General
What is Get Gone?
Get Gone is a PTO optimization app that helps you maximize your time off. It analyzes holidays, weekends, and your personal constraints to show you exactly when to take PTO for the most days away from work.
How does it work?
Enter your country, year, PTO days, and work schedule. Add any constraints like company shutdowns or planned trips. Tap "Optimize" and Get Gone calculates the best times to take off, showing you a "multiplier" for each block of time.
What's a multiplier?
The multiplier shows how efficient a block of time off is. A 3.0x multiplier means you get 3 days off for every 1 PTO day used. Higher is better.
Is Get Gone free?
Yes! You can use Get Gone for free to run optimizations and see your total potential days off. Get Gone Pro ($2.99 one-time) unlocks the full plan with all dates, calendar export, sharing, and yearly rollover.
