About simplido
Who am I
My name is Grzegorz, but you can call me Greg! Husband, father of two (plus one Corgi), amateur triathlete, art lover, and a software engineer from Poland. I’m passionate about productivity and been a GTD® practitioner for many years.
Why did I start working on simplido
I have decided to build simplido to address the following needs:
The missing Ultimate GTD® app
The ultimate GTD® app does not yet exist, and I intend to change that. I recognized this on my own, and so did the GTD® community along with David Allen himself. He even gave a presentation during the GTD Summit Conference in 2019, which fueled the spark even more. While I remain fully aware that Getting Things Done is really about how you approach things, I believe that we should hire software and computers to implement the majority of our productivity system.
Making "personal productivity" personal again
Existing "personal productivity apps" frequently fail to deliver proper support for the individual using them. Most of the time they are soulless, tools that leave the person in the dark - they have to “make it work” for themselves. simplido will emphasize the individuals and interactions by getting personal and providing necessary personal guidance.
We need to do less and live more
Existing solutions don’t promote healthy productivity. In simplido, "less is more". You will be encouraged to focus on things that matter and reach your goals more mindfully and effortlessly. That said, simplido takes on the mission to educate people about healthy productivity. In many ways, which include both in-app functionalities, but also actual education and training with groups and individuals.
We are in this together
I don’t want to "sell and forget" - most of the existing solutions for personal productivity have very little or no customer support. Leaving customers alone requires them to seek support in different communities. With simplido, I would like to establish a relationship, a community of healthy productivity practitioners. Create a living space for the people who want to get things done.
If I start using simplido, will it change my life?
Of that I’m sure, but I will need your help. The app is just the starting point.
While a great app can definitely help in achieving these ambitious goals, I remain fully aware of the fact that is not going to be enough. There is a lot of field work to be done in regards to education on healthy productivity in form of e-learning, traditional trainings and personalized coaching sessions. Thus, with simplido I wish to deliver a line of services helping individuals to become and stay productive.
All of this cannot happen without you and a thriving community and a personalized, premium-level support. I encourage you to join the Early Access Program to get involved in the project as early as possible.
It starts here and now.
You can enroll for Early Access to secure your spot among
the first people who can use the app.
