Where Sunsama is stronger
Sunsama is calm and deliberate. Each morning it walks you through what to do today, and each evening through a shutdown ritual. It pulls tasks from the tools a knowledge worker already uses, and its assistant, Sunny, can plan the day by chat or voice. It runs on almost every platform.
Where Lifey is different
Lifey plans the whole day, not only the work part: dinner with friends, the kids' activities and the gym sit next to your meetings. It tracks workouts and spending too, and every change it suggests waits for your yes.
If you plan in Hebrew: Sunsama's settings describe an RTL mode for the mobile app that is experimental and may not fully work. Lifey is built in Hebrew and English from the start.
Who should pick Sunsama instead
Pick Sunsama if you are a knowledge worker who wants a guided daily planning and shutdown ritual that pulls tasks from your work tools, and you are happy to pay for it without a free tier.
