About

PortfolioOS

Read full description

Your products do not all need attention at once. PortfolioOS gives technical founders and indie makers one private place to see what matters today, understand why, and start a realistic next move. ONE CLEAR, EXPLAINABLE PRIORITY PortfolioOS uses each product's stage, pulse, direction, next move, recent activity, and commitments to create one clear daily recommendation. See exactly why it comes first, what evidence was used, and which product follows. No black-box AI. FROM NEXT MOVE TO FOCUSED TIME Choose 15, 25, 45, or 60 minutes, enter a distraction-free focus session, then record what happened. PortfolioOS tells you when the time is up even if you left the app to do the work, and when you finish it asks what comes next, so tomorrow's recommendation is already waiting. The decision and its outcome stay attached to the product. START IN SECONDS A short introduction explains how PortfolioOS decides, and you can load a small sample portfolio to see a real recommendation before entering anything of your own. Remove the samples with one tap whenever you are ready. A CALM VIEW OF EVERY PRODUCT Group products by what they need: focused, waiting, blocked, missing a next move, or needing a decision. Open a product workspace for its current direction, tasks, decisions, timeline, costs, sources, links, and attachments. ON YOUR HOME AND LOCK SCREEN Add the PortfolioOS widget to keep today's product and its next move in view. On the Lock Screen the content stays deliberately hidden until you unlock, because your portfolio is not something a passer-by should read. IMPORT WITH CONTROL Start manually, or paste a link from where your product lives: its builder, host, repository, registry, or store. Preview and edit available metadata before anything is saved. Import is always user initiated. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No PortfolioOS account. No analytics, ads, telemetry, or background sync. Your database is encrypted on your device, with its key protected by iOS Keychain. A backup carries your whole portfolio and your attached files, and is deliberately readable rather than locked away — so the app tells you exactly what it contains and that it is unencrypted before it writes one. BUILT FOR ENGLISH AND ARABIC Use the complete interface in English or العربية, including right-to-left layout. PortfolioOS is a paid app with no recurring subscription.
