THE POWER OF TIME-BLOCKING
In a recent study, timeboxing was named the most useful productivity “hack” and it is how Bill Gates and Elon Musk plan their busy days.
Simply put, it means assigning individual tasks into a calendar for specific durations of time.
And Shovel makes time-blocking EASY!
Benefits of Time-Blocking
-
Accountability: Same as with having a meeting in your schedule, when a task is on your calendar, you are making an obligation to yourself that you’ll work on it at that time.
-
Knowing what’s possible: Students who don’t plan their day often overestimate how much they can get done. Timeboxing will help you match tasks with time in your calendar.
-
Prioritizing: By time-blocking when they’ll work on each task, you’ll naturally need to prioritize what you’ll do first.
Sync your school system and calendars
Import your tasks from Canvas, Brightspace, and Moodle into Shovel where they are much more useful. When things change, Shovel updates automatically.
Among others, Shovel is helping students who have ADHD and bipolar disorder

You will always know what you have to do next, how long it will take, and if you can get it done. You’ll know that continuously, in real-time.
Shovel isn’t difficult. It can be used by anyone, but it requires commitment to changing your habits.
The result will be better grades, less stress, and more time to enjoy your college experience.

Our Why
we know the struggle
Our founder was a student-athlete who got overwhelmed
Petr got injured and the more time he spent trying to get healthy, the less time he had for school. Soon enough he had bad grades and declining mental health.
BUILT FOR STUDENTS
So he built the tool he wished he’d had as a student
There was no tool to help Petr manage his tasks, classes, and practices at the same time, so he decided to help the next generation of students by building it for them.
A TOOL THAT CALLS TO ACTION
Why the name Shovel?
Shovel is a tool for getting things done. Simple and effective.
Shovel is an action. It’s about doing hard work, some of which may not be pleasant.
Shovel is a beginning. It’s groundbreaking. Starting something new and finishing something big, one scoop at a time.
Dig out of that pile of homework!
