Onward

Prosthetic Executive Function

You show up and do what you do best. Onward keeps track of the rest.

Tell Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini about your goals — from remembering the kitty litter to starting a business — and Onward handles the where, when, and how.

What you get

Persistent task state, a behavioral wiki, and the right work surfaced at the right time.

FOCUS

Now Feed

A deterministic ranked view of what to do next — by priority, urgency, and where you are. No guessing, no LLM reshuffling.

PLAN

Schedule

Tasks with due dates and time blocks laid out by day. See what's owed and when you plan to do it, in one view.

LEARN

Wiki

A behavioral wiki of insights Onward builds over time — how you work, what stalls you — so the help gets sharper the more you use it.
