๐ช Inspiration We wanted to build something more than just productive โ we wanted to build personal.
LifeOS is inspired by the emotional ups and downs of daily life. In a world full of overwhelming apps, we dreamt of a soft, calm space where your moods, routines, and thoughts matter. A beautiful place that feels like your digital home.
๐ก What it does LifeOS is an emotion-aware personal operating system. It helps users: ๐ญ Track their mood with 5 emotions and personal notes โฐ Manage their daily routines and mark completed tasks ๐ธ Monitor budget with income/expense tracking and summaries ๐ง View insights about their mental and financial state ๐ฌ Talk to a cute, supportive floating AI assistant that checks in emotionally ๐ Toggle light/dark themes for comfort
๐ View past entries using the calendar (coming soon)
