Why I Built Rhythm

I wanted a system that supported me not just in what I had to do — but who I wanted to become. Something flexible, intelligent, and emotionally aware. So I started building Rhythm.

It began as a tool to manage tasks, but quickly grew into something more: a self-reflective assistant that uses behavioral science to help users structure their day around meaning, not just productivity.

Core Features

Daily Rhythm Flow: Morning planning, evening review, and habit reminders
Life Domain Framework: Tracks progress across goals like Health, Career, Creativity, etc.
Memory-Aware: Custom GPT version remembers goals and tasks for continuity
Emotionally Intelligent: Designed to support well-being, not just execution

What I Learned

Designing with Psychology: Applying behavioral science helped shape features that actually stick
ChatGPT as a Collaborator: From system prompts to interface flow, I used GPT to ideate, refine, and improve
Simplicity Wins: The best feedback came from making it feel personal — not complex

What’s Next

Rhythm is still evolving. I’m exploring integrations with calendar APIs, richer journaling prompts, and deeper customization features. The goal is to build a truly personal interface for living.
