We all have times of the day when we feel most alert and focused, and times when we naturally slump. Matching your work to these rhythms is called energy-based scheduling.
Understanding Circadian Rhythms
Your circadian rhythm dictates your energy peaks and troughs. For most people, the highest cognitive function occurs in the late morning, making it the perfect time for deep work. The post-lunch dip is better suited for administrative tasks or light meetings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is energy-based scheduling?
Energy-based scheduling is a productivity approach that matches task difficulty to your natural energy levels throughout the day. It recognizes that you're not equally productive at all hours.
How does Trueday track my energy levels?
Trueday uses AI to analyze patterns in your behavior, including when you complete tasks, your calendar patterns, and other signals to estimate your energy levels throughout the day.
Can energy-based scheduling help with burnout?
Yes! By scheduling demanding tasks during peak energy hours and lighter tasks during low-energy periods, you can reduce strain and prevent burnout over time.
Is there scientific research behind this approach?
Yes, research in chronobiology shows that cognitive performance varies throughout the day. Energy-based scheduling leverages these natural rhythms for better productivity.
