Reduct

Reduct doesn't ask you to plan. It asks you what you're avoiding β one sentence, typed without thinking about it β and turns it into something you can actually start. That one thing becomes your main task. It gets cut into 2-3 phases, and each phase into physical steps small enough that refusing one is embarrassing: not "work on the report," but "open a blank document and type the title." You see the whole plan on one map, with the exact step you're standing on marked. Terms of Use: https://legal.cronspark.com/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://legal.cronspark.com/privacy.html Did it? Move to the next step. Can't? Tap it and the step gets replaced with a smaller version of itself β the same thing, just less of it β until it's small enough to actually do. Never a different task. Never a lecture. Just less. Steps earn points, phases earn more, finishing the main task earns the most. Show up daily and a streak multiplies what you earn. A short survey up front β what you want, what stalls you, what actually gets you moving β decides how small the steps are cut and how blunt the wording gets. Several tasks can be open at once, each with its own map. No account to create, no ads, nothing shared without you choosing to. Free to start. A subscription unlocks unlimited breakdowns for when three isn't enough.
