Meet .nexusStack, a focused workspace for everything around a job, client, project or personal goal. Each one gets its own stack, with deliverables, checklists, notes, mind maps, repos and links, so nothing gets mixed up. STAY ON TOP OF THE WORK Track deliverables with due dates and reminders, and see what's overdue at a glance. Sort to-dos into Now, Next and Later, then clear them one at a time in Focus mode. CAPTURE EVERYTHING Write rich notes, and keep files, photos, scanned documents and links on the same board. Text recognition makes it all searchable, and any note or file can become tasks in a tap. THINK VISUALLY Map ideas on a fluid, zoomable canvas. Choose a layout, switch to an outline, send ideas to your task lists, present branch by branch, and export to PDF, PNG, Markdown or OPML. KNOW WHERE THINGS STAND Each stack shows its insights at a glance: completions, on-time rate, streaks and recent activity, plus details tailored to the stack type. KEEP CODE AND DOCS CLOSE Browse GitHub repos, branches and files from any stack, and sign in to see your private repos. Save Confluence links per stack. Repo Pro (optional in-app purchase) adds syntax highlighting, search, bookmarks, rendered Markdown, diffs and blame. MADE FOR EVERY SCREEN Designed for iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, with home screen and Lock Screen widgets and an optional Liquid Glass look. MAKE IT YOURS Use the clean default theme, or choose Midnight Neon, Aurora, Prism or Obsidian (optional in-app purchases). PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data stays on your device. No account required. BUILT FOR • Freelancers and contractors juggling multiple clients • Team leads coordinating deliverables across projects • Engineers, PMs and tech pros who want notes, tasks and repos side by side

A record of how you decide, more than a decision journal or decision tracker. Most decisions feel resolved the moment you make them. Reckon keeps the prediction, the confidence, and the reasoning. Over time you can see how your judgment holds up. CALIBRATION, FINALLY SOMETHING YOU CAN SEE Every decision in Reckon starts with what you think will happen and how sure you are. Over months, that turns into a record you can read: confidence over time, predicted vs. observed, the difference between the calls you make well and the ones you only think you do. INSIGHTS THAT LIVE IN THE LONG TERM After fifty decisions, the patterns appear. After a hundred, they're hard to ignore. Reckon surfaces them: where confidence overshoots outcomes, where it undershoots, which domains your judgment is sharp in, and which ones still need work. RESOLUTION, THEN A SECOND LOOK When a decision resolves, you log what happened, whether the call was correct, and how satisfied you are with it. Thirty to sixty days later, Reckon asks again: would you make this call again? The two answers are rarely the same. CHECK-INS FOR THE MIDDLE OF A DECISION Between making a call and finding out how it went, things change. Check-ins capture new information — tagged positive or negative — and update your confidence. The middle of a decision is where the information arrives, and Reckon keeps it in the record. RESOLVED DECISIONS, AT A GLANCE Browse the calls you've made. Filter by domain, by satisfaction, by whether your follow-up still agrees with you. The library you wish you'd been keeping for years. ONE LIST, BY REVIEW DATE Every open decision, organized by when you said you'd come back to it. No notifications competing for your attention. Only the calls awaiting your next look. A TIMELINE PER DECISION Each decision has its own confidence chart: check-ins as points, tagged shifts as annotations. Watch the moment your thinking changed, and what changed it. BREAKDOWNS BY DOMAIN Career, finances, health, personal. Each domain has its own calibration curve. See them separately, then compare. Reckon is iPhone and iPad, one-time purchase. Buy it once and it's on every device you sign in with. Your data syncs over iCloud. Nothing of yours sits on a server we run. No subscription. No account. Less journaling, more calibration.
