Addison: What's Your Next Move

Addison — ADHD Task Manager, Focus Timer & Executive Function App

The executive function app for people who want it all the ambitious, the overwhelmed, the ones with a hundred ideas and a hard time starting. Most productivity apps give you a list. Addison gives you a next move.

If you've ever stared at a to-do list and felt your brain short-circuit, if you've ever known exactly what you needed to do and still couldn't start, Addison was built for you.

How it works

Dump everything on your mind into your task list; assignments, errands, that email you've been avoiding, the laundry, the thing you promised yourself you'd do last Tuesday. Addison organizes it, prioritizes it, and hands you back one thing to focus on. No decisions. No overwhelm. Just what's next.

When you're ready, start the timer. A 3-2-1 countdown marks the moment you cross from thinking into doing. The timer fills the screen as time completes, so you always feel your progress. One task at a time. That's the whole thing.

Built for ADHD, executive dysfunction, and everyone in between.
Addison is a productivity app for people with ADHD, executive dysfunction, autism, anxiety, depression, or anyone who struggles with task initiation, focus, procrastination, time blindness, overwhelm, and follow-through, without the shame.

Whether you're a college student managing coursework and deadlines, a graduate student writing a thesis, a working professional juggling projects, a parent running a household, a freelancer balancing clients, or just someone trying to stop spinning and start doing — Addison meets you where you are. It's a daily planner, a focus coach, a gentle accountability partner, and a to-do list that actually understands why to-do lists don't work.

Why Addison is different

Most ADHD apps, productivity apps, and task management tools assume you already know what to do next. Addison assumes the opposite — that knowing what to do next is the hardest part. Every feature is built around lowering the cost of starting.

- One thing at a time. Instead of an overwhelming list, Addison shows you a single next action. The rest waits until you're ready.
- A ritual, not just a timer. The 3-2-1 countdown turns "starting" into a small, repeatable ceremony — the kind of cue ADHD brains need to shift gears.
- Visible progress.The timer fills the screen as you work, giving you constant, ambient feedback on time passing — the antidote to time blindness.
- Breakdowns on demand. When a task feels too big, Addison breaks it down into smaller steps you can actually begin.
