A calmer way to start

From frozen to started.

You don't have to plan your day. You don't even have to finish. Just start one tiny thing — right now.

How Inchworm works, in four steps: one, you dump the thing you're stuck on. Two, it shrinks the task to one absurdly small first step. Three, you start a five-minute session whose timer counts up. Four, starting is the win — your streak counts the days you showed up.

You’re stuck. Dump it — a sentence is plenty.
The loop

Four small moves, over and over.

Not a to-do list. Not a planner. Just the shortest path from stuck to started.

1

Stuck

Dump the thing you can't start — type it or say it. No pressure, no tidy lists.

2

Shrink

We break it down and hand you one tiny first step — small enough that it feels almost silly not to do.

3

Start

A calm five-minute timer that counts up, never down. You don't have to finish. You just have to begin.

4

Reward

Starting is the win. We celebrate the moment you begin — because that's the hard part.

01The reward

Someone sees you start.

Pick one person. The moment you begin, they get a warm ping that reads like a text from a friend — and they can cheer you on with a single tap. Private by default: you choose how much to share, there are no counts, and there's nothing to miss.

Designed for ADHD brains — and anyone who struggles to start.

Streaks pause, never break. No punishment, no guilt, no alarms — just a smaller first step.
