// THE WORKSPACE

One screen, three quiet columns.

Journail isn't a dashboard of widgets fighting for attention. It's one calm workspace: your rhythm on the left, your conversation in the center, your tasks and goals on the right.

LEFT · THE LOOP

Where you are in the day

A four-node loop shows the current phase, with the active step softly pulsing. Below it, your upcoming events; below that, recent highlights — the moments you were proud of in your latest journals.

CENTER · THE THREAD

The conversation

The middle column is a thread, not a form. The whole day plays out here — the morning brief, picking tasks, the plan, focus, and the evening close — with one primary action at a time and a composer at the bottom.

RIGHT · TASKS & GOALS

Your context, on hand

Active tasks first, with priority and label — whether they live in Journail, Todoist, or Google Calendar. Beneath them, your long-term goals, reading like prose rather than chips.

// A FULL DAY

How a day flows, from morning to entry.

It all happens in the center thread. In the morning you draft the plan together in a few minutes; through the day you work and chat; in the evening the day melts into a journal entry. Here's the whole process, step by step.

01MORNING · PLAN

Draft the plan in a short conversation.

Planning isn't filling in a form — it's a guided conversation where the assistant brings the context and you make the calls.

  1. 1The Daily Brief greets you with two questions: what really has to move today, and what's quietly weighing on you.
  2. 2First, you say what you've already done or what your main priority for today is.
  3. 3Then you select: the assistant offers tasks from your planner, plus suggestions from your goals and calendar — you pick what you'll do, add your own, and push the rest to tomorrow.
  4. 4From your picks it drafts a plan. Write a note to it, edit the plan, or confirm. Confirming sets today's plan and the day moves into Focus.

02DAYTIME · FOCUS

Through the day, you just work.

Once the plan is set, the workspace becomes your harbor for the whole day.

  1. 1Today's plan sits in front of you — check tasks off and watch progress tick up.
  2. 2Chat with the AI Assistant, add new tasks, or jot a quick note before it slips away.
  3. 3Every completion and note quietly threads into a record of the day. When you're ready, you press "Close the day".

03EVENING · ENTRY

The day melts into a journal.

At day's end you kick off the journal entry — a guided close in three steps.

  1. 1First, a task review: mark what's done, and on the open ones note what's still needed.
  2. 2The assistant drafts the entry — completed tasks, goal connections, and a summary. You confirm it or edit.
  3. 3Optionally add what was truly important today. The entry is saved to your timeline — "Today's story is written." Tomorrow, you open a new page.
