A new, mind-liberating productivity app

"Yes, but not for long!" will be an app for people who make too many promises, or promise things too far into the future. I am building a truly simple and mind-liberating thing:

Problem:

  • Someone (say, a customer or friend) asks you for a piece of your time.
  • You say "Yes, in three weeks".
  • After those three weeks, they have forgotten about it and you have to re-schedule.

Solution:

  • You write that promise into the app and give it an expiration date.
  • When that date is approaching, the app reminds your friend (and you) about the promise you made and asks them kindly to confirm or to cancel their ask.
  • You know exactly what will actually happen and have one thing less to worry about.

Side effect:

  • You can always have a list of all the promises you made.
  • Your old promises will automatically expire, freeing your mind.

How does that sound? If you're interested, please sign up for the pre-launch mailing list on the bottom of the landing page at https://yesbutnotforlong.com/

Thanks and keep on promising...
