About Protocol

A scoreboard, not a bureaucracy

Protocol exists because most habit trackers get it backwards. They add complexity where there should be simplicity. Reminders, gamification, social features, AI suggestions — all well-intentioned, all friction.

The premise is simple: if tracking something takes more effort than doing it, delete the tracking. Protocol is a scoreboard. Open it, check your boxes, close it. The data accumulates in the background, and when you want to see patterns, they're there.

How it works

1

Add your habits

Daily, weekly, or monthly. Organize them into domains. Enable timers and notes where it makes sense.

2

Check your boxes

One tap to complete. Optional mood check-in at the end of the day. Takes seconds.

3

See the patterns

Trend charts, streaks, heatmaps, and mood correlation. Understand what your best days have in common.

Design principles

  • -Mobile-first. Designed for your phone. Dark mode only. Fast.
  • -One data shape. Every completion is a date and an item. That's it.
  • -No architecture tourism. No unnecessary abstractions, no over-engineering.
  • -Your data. Export everything anytime. No lock-in.
