The first AI assistant built for ADHD

Most productivity software is designed for a brain that plans ahead, remembers its own intentions, and does the same thing every day without much friction. If that isn't how your brain works, the app usually becomes one more thing you feel behind on. Experiment of Life started from a different question: what would an assistant look like if it was built around how ADHD actually behaves day to day, instead of around an idealized version of a user who never exists?

The core idea is simple. Instead of handing you a rigid plan and expecting you to follow it, the assistant treats your life as a series of small, low stakes experiments. Try going to bed twenty minutes earlier for a few nights. Try a short walk before your hardest task. Try writing things down the moment they occur to you instead of trusting you'll remember. Each one is reversible, cheap to test, and easy to drop if it doesn't help.

Adapting to the day you're having

ADHD symptoms are not constant. Some days focus comes easily, other days everything feels heavier for reasons that aren't always obvious. An assistant that assumes you're the same every day will keep giving you advice that fits yesterday, not today. Experiment of Life checks in on energy and mood and adjusts what it suggests accordingly, rather than pushing the same fixed routine regardless of how you're actually doing.

It also meets you where your thoughts already happen. A lot of useful ideas and reminders show up in the shower, on a walk, or in the middle of something else entirely, and they vanish just as fast. You can send a thought to the assistant over WhatsApp the second it crosses your mind, without opening another app or finding a notebook.

No streaks, no guilt

Many habit apps rely on streaks: miss a day and you lose your progress, which for a lot of ADHD brains turns into an all or nothing spiral. Disappear for a week, and the app makes you feel like you have to start over from shame. Experiment of Life doesn't work that way. Come back whenever you come back. The five minute focus timer is there when starting feels impossible, and the whole system is built to pick back up gently, not to punish the gap.
