Stop reading about it. Start living it. Actium turns the self-improvement books you already know into small real-world tasks for today, built around your life. Do one, write a line, and an AI mentor writes back. Every new account gets 15 days of full access. No card, no sign-up form. Not summaries, never "read chapter 4": each task is a small action in your own day, with one line on why it matters. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a book. Search by title or author, or start from books picked for your goals, from habits and Stoic philosophy to career and relationships. 2. Answer a few questions about your life, written for that book, your goals and your age. Tasks don't assume kids, a partner or a job unless your answers say so. 3. Get your plan. AI writes chapters from the book, in the author's order, with two or three small tasks each. The first chapter can be done in one sitting. 4. Do today's tasks, then seal the day with an optional note. Tomorrow's tasks stay hidden until the next morning, which reads your note back. Start with a book you already know, like The 48 Laws of Power, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Atomic Habits, The Miracle Morning or Think and Grow Rich. Actium is not affiliated with these books' authors or publishers. WRITE IT DOWN. THEN DO IT. Every task is REFLECT (think it through, then write it down) or DO (do it in your day). A Do task comes with a short checklist, written from your note on the task before it when there is one. AN AI MENTOR WHO WRITES BACK Save a note and your AI mentor replies, in the manner of a figure from history or myth. Say something back to chat. It also leaves you a question when you seal the day. Your first AI mentor is picked from your goals: in the manner of Heracles, Spartacus, Jane Austen or Ada Lovelace. More unlock as your stats grow, up to Sages in the manner of Marcus Aurelius after months. Mentors are AI characters made by Actium: an interpretation, not the person, and not an endorsement. They give no medical, legal or financial advice, and AI replies can be turned off in Settings. DAILY DISCIPLINE YOU CAN SEE Tasks, practices and notes earn points in four stats of personal growth: Body, Mind, Soul and Spirit, the stat for discipline, willpower and resilience. Every 25 points in a stat is a level. Your streak has named nights, The Spark (day 3), The Flame (day 7) and The Blaze (day 14), and one missed day can be rescued every 30 days. KEEP WHAT WORKS - Manifest: keep up to five Do tasks as daily practices, each with its why and a journal. - Journal: your task notes by book and chapter, beside your AI mentor's replies. - Widgets: complete today's task from your Home Screen or StandBy. - Reminders: at the time you pick, quoting your own words or your AI mentor's question. FREE, AND WHAT PRO ADDS After your 15 days you keep a free plan, not a bill. Free for good: every task in any chapter you open, one chapter a day, streaks, Journal, Manifest, widgets, reminders, AI mentor replies to your notes, and new AI mentors. AI mentor chat: 3 messages on a day you complete a task. Actium Pro adds unlimited books, a second chapter on up to three days a week and 50 AI mentor messages a day. No ads. Sign in with Apple or Google any time to keep your progress. Pick a book you know. Do one small thing from it today. SUBSCRIPTION Actium Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, yearly or monthly.
