## What is Zem?

zem is the to-do app for the days you can't.

the hardest part of any task is starting. so every task in zem gets a 2-minute button — tap it and just begin. finishing is optional. that's the whole pitch.

what's in the box:
- a quiet today list, no streaks shouting at you
- "split this task" — paste in the wall ("file taxes") and zem breaks it into the first three small steps you can actually start
- a mascot that grows as you complete tasks (and forgives missed days)
- a morning energy check-in that matches the day's tasks to where you're at
- soft notifications, capped at three a day
- iOS widget so today's next step is on your home screen
- end-of-day swipe — see what you got done in 30 seconds

things zem deliberately does NOT do:
- shame you for missing a day
- ship streak counters that reset on one bad week
- ask for your contacts, calendar, or location
- sell your data — we don't even collect task content

privacy:
- we never see what you write. tasks stay encrypted on your device and on our backend; we can't read them.
- the only third party that ever touches a task title is openrouter (which forwards it to the underlying model), and only when you tap "split" (with caching so the same title never goes twice).
- anonymous usage events are off by default in the EU. you choose.

free 7-day trial, then a small monthly or yearly subscription. cancel any
time from the App Store.
