Six Things, Priority Tasks vs Suanpan

STOP DROWNING IN YOUR TO-DO LIST You don't have a productivity problem. You have a clarity problem. Too many tasks, too many apps, too many choices — your brain freezes before you even start. Sixthings fixes this with one constraint: 6 priorities a day. No more. When you can only pick 6, you're forced to decide what actually matters. That decision — repeated daily — changes everything. BUILT FOR OVERWHELMED BRAINS If you've tried every planner, every system, every app — and still feel behind — Sixthings is different. It doesn't give you more tools. It takes them away. - Only 6 tasks. Ever. The limit is the point. - Priority #1 stays locked at the top. Do it first. - Evening planning: choose tomorrow's 6 tonight. Wake up clear. - Incomplete tasks roll over automatically — no guilt, no lost work. MEET IVY — YOUR PATTERN MIRROR After a few days, Ivy starts showing you what you actually do vs. what you say matters. "You've put 'exercise' on your list 12 times. You've completed it once. It's always #5 or #6. What's really going on?" Ivy isn't a chatbot. Ivy is a mirror. It shows you the gap between your intentions and your actions — the gap most people never see. WHY THIS WORKS FOR ADHD & OVERWHELM → Decision paralysis? You only get 6 slots. Choosing is fast. → Task initiation? #1 is highlighted. Start there. Just that one. → Losing track? Patterns show you exactly where your energy goes. → Guilt spirals? Rollover is automatic. Tomorrow is a fresh start. CORE FEATURES • 6-task daily limit — the constraint IS the product • Drag-to-reorder priorities • Streak tracking (consecutive days completing #1) • Ivy tab — your patterns, insights, and honest reflections • Weekly report with AI-powered analysis • Custom Vibes to tag focus areas • Evening planning mode (6 PM+) • iCloud sync across devices • Beautiful dark design — no visual clutter SIXTHINGS FOCUS (PREMIUM) • Daily Ivy insights (vs weekly for free) • Deeper pattern breakdowns • Morning reminder to start with #1 • Support independent development Sixthings won't do the work for you.

Tired of productivity systems that fall apart when life gets chaotic? Suanpan uses a simple visual approach inspired by the ancient abacus. THE PROBLEM >> Every task feels urgent. Every priority system fails when real life happens. You spend more time organizing tasks than completing them. THE SOLUTION>> Three columns: Work, Family, Self. Position tasks top to bottom by importance. Work your way down each column. No priority labels, no decision fatigue—just visual clarity when everything feels urgent. HOW IT WORKS - Create three life areas that actually matter to you - Position tasks by dragging them up or down within each column - Work from top to bottom, left to right - Reposition tasks when priorities shift (and they will) WHY IT WORKS - Visual: See what matters most at a glance - Flexible: Drag and drop to reorder instantly - Contextual: Work tasks compete with work tasks, not family emergencies - Simple: No complex rules to remember when you're overwhelmed PERFECT FOR - Founders juggling multiple priorities - Parents managing work-life chaos - Anyone who's tried every productivity system and failed - People who think better visually than with abstract priority levels THE INSPIRATION Spotted my daughter's abacus during another overwhelming late-night task session. What if tasks worked like beads? Position matters more than labels. Same task, different position, different value. Suanpan combines todo simplicity with Eisenhower prioritization, presented as an abacus. The result? Task management so intuitive, your kid could organize your life.
