If any of this sounds familiar

You're not lazy. Your operating system just wasn't designed for this.

"I forget what I was going to do the moment I sit down."
"Every decision feels equally urgent."
"I can build a budget. I can't follow one."
"I start the day with intention. I end it with tabs."

Pick the one that hit hardest. We built a tool for it.

Layer 1 — the daily surface

One loop. Three steps. The thin layer you touch every day.

Capture, decide, do. This is the surface of the system — what you open in the morning. Underneath, two deeper layers (your values and your money) are quietly listening to every choice you make here.

  1. Close out

    Do Stuff

    Pomodoro that already knows what you queued. Press play.

    Add anything from your hierarchy to the next work block with one click. The timer logs each focus cycle for you.

The keystone

Before the numbers, a moment.
It's the bridge between halves.

The daily loop handles your time. The hierarchy holds your values. The waterfall moves your money. Most apps do one of those three. Energy Economics is the system that connects all three — and a two-minute practice is the hinge.

Two minutes. Five phases. It's how a thought you typed at 7:48am ends up as a $14 reroute in your savings envelope by Friday — without you re-deciding it three times in between.

Layer 1 · Time
The daily loop

Capture · Decide · Do — the surface you touch every day.

Layer 2 · Values
Your hierarchy

What's allowed to absorb resources first.

Layer 3 · Money
The waterfall

Where dollars actually land, in priority order.

The hinge — two minutes a day

Five phases. Slow is fine.

Touch each phase for a beat. Then the loop, the hierarchy, and the waterfall already know how to behave for the rest of your day.

The deeper layers

Below the daily loop sit your values and your money.

You don't open these every day. You set them up, and the daily loop quietly references them all week. Same system, deeper layers — this is the half of the OS most productivity tools don't have.

Three layers. One system. The reason a Monday thought becomes a Friday decision.

A Tuesday with Energy Economics

What it looks like when all three layers are running.

7:48am. Thought "cancel that subscription" while making coffee. Typed it into the popout. Closed the tab. Forgot about it on purpose. (Layer 1.)

12:10pm. Opened triage on lunch break. Gave it a category, a cost, and a value — which routed it to the right tier of the hierarchy. Three other inbox items got released because they didn't matter anymore. (Layer 1 → Layer 2.)

3:30pm. Hit a wall. Logged power level: 3. App suggested a 12-minute focus block instead of the usual 25. Took it.

6:00pm. Opened budget. The $14 from the cancelled subscription was already routed away from impulse spending and into the savings envelope. Done. (Layer 2 → Layer 3.)

No willpower required. The system did the remembering — across all three layers.

What you don't have to do

The shortest list of features is the list we left out.

Five things we deliberately don't ask of you.

Two dials run everything

Power — how much you've got today. Trust — how far ahead you can plan.

Everything else adapts to those two answers. No long drawn-out courses, no quarterly reviews, no micromanaging or overgrown task list. Two answers, every day.

Power · today

Today, this looks like:
25-min focus blocks

No judgment. The app just adapts.

Low trust → resources protect the foundation. High trust → resources flow toward growth. One slider. Your whole budget reshapes.

Direct answers

Common questions.

Is my data private?+

Yes. Stored on Lovable Cloud. Only you can see it. No analytics on your captures.

Will this work on bad ADHD days? Off meds? On burnout days?+

Yes. That's the whole design brief. Power level 3 changes what the app asks of you.

Do I have to use it every day?+

No. There is no streak. Open it when you have something to capture, sort, or do.

What if I capture 100 things and never triage?+

You can release the entire inbox in one click. There's a 10-second undo window on every release.

Is this a budgeting app?+

No. It's a decision practice that happens to include money. Time and energy get the same treatment.

What if I just want the pomodoro timer?+

Use it. Skip everything else. The features don't depend on each other.
