Everyone now has their own, private, Sunsama-backed calendar.

This calendar is independent of your existing Google/Microsoft/Apple calendars.

You can create 'regular' calendar events (with some limitations), and schedule your Sunsama tasks to your Sunsama calendar.

The events you create on this calendar are private. They are only visible to you from within your Sunsama workspace.

The primary intent of this calendar is to give you a place to visualize your tasks on your calendar without polluting your regular Google/Outlook/Apple calendar.

Your Sunsama-backed calendar is not intended to be used as a full calendar replacement.

You can't:

For full calendaring functionality, you can connect your other existing calendars.

You can choose which calendar to use as the default when scheduling your tasks, and, separately, which calendar to use as the default when scheduling your calendar events, from your calendar settings page.

We recommend making your Sunsama calendar your default for scheduling tasks, and your primary Google/Microsoft/Apple calendar your default for scheduling events.

When you create regular calendar events, you'll have the option to change the calendar to schedule the event to.

We're excited to officially launch Daily Highlights.

This was our big project of 2024, and it's now available to everyone.

A daily highlight is an end-of-day summary. It highlights the work you did, and gives you a place to reflect on your day.

The magic here is that Sunsama automates the work of generating and summarizing the list of things you worked on each day. This information is pulled in from the tools you connect, without needing to have created tasks for everything already in Sunsama.

Daily highlights are created as part of the daily shutdown ritual. Once you've enabled the beta (via the beta settings page), all you need to do is enter the daily shutdown ritual when you're ready to wrap up, and Sunsama will take care of generating your daily highlights draft.

You can edit the work you want to highlight, and then publish it. If you work with a team, you can share your daily highlights directly via email, Slack, Teams, or direct link. If you'd rather keep your daily highlights private, you can just publish it in Sunsama. This will give you a succinct historical record you can scroll through via the new Daily Highlights page whenever you need to reflect on what you did in the past.

This should be useful for preparing for weekly 1:1s or performance evaluations.

Since this is still in beta, we are eager for feedback. In particular, if you find that your daily wraps are missing key aspects of your day, or aren't doing a good job summarizing your work, please let us know.

Note that a few integrations still aren't supported for auto-generation: Todoist, Apple Calendar, and Notion support will be coming soon.
