Hi HN! I've been building Dayflow, a macOS app that automatically tracks what you're actually working on (not just which apps you have open). Here's what it does: - It creates a semantic timeline of your day; - It does it by understanding the content on your screen (with local or cloud VLMs); - This allows you to see exactly where your time went without any manual logging. Traditional time trackers tell you "3 hours in Chrome" which is not very helpful. Dayflow actually understands if you're reading documentation, debugging code, or scrolling HN. Instead of "Chrome: 3 hours", you get…

FlowTracks▲17Hi HN, I made FlowTracks – a time tracker that shows how consistent you really are. I’ve tried a bunch of productivity tools: Pomodoro timers, TODO apps, time logs. They helped me focus or stay organized short-term — but none of them gave me a clear picture of how consistent I was over time. I wanted to know: - Which days I drift off - Whether I was improving week over week - When exactly my focus dropped during the day So I built FlowTracks. Originally it was just a tool for myself. But after using it daily for a few months, I realized it might help others too — so I put up a landing page…
