About

Hey, I'm Ali. I've spent years starting things and not finishing them. Not from laziness. From getting pulled in too many directions at once, always feeling busy, rarely making real progress on the thing that actually mattered. SideTracked is what I built to fix that. One project, five moves a day, an AI coach that stops you before you drift. I built the whole thing solo in three weeks because I was tired of waiting for the right moment to start. My goal is simple: help a million people actually finish what they started. Not be more organised. Not have a better system. Just do the thing they keep saying matters, every day, until it's done. I believe the next wave of AI isn't about doing more, it's about doing the right thing. SideTracked is my bet on that.

The Problem

I built SideTracked around one observation: most people don't lose their projects to laziness or distraction. They lose them to things that feel like work but aren't.

Curious whether this resonates with people here. What's the most convincing "productive" thing you've caught yourself doing instead of the actual work?
