What it does
Task apps assume the hard part is remembering. For a lot of us the hard part is starting. OnTrack picks one task using your deadlines, your energy and the hours you focus best in, then guards that block with a timer. Big goals become trails: link everyday tasks and the trail moves while you do your day. Two things I have not seen elsewhere. A rest token that saves your streak on a day you did nothing. A letter each Monday that never compares you to last week. No account, works offline, $4 once.
Missions, a focus timer, and tools for when starting feels impossible. Built for ADHD brains. $4 once, no subscription, no account. Windows, Mac and web.
The AI coach is now free. Five messages a day, no key and no signup needed. What's new OnTrack picks one task, starts a clock, and guards that block. When starting is the hard part, it has tools for that too. There is nothing to sign up for, on any version. Not a tour, not a mockup, not a video, and not a countdown. The real app in a browser tab, free with a few limits, for as long as it is useful to you. Nothing to download. Link everyday tasks to a goal and the trail moves forward while you just do your day. Finished ones move to Summits and stay there. Pomodoro, custom, or open stopwatch. Sessions attach to the task they belong to, so the time counts toward something.

FlowTracks2025 · flow-tracks.com · ▲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…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
