A clean slate,
every morning.
You're running too many things at once. Slate reads everything on your plate, weighs it against what actually matters this week, and points you at the one thing to do now — not the forty things that exist. Clear it, and the next move is already waiting.
No new habit to maintain. Slate works out the move; you make it.
Build, don't read. You don't need a fourth tab open — you need the proposal sent before lunch. Everything else is noise until that's done.
A to-do list lists what exists. Slate hands you your next move.
Most tools are storage. They hold your tasks and hand the hard part — deciding what's worth your attention right now — back to you. Slate is the opposite. It's supplemental executive function: opinionated, direct, and built to remove the friction between "I have a lot going on" and "here's my next move."
The usual task app Storage
- Shows you everything, sorted by date or list.
- Goes stale because logging tasks is its own chore.
- Treats a quick errand and a career-defining deadline the same.
- Leaves the prioritizing — the actual work — to you.
Slate Direction
- Surfaces what to do right now, with a reason — then the next as you finish.
- Capture is frictionless — paste a brain dump, it sorts itself.
- Weighs every task against your live priority stack.
- Tells you what to skip, so you stop carrying decision fatigue.
Five pieces. One operating system for everything you're juggling.
Work, income, property, side projects, home, life — Slate organizes it into workspaces and runs the same loop across all of them: capture, weigh, decide.
Daily Brief
Each morning Slate reads your open tasks and priorities and writes a tight directive: what genuinely needs doing, each with a reason, a couple of maybes, and what to deliberately ignore. As you clear items, it keeps the next one in front of you.
Tasks
Everything in one filterable list, grouped by life area. Hit Prioritize and Slate re-ranks the whole stack against what matters this week — high, medium, low, done.
Projects & Notes
A home for meeting notes, plans, and brain dumps. Drop in raw text, hit Extract, and Slate pulls out concrete action items linked back to the project.
Quick Capture
Zero friction. Paste a messy list, a transcript, a stream of thought. Slate parses every item, routes it to the right area at the right priority, and you confirm with a tap.
Priority Check-in
A five-question Monday conversation, not a form. Slate asks what’s heavy, what’s shifting, what the one real win is — then resets the priority stack that drives the whole week.
Workspaces
Keep the day job, the rentals, the side apps, and home life in separate workspaces — each with its own color and priority stack — without losing the single daily view across all of them.
Three steps. Then it runs your morning.
Dump everything in
Paste your notes, your scattered lists, last week's loose ends. Slate sorts the chaos into tasks, areas, and projects — no manual tagging.
Set what matters
A short check-in establishes your priority stack — the ranked list of what's worth your time right now. It updates as your week shifts.
Open the brief
Every morning, Slate hands you a directive: what to do first, why it matters, and what to skip. Clear it and the next rises to the top. Close the tab. Go build.
