01 / SEE WHERE IT IS STUCK

The whole plan.
And the place that holds it back. ​

Not a task list but a picture that makes it obvious what depends on what. From the big goal down to the step that is stuck.

02 / BOTTLENECK

This is where the plan got stuck.

“Interior renovation” is overdue. The app highlights it as the bottleneck — it is blocking the three steps below it.

Overdue by 3 days · blocking 3 downstream steps.

02 / FROM PLAN TO MOTION

Less chasing.
More finishing. ​

All features
01
Your goal
Done step Stuck here

A tree of goals,
not a flat list. ​

The goal on top, the steps below it, their steps below them. A node can wait for its whole subtree, so you see what really blocks the deadline — and what is just noise.

02

Routine runs.
You move on. ​

Rules react to a status change or a deadline. They hand over a goal, create sub-goals or start an agent. Recurring steps take care of themselves.

03
Your maps.
Your data.

Data
stays with you. ​

Either literally on your own server, or on machines in Germany. Download all of it any time. The code is available under a fair-code license.

03 / WORK FOR PEOPLE AND AGENTS

You hold the direction.
AI adds the power. ​

A REST API and an MCP server mean Claude Desktop or Claude Code can read and edit your maps. The agent writes its status back into the node — you only decide.

AI is optional. It is off by default.

Just for yourself

My day: a plan, not a list of regrets.
