What is Pippin?
Pippin is an automatic task list for your Mac and a memory layer for your work. It remembers what you were working on, turns unfinished work into tasks, and keeps your list up to date.
For anyone who has given up on to-do apps, forgets what is waiting on them, or has too much to keep track of, Pippin takes the chore out of keeping a list current.
It writes tasks from the text in your windows, updates them as work moves, and checks off finished work. Waiting-on rows track replies you need. Related work forms projects automatically. New suggestions appear in Recents; you choose which ones belong on your To-do list.
Ask in chat what you worked on today or where you left off. Pippin stays quiet, with no notifications or nudges, so you can check in when you want.

The main metric of success for us has been day-8 return on ad spend. What we try to figure out is not only are people willing to use an app but are they willing to pay for it — and then are we able to acquire customers in a way that makes sense economically with just immediate cash payback.
Day-8 ROAS as Single Metric Took Opal from Zero to $5M ARR in One Year
Opal scaled from near-zero to $5M ARR in roughly 12 months by anchoring every product and marketing decision to a single metric: day-8 ROAS. The 7-day free trial makes this measurement tight and actionable. When above 100%, they scaled ad spend; when below, they cut back. No forecasting models, no complex attribution — just one number everyone understood.
you kind of have to just stop yourself and say okay what does the new reality look like and divorce yourself from your previous decisions... we basically had to really stop doing everything that we had told our investors and our customers and everything else that we were going to do.
When a Black Swan Hits, Divorce Yourself From All Previous Commitments Immediately
Monarch had promised investors and users a major goals-and-planning feature overhaul. The Mint shutdown forced a complete roadmap freeze to handle infrastructure scaling, Canadian expansion, and the massive CS backlog. Sunk-cost bias makes it psychologically hard to abandon committed plans, but the teams that win in black swan moments are the ones that wipe the slate and re-stack-rank from scratch based on the new reality.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
