unforgotten-thread

Most productivity tools are built around finishing things. Unforgotten Thread is built around returning to them. If you've ever come back to a project after a few weeks and felt nothing — no context, no momentum, no memory of why you started — you already understand the problem this solves. It's not that you lost interest. It's that the thread snapped. You put something down, life happened, and when you came back the way back in was gone. Unforgotten Thread gives you that way back in. Before you step away from anything, you answer three questions: Why did you start this? What did you just do? What would you do first when you return? That's it. No elaborate system to maintain. No streaks to keep. No shame if months go by. When you're ready to pick something back up, past-you has left a map. It's built for the way creative and neurodivergent brains actually work — nonlinear, interest-driven, frequently interrupted. You're not supposed to work on one thing until it's done. You're supposed to have a dozen things alive at once, each waiting patiently for you to return. Unforgotten Thread makes sure they're still there when you do. Every thread holds the name of your project, the reason it matters to you, the last thing you did, your next step, and a full history log of every update you've made. You can mark things active, paused, or done. You can search across everything. You can pick up a thread you haven't touched in six months and be back inside it in thirty seconds. Nothing you started is truly abandoned. Some things just need a little time. Free tier: 10 threads — enough to get started and see if it changes how you work. Pro: Unlimited threads, full history on every project, $5/month or $45/year.
