One chosen intention. A trail of changes and returns.
A pattern you can work with.

01

The product

PanopticYour attention agent

Understand the pattern.
Design the next moment.

Panoptic connects three things that usually live apart: what happened on your computer, what keeps repeating over time, and the intentions you want available when those patterns return.

01 · See beyond totals

Understand the shape, not only the hours.

See sustained stretches, changes, returns, and gaps together—so a total becomes a pattern you can inspect.

02 · Find useful leverage

Choose what deserves support.

Compare recurring behaviour with your own intentions and decide where a different condition would help.

03 · Create follow-through

Put intention in the environment.

Create the reminder or boundary you want in the context where that choice becomes relevant.

Evidence you can inspect. Choices you define.

02

From pattern to action

Evidence becomes useful
when it changes what you can choose.

Today shows the sequence. History shows what repeats. A rule brings your intention back into the relevant context.

Your choice · in context

Turn the pattern into support.

Choose the context, timing, and response. When that situation appears again, Panoptic presents the choice you already made.

  • Choose where the rule applies
  • Choose when it becomes relevant
  • Continue, change course, or set a reminder

A changing environment

Modern computer work moves quickly between contexts.

Across field studies, Gloria Mark and her collaborators reported that average time on one screen fell across the years they observed. Those averages provide context. Panoptic gives you the personal evidence needed to decide what your own pattern means.
