MULTIDISTRACTED
Signal triage

Every ping from every app, in one pile you can actually get to the bottom of.

Mail, calendar, reminders and your own captures land in a single feed. You give each one a yes, a not-yet, or a no — and then you go back to whatever you were actually doing.

Done

An example feed — one morning’s worth, with invented names. Not your data, and not a concept render: this is the layout the app actually uses.

About the two odd words

Jein

German fuses its words for yes and no into one — jein, the honest answer to most things, which is “yes and no.” It is the middle button here: not a snooze you will lose track of, a held decision that comes back when you said it should. The other two answers say plainly what they do. This one needed a word English does not have.

MultiDistracted

Nobody multitasks. What we call multitasking is rapid context switching with a cognitive toll attached. Being MultiDistracted is not a failure state — it is Monday morning, the world arriving from every direction at once. The tool does not pretend to end that. It schedules it.

What actually goes wrong

The thing you were doing is not the thing you are doing now.

Every interruption costs a context switch, and you did not choose most of them. The toll is real and it accumulates all day.

Nine apps, nine inboxes, nine ideas of what "unread" means.

Clearing a badge in one place tells you nothing about the other eight. There is no single pile, so there is no bottom of it.

You already read it. You just never decided anything.

The backlog is not unread mail. It is everything you looked at, understood, and left open because there was nowhere to put the decision.

How it works

1
Post

Everything lands in one chronological feed — mail, calendar, reminders, anything you capture from the share sheet. No algorithm decides the order. It is just what arrived.

2
Decide

Every item gets one of three answers. Task commits it, Jein holds it and brings it back when you said, No releases it. One pass, one decision each.

3
Act

A Task starts a lifecycle — it picks up a Land, a date, the people attached to it — until it is a real thing on your calendar or something you finish. Then it is done everywhere it lives.

Post. Decide. Act. Then back to it.

Still being built — openly

This is a real tool in active development, not a finished product with a waiting list. Here is what is genuinely rough right now, so nothing about it is a surprise:

First-run onboarding

There is no guided tour yet. You land in a working feed and figure it out. The real onboarding is being rebuilt from scratch and is deliberately switched off until it is good.

Artie, the intelligence layer

Artie reads your signals and suggests routing. It is early. It suggests; you still decide everything.

Connectors

Gmail, Microsoft 365, iCloud, CalDAV, IMAP and RSS sync today. Everything else is on the list and not built.

Why you can leave your life in it

Most apps are free because you are the product. This one is paid, which means the only person it has to work for is you.
