The marketing seems a bit ... unpalatable
silexia•2mo ago
I like it! A tool that potentially could break the largest addiction epidemic in the history of mankind, smartphones.
niemandhier•2mo ago
I would use it if I could host the backend myself, but like this it’s essentially spyware.
gnarlouse•2mo ago
Yes fucking exactly people want the option to BTOB especially with personal compute stuff like this. Like I’d pay money to own a license just let me do my private solution
niemandhier•2mo ago
Actually that is a good idea:

Offer the service fully managed and also offer a local hostable version with a license.

I am doing lots of MLOPS and llmops at the moment: getting updated for those models is vital.

gnarlouse•2mo ago
Working on a similar product, more oriented towards time-boxing your entire life against constraints with the ability to reschedule on the fly.
phi-go•2mo ago
Do you know SkedPal?
Madmallard•2mo ago
spyware please don't download this as is

there's no value proposition that is even feasible and in any way convincingly safe here if it's not open source and locally hosted

growt•2mo ago
For something less dystopian take a look at pushscroll. It’s an app that tracks you visually doing push ups (or squats or planks) and gives you minutes of unblocking time for each repetition.
ahofmann•2mo ago
Pushscroll looks nice, thanks for the tip!
spense•2mo ago
this looks awesome. a personal ai dom.

but i don’t trust you, so i’ll need your privacy policy before signing up. it 404s right now

Why do I want a piece of software monitoring me intentionally? It already happens against my will. It's already bad enough that Apple/Google monitors my sleep alarms. I've removed most of those.

Add ad tracking etc so what is this adding to the value of my life? You hope to get bought in a few years because you have a dataset (they) already have?

Eddy_Viscosity2•2mo ago
Getting people to pay to be monitored and take their data feels like a bit of a fever dream for the current tech elite. Imagine getting all that juicy data, not just for free, but with its own recurring revenue! Think of the stock price!

Coming soon, paying your company for the privilege of doing your job.
