Features
Starting is the hard part
Pilot Light is a to-do list built around one thing: the first step on the task you keep putting off.
Your first step, your words
Write the first step with a when and a where: "After coffee, at the kitchen table, I'll open the email."
Nothing else to decide
When it's time, the screen shows only your line. Read it once. Light it. Go.
Three things today
Three things live today. The rest wait in Later, out of the way until you bring one in.
Too big? Go smaller
Get three smaller first steps to choose from, then say the one you pick your way. You decide, every time.
Two of three is a good day
Nothing turns red. Start something and the day counts toward your streak.
Close the day
End with tomorrow's first line, so the morning starts with a step, not a list.
How it works
One line, then go
Three steps between the task you're avoiding and the moment you start it.
Pick the one you're avoiding
The email, the call, the form. Choose the task that keeps sliding.
Write the first step
When and where, in your words. Small enough to do in two minutes.
Light it
At your time, Pilot Light shows your line. Tap to light it, and start.
Your line, not ours
A plan you can start in two minutes
A to-do list tells you what. Pilot Light asks for the very first step, with a when and a where, and helps you make it smaller if it isn't.
- No account needed to start
- Works offline and syncs when you're back
- Keep your tasks safe with Apple, Google or email sign-in
FAQ
Questions
Is Pilot Light free?
You get 7 days free. After that, Pilot Light is a yearly or monthly subscription, billed through the App Store. The price is shown in the app before you start, we'll remind you two days before your free week ends, and you can cancel any time in your App Store settings.
Which devices are supported?
Pilot Light is for iPhone. Android is coming soon on Google Play.
Does it treat ADHD?
No. Pilot Light is a to-do list, not a treatment. It doesn't diagnose or treat ADHD.
Does AI write my tasks?
No. If a step feels too big, you can ask for three smaller ones and say the one you pick in your own words. Suggestions come from OpenAI, and only once you've agreed to it.
