You’ve been adapting to your planner. It should be the other way around.

Every planner on the shelf is a set of decisions someone else made: the layout, the trackers, the way Saturday and Sunday share a column. 80% right, and the other 20% wrong every single week.

Fix the 20%.

You decide. We do the rest.

Every planner starts in the Builder, where six decisions shape the pages. Make them all, or change one thing and leave the rest. Then your first month lands in your inbox as a PDF, free.

  1. Size

    Seven sizes: A6 for the bag, A5 for the desk, US Letter and A4 for the wall-to-wall week, Half Letter and Classic for the discbound crowd, B5 in between.

  2. Layout

    Five shapes for the week: a day to a page, a week to a page or a spread, a week beside its notes, or a timed vertical grid.

  3. Dates

    Start any month of any year and run up to 24 months. Weeks begin Monday or Sunday. Public holidays print on the page.

  4. Modules

    Nine to choose from: habit trackers, goals, to-dos, meal plans, budgets, reflections and more. Place them weekly, monthly or at the back.

  5. Colour

    An ink and an accent of your choosing carry through the cover and every page inside.

  6. Type and ruling

    Four typographic styles. Pages ruled dotted, lined, grid or blank, at the pitch your handwriting wants.

Three starting points for you to mould.

Open one in the Builder and change anything, or everything.

Yours, forever.

Nobody can discontinue you.

Your layout lives in a link you keep. No account, no login. Open it next October and run the same planner again, nothing to relearn. Or change what the year taught you. Either way the layout is yours, unchanged until you say so.

The whole of your layout

Same planner. New year.

Why Longhand exists.

We started Longhand after years of cutting pages out of planners that were almost right. The layout was right but the weekend got half a column. The paper was lovely but the trackers were someone else’s habits.

At some point the scissors stopped feeling like a fix. Decide the pages yourself, get them as a real planner you can hold, keep the layout for next year. That’s the whole idea. No method, no promises to change your life.

What you get.

  1. A free month first

    Build your planner, leave your email, and one month of it lands in your inbox as a PDF. Downloads for full planners are available soon.

  2. Print-ready, at your size

    The file is sized to the page you chose, so it goes straight through a home printer or a print shop with nothing to shrink or crop.

  3. Tablet-ready too

    Crisp vector pages that open in GoodNotes, Notability, reMarkable and Kindle Scribe like any other document.

Your questions answered.

How do I print it?

Your planner arrives as a print-ready PDF sized to the page you chose, so any home printer or print shop handles it. Pick A4, A5, A6 or B5 if your printer thinks in ISO paper, US Letter or Half Letter if it thinks in inches, or Classic for discbound covers.

Does it work on a tablet?

Yes. The PDF opens in GoodNotes, Notability, and on reMarkable and Kindle Scribe like any other document, and every page is crisp vector, so it stays sharp at any zoom.

What does the free month include?

One full month of the exact planner you configured: the same layout, modules, ruling and colours as the full version, delivered as a PDF to your inbox. Downloads for full planners are available soon.

What if I make a mistake in the Builder?

The preview is the planner: the pages you approve are rendered by the same code that makes your PDF. Change anything and the free month you request next reflects it.

Can I start the year in July?

Yes. Your planner starts on the month you choose, any month of any year, and runs for as long as you set it. A July to June year is as correct here as January to December.

How do I get my layout back without an account?

Your layout lives in a link you keep. No account, no login, no password. Open the link and the Builder loads your exact planner, ready to use again unchanged or to change what the year taught you.

No one’s idea of a week but yours.
