I made this for myself. I have ADHD, and one long to-do list just freezes me. I can't tell what's actually on fire and what can wait, so I end up doing nothing. So I built the thing I needed, and figured some of you might need it too. Here's how it works. You write a task down before it leaves your head, then you put it in one of four buckets: - Do Now - Plan - Handle Soon - Later Four buckets. Not twenty lists, not folders inside folders. Just four places for a thing to go. What's in it: - Quick capture, so writing a task down isn't its own little chore - An Inbox for everything you haven't sorted yet - Recurring tasks: Daily, Weekdays, Weekly, or Monthly. You can also type a tag like @daily when you capture - A Completed list, so finished stuff goes somewhere instead of staring at you - Siri and App Shortcuts, if you'd rather just say it out loud - Home Screen widgets, so your matrix stays visible without opening anything - Five color themes, contrast-checked so both light and dark stay readable - Rename the four buckets to whatever your brain actually calls them - Private iCloud sync, so your tasks show up on your iPhone and iPad About your data: it lives on your device. You don't make an account, you don't sign in, and I don't run analytics or hand your stuff to anyone. The sync is your own iCloud, between your own Apple devices. It's free. No subscription, no ads. iPhone and iPad, iOS 18 and up. One honest note: this won't fix your brain, and I'd be lying if I said it would. It's just a small, quiet place to put your tasks that didn't make me feel worse to use. I built it by myself, around how my own brain actually works. That was the whole goal.

InspirationDraft is a private place for unfinished thoughts. You do not need to think everything through before you save it. A sentence, a voice note, a rough direction, or a half-formed idea is enough. Capture the moment first. Recording inspiration should feel light, not like another task to complete. Light structure, after the thought arrives The app helps you return to important ideas later without forcing you into heavy organization the moment they appear. Titles, tags, scenes, color cues, and timeline structure exist to reduce friction, not create more of it. That matters if you care more about the content than the system around it. Organization should help the thought survive. It should not become extra work. AI as a quiet companion Sometimes you do not want AI to write for you. You just want help opening the next window. InspirationDraft uses local AI to extend, question, reframe, clarify, or gently move a draft forward when you need it. The result is meant to feel like a quiet companion, not an author standing in your place. It does not take over your writing, and the final voice stays yours. Fully local, so privacy feels real Many tools in this space promise smarter capture. InspirationDraft draws the line somewhere more personal: after you download the local model, AI processing runs on your iPhone. No cloud model needs to inspect your draft. No server needs to sit between you and your thinking. Even without a network connection, you can keep recording, organizing, and moving the work forward. That fully local boundary is not a bonus feature. It is what makes the whole experience feel safe enough to use honestly. One private space for real life Use InspirationDraft for writing, topic selection, work, life, cooking, product thinking, or the strange idea that arrived at the wrong time but still deserves to stay alive. Some thoughts become plans. Some become drafts. Some stay private for a while before they turn into anything else. The point is not to force them into shape too early. The point is to keep them, revisit them, and let them grow on your terms. That is the feeling InspirationDraft is trying to protect: your ideas can stay private, your process can stay light, and the work can still feel fully under your control. Who it is for - Writers, creators, researchers, and students - People with frequent ideas who dislike heavy note-management overhead - Anyone who wants AI help without surrendering authorship - Anyone who wants a more private, offline-first relationship with idea capture Launch pricing InspirationDraft launches as a paid upfront app. This version does not provide in-app purchases, subscriptions, or extra Pro unlocks. After downloading, you can use the included draft workspace, light organization tools, rewrite candidates, Local AI, and iCloud backup features. If the business model changes later, we will state it clearly on the App Store page and inside the app. Privacy & security - Local AI model runs entirely on-device after download - Draft data stored locally and in iCloud (visible only to you) - No analytics, no user tracking, no account required - You decide what context to share — AI only sees what you authorize Terms of Use (EULA): https://inspiration-draft.github.io/legal/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://inspiration-draft.github.io/legal/privacy.html
