Hey PH 👋 Onit is a reminders app that builds itself from your messages. The story: an insurance renewal email arrived in March. The negotiation window closed ~30 days later. By the time the invoice came, the leverage was gone. Apple Reminders didn't catch it because (a) I had to create the reminder manually, and (b) one notification fires once and disappears. Onit solves both: 1. **Message-connected** — read-only Gmail, a per-user forward-email address, or a Telegram bot you DM/forward into. You never type a reminder. 2. **Persistent** — escalates from weekly → 3-day → daily as the deadline approaches. Only "Done" or "Snooze," never "Dismiss." 3. **Action-window aware** — fires before the window closes, not when the deadline hits. Insurance renewals 30 days early. Software trials 7 days early. Domains 14 days early. Privacy is the moat: Gmail is read-only (never sends, modifies, or deletes). Full message bodies are never stored. OAuth tokens encrypted at rest. No analytics SDKs. One-tap disconnect deletes everything within 24h. iPhone only for now. Free to start, Plus unlocks extra sources. Would love feedback on the action-window concept specifically — does the 30-day insurance lead time match how you actually negotiate?
