Mindful daily planner
A daily planning ritual: pull tasks from your tools, decide what makes today's list, timebox them on the calendar. Strong for people who want a slow, deliberate planning practice.
Sunsama asks you to plan your day mindfully every morning. Syve does the ranking for you overnight, against a strategy you defined once. Both aim at intention - they get there very differently.

If a 20-minute daily planning practice is a feature, not a cost, Sunsama is a lovely product. If those 20 minutes are exactly the thing you're trying to buy back, Syve does the planning for you against goals you set once.
