Not just a timer — a system for focus and thinking

Orchestrana is not another Pomodoro timer. It’s a calm, structured system that connects tasks, time, and AI-assisted thinking into one workflow — designed for deep work. Built over the past year, it helps you move beyond simple timers and actually understand how you work. Includes: • Focus sessions with customizable timing • Task and calendar integration • AI-assisted task breakdown and insights • A clean, distraction-free interface Available now on macOS.












Hi everyone 👋
I’ve been working on Orchestrana for over a year.
It started as a better Pomodoro timer for macOS, but the more I built and used it, the more I realized the real problem was not just timing. The harder problem is that focus, tasks, calendar time, reminders, and thinking often live in separate places.
You plan in one app, track time in another, keep tasks somewhere else, and then lose the context of what you were actually trying to do.
Orchestrana is my attempt to make that workflow feel more connected and calm.
Current features include:
• customizable Pomodoro sessions, short breaks, long breaks, and presets
• advanced task management with due dates, tags, completion states, and planning metadata
• Apple Reminders and Apple Calendar sync
• Calendar views for planning context
• task-to-calendar workflows
• Flow Mode for a more focused working surface
• menu bar controls
• daily focus stats and productivity insights
• ambient audio, built-in sound packs, audio mixer, and optional custom audio packs
• advanced features such as Markdown task descriptions, subtasks, advanced charts, custom Flow Mode, and AI-assisted workflows
• AI-assisted task breakdown, task drafting, task planning, task descriptions, event-task generation, calendar rescheduling, weekly summaries, and deeper analysis
The difference I’m trying to build is that Orchestrana is not just a timer and not just a task list. The goal is to connect planning and execution in one native macOS workflow, so your tasks, time, calendar, and focus sessions can support each other instead of staying disconnected.
I’m also publishing a public roadmap for the next phase. The direction includes lightweight notes, phase notes attached to focus sessions, AI Jam for structured thinking, workspace context processing, a personal knowledge base, and portable export formats such as Markdown, JSON, context packs, Jam packs, and full knowledge archives.
The long-term goal is to make Orchestrana feel less like “another productivity app” and more like a calm operating system for focus and thinking.
I’d really appreciate feedback on what feels useful, what feels unnecessary, and what you think is missing. Critical feedback is very welcome.
Also, I’m located in Asia, so because of time zones, I may not be able to reply instantly, but I’ll do my best to reply to everyone’s comments as soon as I can.
Thanks for checking it out 🙌
