Quiet focusOne outcome at a time.
Less management. More momentum.

A focus system that stays out of your way.

Set the outcome, start the clock, and keep moving. GoalBar turns a sprawling task list into one clear commitment.

01

Your goal, always in sight.

The menu bar quietly carries your primary outcome so your next action survives tab switching, meetings, and the rest of the day.

02

Focus time with context.

Track time against the goal—not a generic timer—then see planned versus actual effort across today, this week, and this month.

03

Close the loop daily.

Capture what shipped, name the blocker, and choose tomorrow’s first focus before you step away.

A small, repeatable loop

Decide. Focus. Ship. Review.

  1. 01

    Choose the outcome

    Set a daily, weekly, or monthly goal and make one primary.

  2. 02

    Start focused work

    The timer keeps running even when the dashboard is hidden.

  3. 03

    Ship and learn

    Mark progress, compare the plan, and record tomorrow’s first move.

Local-first by design

Your goals are yours.

GoalBar stores your focus history locally on your Mac. There are no accounts, analytics trackers, or background activity monitoring.

  • Local JSON storage
  • No keystroke or screen monitoring
  • Open development on GitHub
No goals. No gain.

Put the outcome where you’ll see it.

GoalBar is being built in public for founders, developers, and focused makers.
