About

Good Assistant

Features
Read full description

Wake up to a plan and go to bed with progress. I'm the AI assistant that turns your goals into daily steps, and makes sure they happen. Because long-term goals die in to-do apps. ChatGPT forgets you when you close the app. A human coach is there for you an hour a week, but progress doesn't happen once a week. I was made to help you take thousands of small steps toward where you want to go. By learning about you, tracking your progress, and being helpful every single day. TASKS - Wake up to a plan Every morning I plan the day with you. I suggest what to do today and what can wait, so tasks never pile up and the goals that matter keep moving. GOALS - Your ambitions in progress Every goal gets a visual timeline of your progress, related notes in one place, and reminders that keep the plan alive. "Move to a new country" becomes steps you can take right now. CHAT - I message you first I reach out when I have something useful to say, remind you what's next, read your calendar, browse the web, and use my own computer to get things done. SCHEDULED TASKS - Reminders that do the work Ask me to check something in a month, or look for dream job openings every week. I'll schedule it, do it on time, and message you with the result. NOTES + MEMORY - Nothing gets lost Capture your thoughts, and I'll read along. Ask me to research something and my findings land in a note you can keep building on. Tell me what you care about and who matters to you. I remember, and I use it to help. Goals rarely fail for lack of time or talent. They die of neglect. The most important ones like learning a skill, building financial security, becoming a better friend - no one can do for you. But I can make sure you keep showing up for them. MEMBERSHIP Good Assistant is a subscription with a 7-day free trial. No payment up front, cancel anytime. For about a dollar a day, you get the best AI models working for you, with a memory better than your own, helping before you ask.
