The page you open every morning.
When you woke, when you started, three blocks of work, how each one scored. That's it.
Scarcity is a small, careful set of pages for the work that matters, the body you live in, and the choices you'd rather not forget. One page for today. One for the year. An assistant that remembers everything else.
What's inside · six pages
Not a productivity suite. Not a journal. A handful of pages you'll actually open — for the parts of your life worth tracking by hand.
When you woke, when you started, three blocks of work, how each one scored. That's it.
Rolling averages across 7, 30, and 91 days. You see whether you're actually doing the thing you said.
Write down a choice. List both sides honestly. Pick, and keep a record of why — so you can re-read it in six months.
Atlas blocks your calendar around the work you said matters, the calls you've accepted, and the body you're trying to keep.
The boring stuff. One page each. No streaks-as-anxiety, no notifications you didn't ask for.
Ask Atlas anything. It answers from your pages — not from the internet. Your data is the corpus.
Principles · how it's built
I'm one person. I get to decide what kind of tool this is. These are the rules I won't break, even later.
No streaks-as-anxiety. No notifications you didn't ask for. No growth loops. If you forget to open it for a week, that's fine.
One export button. I'm not selling it, training on it, or showing ads against it. I'd rather charge a small fair fee.
I'm building this for myself first. That means it gets quieter and more careful over time, not more featured.
I built Scarcity because I couldn't find a tool that did one thing properly: hold the day I'm trying to have, and tell me honestly whether I had it.
Most apps want more from you. More entries, more streaks, more screens. This one wants less. The whole thing fits on a handful of pages because that's what I actually open — and what I don't open, I delete.
For two years it was a Notion mess. Then a Python script. Then this. A few friends saw it and asked if they could have it too, which is why there's a sign-up form on this page. If you're here, thank you for taking the time.

There will be a free plan for getting started with the core product. The full product is planned at $20/month, but billing is not switched on yet.

The full plan is intended to include full Atlas access, full planning and tracking tools, richer history, and deeper decision support.
No. Billing is not active yet. The pricing on this page shows the intended packaging, not an active checkout flow.
Scarcity is for people who want a personal operating system for goals, projects, daily inputs, and better decisions — especially when they need help staying aligned with what matters.
Atlas is the assistant inside Scarcity. It uses your goals, projects, daily inputs, and saved context to help you think through decisions and prioritise better. Your data isn't used to train any model, and you can disable Atlas from settings.
Both. The planner gives Atlas the context it needs, and Atlas helps turn that context into better choices.
Yes, the product should remain export-friendly. The current product is still early, so export options may be basic at first and improve over time.
No. This is single-player on purpose. Your day is not a Google Doc.
Leave an email. I'll send an invite when the next batch goes out, and nothing else.
