Remembering what to carry to class is harder than it sounds — especially when your timetable changes mid-semester and the group chat is no help. 1TimeTable keeps your schedule on your home screen, always up to date, without any back and forth. Build your timetable in a simple day-by-period grid. Assign colors to subjects, mark breaks, set your working days. Once it's set up, pin it to your home screen as a widget and your day is right there the moment you pick up your phone. The sharing part is just a 6-character code. Send it to your class, and anyone who subscribes will automatically get your updates — no group chats, no PDFs, no "wait which version is this?" Prefer a picture? Share your timetable as a ready-made image card — QR code and share code included — perfect for stories and group chats. Every timetable also has a live web page at 1timetable.app — classmates without the app can open the link and follow along right in the browser. If your timetable is public, it's also searchable by institution, department, and semester. Students can find and subscribe to the right one without needing the code at all.

Catalyst is a social accountability platform for people who are serious about their goals. No confetti. No badges for showing up. A system built on the one thing that actually changes behavior: consequences. HOW IT WORKS Set a goal that matters. Catalyst breaks it into daily tasks. Then you prove your execution every day with a Daily Reflection: what you did, what you didn't, and what happens tomorrow. Your reflections become your track record. THE CYCLE When you're ready to make it real, start a 30-day Cycle: - Commit a Participation Fee — from $50 to $500. It's non-refundable. - Submit a Daily Reflection every day for 30 days. You get two lives — miss two days and the Cycle fails. - Complete all 30 days and you earn every dollar back as a Completion Bonus. - Quit or fail, and the money is gone. The only way to see that money again is to earn it. That's the point. THE MASTERMIND Every Cycle places you in a mastermind group of up to 10 people at your commitment level, in it at the same time as you. They see your reflections. They notice when you go quiet. Accountability you can't mute. THE FEED No influencers. No motivational wallpaper. A feed of real people doing real work, one day at a time — and posting proof. WHO IT'S FOR People with money on the line behave differently. If you need a gentle nudge, this isn't your app. If you're done negotiating with yourself — welcome. SUBSCRIPTION Catalyst requires an auto-renewing subscription: $49.99/month or $14.99/week. Payment is charged to your account at confirmation of purchase.
