## What is Loops?

I think a lot. You probably do too. Loops is a notebook to help you think.

It won't answer, remind you, or connect things. It holds your reasoning until you come back.

Writing something feels like learning it. The friction is the point.

THE COLD OPEN

Come back to a Loop you've left alone for a week or more and the composer is withheld. You get the day count, the last thing you wrote, and your open prediction with three answers: it held, it didn't, still open. Only then do you get to write.

CARRY ONE WITH YOU

Put a question in your pocket and it moves to your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island for as long as you're chewing on it. When the answer turns up on a walk or in the shower, tap it and you're writing before the thought is gone.

THINGS DIE

Every Loop shows how cold it is and fades as it goes. Untouched for sixty days and it archives itself. If it mattered, open it again.

YOUR REASONING CAN LEAVE

Copy any loop out as Markdown — the question, why it mattered, the whole trail, every prediction and how it turned out. Straight into any notes app, or as a file.

WHAT IT DELIBERATELY WON'T DO

No AI. No suggested connections. No daily review. No streaks. No notifications. No account, no sync, no analytics. Totally FREE.
