A quiet place to keep your life. Every entry is a spatial canvas — drag cards or images anywhere on the grid, no linear document. Navigate everything in a life-in-weeks view, where each week you've lived is one cell. Share your profile with friends, or keep it private. Look back at your own milestones when you need a push. And also it's completely free.

I'm 30, and when I tried to list what I'd done with my life, I got to three things: finished school, started my first business, got married.
Three milestones, then my memory went blank. It wasn't that nothing happened - it's that nothing was saved anywhere I would ever look again.
So I asked myself: what if I could see my whole life as a grid of weeks, and every cell could have something in it? Something I could click, read, and actually remember. I couldn't find that app, so I built it.
Why not Instagram or Facebook? Those apps are built for an audience — you post for other people, and eventually you start editing yourself for them. I wanted the opposite: a place I write for myself, about things that don't photograph well. A decision. A failure. A trip. A year that quietly changed everything.
Canvas - the editor. An entry isn't a document you type into, it's a page you compose. Every object is a card: heading, text, image, quote, achievement, embed. You drag it anywhere and resize it on the page grid, like laying out a magazine spread. Inspired by Craft, with a lot more room to arrange things yourself. An optional AI asks follow-up questions while you write, so you get past the dry "it was a good run" and into what actually happened.
Memento Mori - your whole life as a grid of weeks. Every week you've lived is one cell; the filled ones hold the events you wrote about. Nothing else has made me feel both how much I've done and how little time there is, the way this view does. Knowing the number is one thing; watching my own squares fill in, week after week, is another. That's when I started asking: what am I filling my life with?
Globe - the same life seen through the places you've been. This is the view that makes it feel complete to me.
Failures matter too. There's a "didn't make it" status for milestones on purpose — the path to anything worth having is paved with failures, and we forget how much they taught us along the way.
I'd genuinely like to know: when you look back at the last five years, how much do you actually remember, or does it feel like one long day spread over five years? And if you saw all of it laid out at once - the wins and the failures - do you think you'd feel like you'd done enough?

@ashotgrigoryan The life-in-weeks view really caught my attention. Seeing memories as part of a finite grid of time feels much more meaningful than another chronological feed. I also love the decision to include failures as milestones, they’re often just as important as the things that worked out. Really interesting concept!

@ashotgrigoryan This looks amazing, and totally free! what's the catch, how are you planning to monetise, you must have infrastructure costs?

@codeandsea Thank you! Infrastructure costs are low since there are not much users now. At first I need to understand if people need this app, then my thoughts are between: freemium or in-app shop with exclusive card designs or themes, like in free-to-play video games. I'm more up to the second option, cause personally don't like freemium models as a user.

I love the concept! The UI/X is pleasant, easy to log in, start, onboarding tour is on point. I'm trying it more and coming back with some more feedback! Congrats, the idea and implementation are lovely!

@ashotgrigoryan I tried adding notes, milestones and such in the same day and the app at the moment has on one hand some delays (it takes awhile for things to appear in the grid).
Also, when the grid finally loads and I select to see everything, only one entry from the day is displayed. Would be useful somehow to see multiple entries on one cell or some visual cue that they exist in the same day and it could be clicked to see more.

@mad94 Thank you for feedback! I'm so glad you exploring it.
In some cases (especially grid) it still can be a little bit rough, because it is the first launch. I will take care of optimization later.
Multiple entries are visible on the grid, here it is:
Maybe you watching profile grid instead of library? There is a difference: profile shows only entries you published, and library shows all of them
