General
What Leakeo is, what it remembers, and who it's for.
What is Leakeo?
Leakeo is a personal calendar that remembers every date that matters — birthdays, anniversaries, deadlines, renewals and plans — and reminds you in good time. You add a date once and Leakeo works out the right day for every future year, so you never have to hold it in your head again.
How is Leakeo different from my phone's calendar?
A calendar shows you a grid and waits for you to fill it in. Leakeo does the remembering — recurring dates that move (Easter, Mothering Sunday, the 2nd Sunday of May) are worked out for every future year, countdowns and streaks stay live on their own, and reminders reach you even when the app is closed.
Who is Leakeo for?
Anyone who has ever forgotten a birthday, missed a renewal, or scrambled the night before a deadline. Parents, couples, freelancers, students, busy founders — if a date matters to you, Leakeo keeps it safe.
What kinds of things can Leakeo track?
Birthdays and anniversaries, one-off events and appointments, deadlines with countdowns, repeating tasks, dateless reminders, time blocks, and even shift or work rotations that fill your calendar automatically.
What if I only have a few dates?
That is fine — Leakeo is just as useful for a handful of birthdays as it is for a year packed with deadlines. Add what matters and it quietly keeps watch, nudging you in good time.
Getting started
How to get set up in Leakeo.
How long does it take to get started?
Under a minute. Type a date naturally — "Mum's birthday 3 May" or "Dentist Friday 3pm" — and the form fills itself, or pick from the holiday library and the right recurring rule comes with it.
Do I have to enter everything by hand?
No. Type it in plain English and Leakeo works out the date, time and recurrence for you. For holidays and common dates, one tap from the library adds them with the correct rule for every year.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. Leakeo works in any browser and installs to your home screen as an app, so it opens full-screen and can send reminders like a native app.
Will reminders reach me even when the app is closed?
Yes. Turn on notifications and Leakeo will nudge you in good time — days before, or the morning of — even when the app is not open.
Dates & reminders
How recurring dates, countdowns and reminders work.
How does Leakeo handle dates that move each year?
It computes them. Easter, Mothering Sunday, bank holidays, the 2nd Sunday of May — Leakeo works out the correct day for every future year, for your country, so a date you add once is always right.
When will I be reminded?
You choose the lead time — a week before, the day before, the morning of, or a custom time. Each date can have its own reminder, and you can set a default so new dates pick it up automatically.
Can I sync my dates to my normal calendar?
Yes. Subscribe to a live feed and every Leakeo date shows up in Apple, Google or Outlook — always current, updating on its own.
Features
The month view, schedule, planner and more.
What can I see day to day?
A month calendar with your dates dotted on it, a Today's agenda and a timed hour-by-hour Schedule, a Timeline of everything coming up, Progress on your deadlines, and reminders that hang around until you deal with them.
Can Leakeo plan my week for me?
With the AI assistant, yes — tell it what you need to get done and it lays out time blocks around what is already on. Or add time blocks and work patterns yourself.
What is a work pattern?
A shift rotation — say 4 on / 4 off — that you set once and Leakeo fills your calendar with every shift going forward, at the hours you work.
Privacy & Security
How your data is handled and protected.
Who can see my dates?

Is my data secure?
Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored on secure cloud infrastructure, and access is protected by authentication.
