a calendar for when it actually happens.
My hope is it gives you the same clarity it gave me: see the whole picture, then drag what matters into today.
P.S. I'm documenting the build on Polymath Diaries — follow along on YouTube or Instagram if you want to see how Polylane takes shape.
Questions
Before you start
Solo polymaths ship today. So do teams — Studio is sold per seat.
How is this different from Notion + Google Calendar?
Notion stores and a calendar holds slots — neither knows that your episode, its reel and its newsletter are one piece of work. Polylane puts projects and channels on one grid, lets you link what moves together, and drags the whole batch into a day at once.
What happens after the 14-day trial?
You move to Free unless you upgrade. Free keeps two projects and unlimited tasks on the device you're using. Nothing is deleted — projects beyond the limit go read-only and unlock again the moment you subscribe.
Do I need a card to start?
No. Signup includes 14 days of Solo with no card. If you upgrade partway through, the days you have left carry over rather than being forfeited.
Can I get my data out?
Whenever you like, without asking. Account → Export downloads everything as JSON, or as a CSV of tasks with their project, channel and schedule. Paid plans also export the calendar as .ics.
Can I bring in what I already have?
Import a CSV export from Notion, Todoist or anything else. You see exactly what will be created before anything is written, and importing the same file twice adds nothing — tasks are matched by name within a project and channel.
Does it work on my phone?
It installs from the browser — home-screen icon, opens straight into your matrix, and keeps working when the connection drops. There is no native App Store build yet.
What if I don't like it?
Every paid plan has a 14-day money-back guarantee, with no form and no questions. Cancelling takes two clicks, keeps your access until the end of the period you paid for, and deletes nothing.
Can my team use it today?
Yes. Studio is a shared workspace priced per seat — from 2 seats up to 20 — with one matrix and one calendar the whole team edits.
Where is my data, and who can see it?
In Supabase, behind row-level security, so a query can only ever return your own rows. Card details never reach us — Stripe and Razorpay handle those. The security page lists what we do and, just as importantly, what we don't claim.
