Apologies if this is uncouth, but if anyone wants the opposite of this product, check out Pixelist on the App Store: it’s a 100% free and private, extremely minimalist habit tracker. I’m terrible at marketing (my Show HN had zero response) but it’s had a growing organic user base that seems to love it.

No Android version?

My issue is that with productivity theres a big factor of "good data in good data out". If a system is too overdesigned it often gets underutilized. I used to have complicated setups for my "productivity" but honestly I've paired it down to one google sheets time tracker with a few fancy features like time predicting on projects but not much.. and google calendar. It wasn't until I reduced my tools that my productivity increases.

I worry that overanalyzing productivity will innevitably lead people to forget the 1 rule of "do less".

Not yet :( But maybe with GPT4!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This surprised me too, and not in a good way. I got that scary old feeling from the early-2000s when a surprise exe appeared.

Yeah, it loads a download windows button too but links to the same sketchy dropbox download link. I'd be wary of installing random apps nowadays with crypto hacks and what not. I guess I need to think twice before doing so.

Thanks for letting us know about the download issue – we've fixed the problem and you can now download the Mac version without any problems. If you have any further issues, please let us know. Thanks for your support!

This looks neat, but there’s no world in which I start using this product without knowing the price. Too much of a commitment to add this to my routine to find out you’re charging $50/mo and require an annual plan or something.

Thanks for checking out our app! We recently updated our subscription pricing page to provide more transparency around our pricing model. We're currently considering a plan starting at $5/month, but we want to hear from you – what price point would be fair for the value you're getting? We're open to feedback and committed to providing affordable options for all users. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I love the concept! Modern interrupt-driven workflows are horrible if you want to get real work done, designing for focus time is a great idea. How is it with privacy, PII, and sensitive data? Is all processing done locally, or is data uploaded into the cloud?

quite honestly HN is the last place you want to do market research on pricing. the income distribution is skewed extremely low and extremely high and attitudes on paying for anything do not reflect market reality, largely due to ideological dispositions.

Interesting. Is this basically a browser that's focused on productivity? Seems like it's just adding different sites as "apps" that I can switch between?

Hey dhruvarora013, thanks for your question! Floutwork does indeed have an in-app browser that makes switching between apps and managing tabs a breeze, but it's much more than that. Floutwork is an all-in-one productivity system that brings together all your work essentials into one platform. Our powerful built-in Tasks app helps you track your goals and tasks, while our built-in apps for Notes and Emails streamline your workflow. Our command bar keeps you focused by helping you stay on track with your work, without losing context. Our built-in productivity tracker monitors and improves your productivity habits, while our gamified system helps you stay motivated by completing 3 productivity goals (like the rings in Apple Watch) every day. It has a lot more functionality that you can checkout from floutwork.com that really upgrades your productivity game. We'd love for you to give Floutwork a try and let us know what you think!
