Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m excited to share a side project I’ve been working on the past few months: hourglass. I know you’re thinking: yet another productivity product?? 😱 Honestly, I’m surprised I was so drawn to this idea. But the truth is, I love its simplicity and am curious if other folks will find it as powerful as I do. hourglass has two parts: 1) 📝 a laminated sheet with boxes you cross off for every hour you work on a side project 2) 🤖 an SMS bot that provides stats, streaks, and nudges in the background When I sent hourglass to a few friends, I was surprised to see the variety of ways they used it: learning violin🎻, studying for a test ✏️, tracking workouts 🏋️‍♀️, searching for a job 💼, volunteering 🤲, and more 📚🎬🥋🎨. This gave me the confidence to spend my evenings and weekends turning my living room into a lamination center (sorry roommate!) and share this side project with the world. Thanks for reading 🙏 - very curious what questions or feedback you guys have! P.S. You can use the discount code "PRODUCT" at checkout for free shipping 📬

I used hourglass to track my hours spent on my side project when I was still at my full time job. It gave me the tools I needed to stay accountable and showed me I was spending real time on my side project... and that it was time to go full time on it! Thank you hourglass ⌛️ 🙌🏼

This is awesome thanks for making @rileysoward! I love the simplicity and the accountability it pushes one towards - it's so easy to forget to put in the time for side projects and now there's a physical and digital way to keep track.

The weekly planner is the best thing one can hope for for a visual way of tracking those workouts. Thanks @rileysoward for empowering my gains for days.
