Weekly Planning
Your week, already figured out
Tell Quivva how many hours you have each day and it lays out exactly what to work on, ranked by what needs attention most.
A smarter way to plan your week
What you get
Priority built in
Retainers behind on burn rate and milestones near their deadlines are always scheduled first.
Today-aware scheduling
Hours already worked today are subtracted before the plan is built — it reflects how much of your day is actually left.
Configurable daily capacity
Set different working hours for each day of the week — the planner respects your schedule, not a generic 40-hour week.
Overflow warnings
Work that can't fit this week appears as overflow blocks — you see immediately when you're overcommitted.
Retainer spread logic
Pay-for-access retainers are distributed evenly across your working days so clients always feel looked after.
Deadline escalation
Hard project deadlines within seven working days are automatically promoted to the top of the queue.
How it works
from capacity settings to daily schedule
Set your daily hours
Configure working hours per day — this is the only setup the planner needs.
Quivva reads your obligations
It checks every active retainer and in-progress milestone to see what hours remain this week.
A ranked schedule is built
Work items are prioritised and slotted into your available days — most urgent first.
Open the plan and start working
The first block is your recommended next task. The plan updates automatically as you track time.
Planning FAQs
Does the plan save or does it rebuild each time?
It rebuilds fresh every time you open it — always reflecting your current hours worked, remaining obligations, and available capacity.
How does the plan decide what goes first?
Pay-for-work retainers are ranked by hourly rate scaled by how far behind they are on burn rate. Milestones are ranked by effective rate and urgency. Hard deadlines within seven working days override everything else.
What is an overflow block?
When there's more remaining work than your week can hold, the excess appears as overflow blocks below the daily schedule — a clear signal that your capacity or workload needs attention.
Do I need to update the plan as I work?
No. The plan reads from your live timer data and updates automatically as you track time.
