One calm room you run your work from.
Projects, time, mileage, tickets and calls — in one place, with everything you're not using switched off.
You're in the queue — first come, first served. I'll email you an invite when your turn comes up, and that's the only email you'll get. No marketing, ever.
Nine things on screen at once is more than my head can hold. So it puts away what today doesn't need.
Name a mode, say what belongs on screen in it, and the room quiets down — without switching a single thing off. Your mileage still records; you're just not looking at it.
Fourteen instruments. All included. Off until you want them.
Three of them do most of the work.
Projects
The base of the room. Always on, shared with anyone you work with.
Mileage & time
Two odometer readings and a quiet timer — the money and the hours you'd otherwise lose.
And the rare answer of yes, I can do that.
One person on the other end of the email, and I write the code. Ask on a Tuesday, it can ship that week.
Switch on what you need
Instruments are included and off by default. One screen, plain words, reversible any time.
Use your own words
Your fields, your statuses, your labels. If you call them students, it says students.
Then ask for the rest
When your work does something no product anticipated, get in touch. Because it was built to be shaped, the answer can actually be yes.
How asking works ▸Everything standard, no cap on your own work. Nothing held hostage in a higher tier.
Request a beta invite Team, calls, and shaping ▸Who is “I”?
Aaron Aiken, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I built this for my own day job and my side projects, and I run it myself. There is no support team; there's me, and I answer.
What if you stop?
Your data exports whole, any time, in formats you can actually open. It's your work; you keep it, running or not.
Is there AI in this?
Only if you bring your own key, and then it talks to your provider, not to me. I never hold the key and never read your work.
Do I have to use all of it?
No. Everything but Projects is off until you switch it on, per workspace and per project. Hiding one never stops it recording.
You are not like everyone else. Neither is how you work.
Most software makes you bend to it. This one molds to your hand — projects, mileage, tickets, time, calls and capture, gathered into one calm room you run your studio from.
I built this for my own day job and the pile of projects I run on the side — one instrument at a time, Projects first, then each piece as I needed it. It was born fitted to real work, which is why it can fit yours.
Your workspace
all included, off until you need themYou've turned on Today, Mileage and Tickets. The rest waits quietly until it's useful.
You're in the queue — first come, first served. I'll email you an invite when your turn comes up, and that's the only email you'll get. No marketing, ever.
Complete on day one. Not a starter kit.
Every piece below is in the base price. New modules keep arriving — some standard, some paid add-ons.
Projects
The base of the room. Always on, shared with anyone you work with.
Today
The short list: what matters today, pulled out of everything else.
Mileage
Everyone logs their own trips. You see the whole team's totals.
Tickets
Requests in, work out, numbered so nothing slips.
Time & reports
A quiet timer, and the month totaled — for the accountant, or just because you're curious.
The Logbook
Markdown, pinnable, searchable — and any line becomes a task, a ticket or a document, with the thread home kept both ways.
The Cockpit itself
The room you open first: your day, your work, and the tools you already use one click away.
Spotify
The room should sound like yours too. Whatever you're playing, playing right here.
Team members
Add whoever helps you. They work the shared projects and log their own miles and time.
And the set keeps growing. I build things for my own work first; when one earns its keep, it lands here — either free as part of the standard set, or as a paid add-on if it costs real money to run.
What's coming ›A strong standard, and the rare answer of yes, I can do that.
Every other tool asks a studio like yours to work the way it was built. This one has room in it for the way you already work — and one person on the other end of the email who can shape it.
1Switch on what you need
Instruments are included and off by default. One friendly screen, plain words, reversible any time.
2Use your own words
Your fields, your statuses, your labels. If you call them students, it says students. If you call them clients, it says clients.
3Then ask me for the rest
When your work does something no product anticipated, get in touch. Because it was built to be shaped, the answer can actually be yes — and it lives in the product you keep getting updates to, not a private copy that rots. How asking works →
I've run projects, people and change management in corporate IT since 2007, and I still do it every day — so none of this is a guess about how work actually behaves. I built the first version on my own hardware and spent three years sanding it down, because I run that day job, a handful of side businesses and my own projects out of one screen — and my ADHD brain shorts out when there are nine things in front of me. It's mine first, which is why nothing in here scores you or nags you.
Then someone asked how they could get their own — and that's the whole reason this is a product. Whoever answers your email writes the code: ask on a Tuesday and it can ship that week. No committee, and no roadmap where requests go to die.
Video calls for your whole workspace — and for your guests.
Clients, students, family, a contractor for as long as it takes: a room with a link, nothing to download for the person joining, no meeting timer counting down. Notes from the call land in your notebook when you hang up.
If you run the whole thing yourself, this was built in your shoes.
The coach or educator
Students and their families, sessions to run, a spouse who helps on the admin. Calls, notes and miles in one place.
The solo consultant
Projects per client, hours that must be defensible, mileage that has to be logged before you forget it.
The maker with a practice
Studio work, a couple of helpers, and a strong opinion about how it should be organized. Bring the opinion.
Priced like one person made it. Because one person did.
No tiers with features held hostage. Everything standard is in the base price, and the Instruments are priced on their own.
Projects, time, mileage, tickets, notes, reports, invoices. No cap on any of it, and your clients and students never cost a cent.
Working with other people? $9 each, added and removed whenever.
Video calls in the app, with your people as guests.
Your customers file their own requests, and you quote the ones that cost money.
More Instruments are coming, and none of them will ever switch themselves on. Add one the month you need it; drop it the month you don't.
Price it out ›It molds to your week, too.
Nine instruments on a Tuesday morning is right. Nine instruments at nine on a Saturday is noise. Name a mode, say what belongs on screen in it, and the Cockpit quiets down on its own — without switching a single thing off. Your mileage still records; you're just not looking at it.
I built it because nine panels at once is more than my head can hold. If your attention works like mine, this is the feature you'll notice first.
Who is “I”?

What if you stop?
Your data exports whole, any time, in formats you can actually open. It's your work; you keep it, running or not.
Do I need the notebook?
No, but it's right there when you want it. The Logbook is built in — a home for the spur-of-the-moment idea and the meeting note, and any line can become a task, a ticket, or a document. Skip it and nothing else changes.
Is there AI in this?
Only if you bring your own key, and then it talks to your provider, not to me. I never hold the key and never read your work.
