Dave
Oh look, Dave exists. Maybe say hi?
LOGGEDKind, but it noticed
Tell mote who matters and how often you want to talk. It’ll heckle you — kindly — the second you start drifting. That’s the whole app.
Free. No accounts, no cloud. Just consequences.

8 days, and you KNOW Mom is keeping count.

Priya turns 31 in 3 days. Cake doesn’t bake itself.
Pick a vibe
how sharp should its tongue be?
One mote, four moods. Pick a default, then override it per person — your mentor and your gym buddy do not deserve the same energy.

Mote
ghostedYou’ve ghosted Dave so hard it’s nearly an art form.
There’s a fourth tone, adaptive — soft when fresh, brutal once you ghost. Cowards pick witty. You’ll pick adaptive.
The escalation ladder
how the nagging escalates
day1
- due
“It’s been 3 days. Dave won’t text themselves.”
First nudge, right on schedule.
- overdue
“9 days since Dave. Bold strategy.”
Daily nudges now. You did this to yourself.
- ghosted
“23 days. At this point Dave thinks you’re a myth.”
Full ghost. Mild public shaming unlocked.
After week two it eases off to weekly, then monthly. Relentless, not unhinged. One swipe — “we talked” — resets the whole thing.
The rest of it
small app. long memory.
people, on a rhythm
Add the people you mean to keep. Set a cadence for each — daily to yearly. Mote watches the calendar so you can stop pretending you were about to call.
a ring you can’t argue with
One ring shows how much of your circle you’re actually keeping up with. 100% earns you confetti. Anything less earns you commentary.
don’t “forget” again
Birthday countdowns and check-in streaks, because cake doesn’t bake itself and Grandpa is, in fact, keeping count.
it judges you locally
Your people and check-ins never leave your phone. No accounts, no cloud, no API calls. Clear it any time.
Last chance
somewhere, your people
think you’re a myth.
Fix that. Free, on-device, mildly judgmental.
The Mote takes it from here. Expect the first jab right on schedule.
