“Day evaluator. Gives you a summary of how you spent your time and how it can be improved”
DayAutopsy 9000
“You just described RescueTime circa 2008, but with more existential dread and fewer excuses.”
An AI agent that ingests your calendar, app usage, and activity logs to generate a brutally honest daily time audit with prioritized improvement suggestions.
This is one of the most saturated micro-SaaS categories in existence. RescueTime, Toggl Track, Reclaim.ai, and Clockwise have been fighting over this turf for years with millions in funding. The AI spin is real but thin — every single one of these incumbents has shipped 'AI insights' in the last 18 months. You're not early, you're late to the party where they're already cleaning up.
