Plan your week, keep your notes in one place, and protect your focus time.

Nerdy is a free, open-source study planner for Windows, for students, teachers and anyone learning on their own.

Nerdy is in beta for Windows 10 (version 2004 or later) and Windows 11. Ready-made downloads are coming; for now you can build it from the source code.

Plan your week

A calendar for classes, events and study blocks, with repeats and reminders before they start.

Study blocks that start themselves

Mark a block to start a focus session automatically. You get a one-minute heads-up and can start now or skip.

To-dos that don't slip

Reminders with due dates that stay on screen until you mark them done or snooze them.

Notes and topics

Rich notes and checklists, and topics that track your progress through each subject and what's due next.

Focus and Ultra-Focus

During a session Nerdy hides or closes the apps you didn't allow. Ultra-Focus goes full screen and is hard to leave, with an emergency exit that always works.

Classes

Teachers create a class with a join code and assign tasks. Students choose whether to share their focus progress.
