Background

Life is complicated! Between all our responsibilities, events, tasks and thoughts, it's not fair to ask our brains to remember and manage everything. Most consumers and workers today rely on multiple productivity apps to manage their daily lives. I personally have separate tools for calendars, to-do lists, general lists, quick personal notes, more organized notes, and planning, on top of the productivity tools used at work. Hours are wasted each week switching between these different products, syncing through various platforms, and often losing valuable information along the way. Studies show that the average worker wastes up to 60 minutes every day navigating between apps1. For tools that are supposed to make life more efficient, they sure seem inefficient. Born out of this frustruation, Faire is the product that ties it all together. A seamless combination of calendars, lists, notes, and more to manage all aspects of our lives.

Market opportunity

Current productivity apps usually focus on just one thing: calendars, to-do lists, grocery lists, notes, or some other singular vector of productivity. But we all have multiple vectors of productivity needs. As a result, we're left to rely on different apps for each purpose. Furthermore, most productivity and work management platforms are web-centric, with mobile experiences that are either challenging to navigate or overly simplified to the point of being impractical. However, for someone like me who is often on the go with just my phone, a robust mobile experience is essential. Faire perfectly fills this market gap - the single source for personal productivity management, optimized for mobile.
