We're making ReadyTools Workspace smarter, more personal, and easier to use. This update introduces Today, a new way to focus on what matters, alongside personal Block Templates, performance improvements, and additional refinements across Workspace.
Our goal has always been to give you the freedom to build a workspace that works for you.
With this release, we're taking that idea even further.
Your Workspace might contain dozens of pages, projects, boards, and tasks. But sometimes, all you really need to know is one thing:
What do I need to get done today?
That's where Today comes in.
The new /today block brings a focused overview of your daily work directly into Workspace.
Instead of manually opening different pages and checking everything individually, Today helps bring your relevant tasks and daily priorities into one place.
It's designed to make your Workspace feel less like a collection of information and more like a place where you can actually get things done.
Getting started is easy.
Open a Workspace page, type /today, and add the Today block wherever you want.
You can place it on your main dashboard, inside a personal planning page, or alongside other Workspace blocks.
The idea is simple: create a dedicated space for the things that need your attention today.
Whether you're managing personal tasks, studying, or working on multiple projects, Today helps you focus on your immediate priorities without unnecessary distractions.
The Today experience isn't limited to Workspace pages.
We've also brought Today into the Tasks page, making it easier to access your daily priorities from a dedicated task-management area.
This means you can choose how you want to work.
Prefer a personalized Workspace dashboard? Add the Today block.
Prefer opening your Tasks page directly? Today is available there too.
Both experiences are designed around the same goal: helping you understand what needs attention and making it easier to move forward.
One of the most useful parts of ReadyTools Workspace has always been its block-based system.
You can combine different types of content, build custom layouts, and organize pages around your own needs.
Until now, Workspace already offered predefined templates to help you get started.
But what if you wanted to save something you created yourself?
Now you can.
With the new Save as Template feature, you can turn your own blocks into reusable templates.
Imagine spending time configuring a block exactly how you like it.
Maybe it's a planning structure, a project checklist, a frequently used content layout, or a block with settings you've carefully customized.
Instead of recreating that setup every time, you can save it as a personal template.
Here's how it works:
Select a block you've already created.
Open Block Settings.
Choose Save as Template.
Give your template a name and description.
Save it for future use.
That's it.
Your reusable template is ready.
When you need that block again, open the template selection interface and choose your saved template.
Click Insert, and Workspace will create a block using your saved template.
This makes it easier to maintain consistency across your pages while reducing repetitive setup.
You no longer have to remember every setting or rebuild the same structure again and again.
Personal Templates are especially useful for people who work with recurring structures.
For example:
Students: Reuse study notes, planning blocks, and organizational layouts.
Developers: Keep frequently used project structures ready to insert.
Content creators: Build reusable planning and production workflows.
Teams: Create consistent block structures for repeated activities.
Personal productivity: Save your favorite layouts and use them whenever needed.
The important part isn't the type of work you're doing.
It's that you get to decide what a useful template looks like.
Your blocks. Your templates. Your workflow.
As Workspace continues to grow, we're putting more effort into making its different features feel connected.
You shouldn't have to learn an entirely new interface every time we introduce something.
That's why we're continuing to build on familiar Workspace interactions and existing components.
From organizing information to managing tasks and reusing your own templates, we want the entire experience to feel consistent.
Every improvement brings us closer to a Workspace where different tools complement each other rather than compete for your attention.
This release also includes additional improvements behind the scenes.
We've continued refining Workspace performance, improving parts of the experience, and strengthening the platform's overall reliability and security.
Not every improvement needs a new button or a visible setting.
Sometimes the most important updates are the ones that make your everyday experience smoother, more dependable, and more comfortable.
We're continuing to invest in those improvements as Workspace grows.
The new Today block and Personal Templates solve two different problems, but they share the same purpose.
Today helps you decide what to focus on.
Personal Templates help you spend less time preparing to work.
Together, they make Workspace a more practical environment for everyday productivity.
You can start your day with a clearer view of your priorities, reuse structures you've already created, and spend more of your time on the work that matters.
And because these features are built into ReadyTools Workspace, they fit naturally into the pages and workflows you're already using.
ReadyTools Workspace is constantly evolving.
We're building toward an environment where your notes, tasks, databases, boards, templates, and AI-powered tools work together as parts of one connected system.
Every release is another step in that direction.
And as always, our focus remains on building useful features, improving performance, and making the experience better without adding unnecessary complexity.
Today and Personal Block Templates are now part of ReadyTools Workspace.
Open Workspace, try /today, or select one of your favorite blocks and choose Save as Template.
Build your space. Save your ideas. Focus on what matters.
Made for the way you work. Powered by ReadyTools.
