The life OS your
AI agent can
actually run.

A private, local-first dashboard for your whole life — tasks, calendar, habits, finances, meals, health, notes, projects — plus a Claude Code agent that reads and writes all of it through one documented API, live on every screen you have open.

Every area already built — tasks, habits, finances, meals, health, notes, projects. Nothing to assemble first. Built by one developer — no VC, no dark patterns. Runs on your own machine with no telemetry in the app itself. Pay once, own it.

Features

What's actually in it

Breadth, so it can replace the six apps you're juggling — and one thing none of them do.

Your whole life, one dashboard

Tasks, calendar, habits, goals, finances, meals, health, notes, journal, and project tracking — around 25 modules, in one place instead of six apps.

An agent that can actually drive it

CLAUDE.md is a real, documented REST + SSE contract — typed collections, worked examples. Claude Code reads your data and writes it back: add a task, log a workout, restructure a project roadmap.

Your data, one file, your machine

Everything lives in a single local SQLite file you control. No cloud dependency, no vendor lock-in, exportable any time you want it.

Live on every screen

Changes sync instantly across every open tab and device over Server-Sent Events — including the changes the agent makes while you're not looking.

Health and habits, not just tasks

Routines, workouts, meal planning, and Oura ring sync sit next to your calendar and task list — not in five separate apps with five separate logins.

Pay once. That's it.

No subscription, no seat pricing, no "AI credits" to refill. One license, perpetual use, 12 months of updates included.

Who it's for

One instruction, in your own words.

The agent reads CLAUDE.md and writes to the collections that matter for how you actually live. Same app, four different shapes of day.

Rotating

You ship software.

Developer
“The webhook bug is fixed — close it out everywhere it's tracked.”

And then

Today's work task closes, and the roadmap item moves to done — one instruction, two places. A focus session logs itself against the work, so your week isn't guesswork. The note it came from stays linked, and every open tab is already in step.

Watch it work

Watch it work

Ninety seconds of the agent actually doing things — not a mockup.

The clip follows one example account through the live demo: a developer with a day job, training for a 10k, meal-prepping on Sundays, and shipping a small newsletter-writing side project. You'll watch the agent add a run to tomorrow's calendar, log tonight's dinner from a meal-prep note, and update the side project's roadmap — and see each change land instantly on every open tab, with no refresh. The live demo is seeded with the same fictional data, so what's in the video is what you'll find waiting when you click through.

90-second agent demo — recording in progress Video goes here once it's captured (see docs/launch-progress.md #9).

How it works

What you're actually signing up for

Stated up front on purpose — no surprises after you buy.

01 Runs on your own machine. Install it locally on Windows, Mac, or Linux. Nothing is hosted for you, nothing phones home.
02 Built for one person. It's a single-user life dashboard, not a team tool — built to hold everything about one life well, not to manage a team.
03 Pay once, own it. Perpetual license with 12 months of updates included. Renewing updates after that is optional, never required to keep using it.
04 Agent features need Claude Code. The dashboard works fully on its own. The read/write agent loop uses your own Claude Code subscription — we sell the harness, not the tokens.

The maths

What you'd otherwise pay for, separately

Four things Groundkeep does well enough to replace a paid app for most people — priced against what that app's own paid tier costs.

Category Their price Measured against What Groundkeep does, and doesn't
Task manager $60/yr Todoist Pro A day/backlog list with priorities and project tags — comparable once you outgrow Todoist's free-tier project cap. No natural-language dates, recurring tasks, labels, or calendar/Slack integrations, and no per-task due-time reminders — only one morning and one evening push cover the whole day.
Journal $49.99/yr Day One Silver Daily entries across life areas, synced to every device you open the dashboard on — what Day One's single-device free tier can't do and its paid Silver tier adds. No photo/audio attachments, no AI summaries, no dedicated mobile app.
Notes $29.99/yr Bear Pro Markdown notes with folders, tags, and a 10-deep revision history, synced across devices — what Bear's paid Pro tier adds over its single-device free plan. No databases, backlinks, blocks, or multi-user collaboration — a notes app, not Notion.
Goal tracking $68/yr GoalsOnTrack Goals whose progress is manual or auto-computed from your workouts, habit streaks, or work tasks — the same personal goal-tracking loop as a dedicated app that has no free tier at all. No OKR hierarchy, no team goals.

Add those four up and it's roughly $208/yr in subscriptions — every year — for what Groundkeep includes once, for $59. (A few more paid apps Groundkeep also covers charge a one-time fee instead — a habit tracker, a recipe manager, a focus timer, about $40 combined — left out of the total above since they aren't yearly costs to begin with.)

Read this part: Groundkeep is simpler than every specialist tool listed above. This is a category comparison — "replaces this kind of app for most people" — not a feature-parity claim. If you need real budgeting with bank sync, backlinks, team goals, or a native mobile app, the specialist tool is still the better buy; Groundkeep's finance tracker, for instance, is a manual ledger and bill list, not a bank-connected budgeting app. Prices above are what each vendor publishes as of July 2026 and can change without notice.


Launch price

One-time payment.
Not a subscription.

The price goes up once the first 100 are gone.

$59 while Groundkeep is 0.6.0 — 100 launch spots, then $79
$59 $79

Early price, because Groundkeep is at 0.6.0.

Groundkeep is version 0.6.0. It is complete enough to run your week on — that is what the demo shows — and it is not finished. $59 is what an early version is worth, and the people paying it now are the reason the next ones are better. The discount is a Stripe coupon capped at 100 uses, so when they are gone the price becomes $79 by itself, with nobody having to remember to change this page. Separate from the founding-member discount on the hosted plans below, which has its own 100.

  • Perpetual license, run it forever
  • 12 months of updates included
  • Runs on your own machine — your data never leaves it
  • Optional ~$29/yr renewal after year one
  • Bring your own Claude Code subscription for the agent features

We reply within 24 hours with your link — 48 at weekends. No refunds once you buy, which is the other half of why we talk first.

Groundkeep is a product of DriveVision, Ontario, Canada — the name you'll see at checkout and on your statement.


How to get it

Ask us for it, and we will reply within 24 hours.

There is no instant download button, and that is on purpose while Groundkeep is 0.6.0. Tell us you want it and we send you the link — along with a real answer to whatever you want to ask first.

  1. You leave your email below. That is the whole of it — no form, no call, no card.
  2. We reply within 24 hours with the link to buy and set it up. At weekends it can be 48; we would rather say so than quietly miss a number we invented.
  3. You ask anything first. Whether it runs on your machine, whether it does the one thing you actually need, whether 0.6.0 is too early for you — we would rather talk you out of it now than take $59 for something that was never going to fit.
  4. Then you buy, if you still want it. $59, one time. Because you decide after seeing it and after talking to us, purchases are final — we do not offer refunds on the local licence.

We use it to send you the link and to answer you — nothing else, and no list you did not ask for. Prefer to write first? hello@groundkeep.app.

Groundkeep Cloud — not open yet

Built and running. Priced, but not open.

Closed early access — no date, no commitment

An optional hosted version of Groundkeep: your own instance running somewhere other than your PC, so the agent loop and push notifications still work when your machine is off, reachable from your phone without you setting up your own tunnel. Same local-first idea underneath — hosted for you instead of by you.

It exists and it runs. What it doesn't have is an open door — we're not opening one before it has been proven out on a handful of real instances. If you're on a hosted instance, your data lives on AWS in Ohio and the privacy policy says exactly what that means, including how to get it deleted.

Lite

$20/mo

or $200/yr

− 50% for founding members

The cheapest way in, and it is a smaller machine rather than a smaller product: 256 MB and a quarter vCPU, half a Cloud box. Every tab, the agent, the remote MCP connector and the same nightly backups kept 30 days — nothing is switched off.

Cloud

$40/mo

or $400/yr

− 50% for founding members

Your own isolated instance, always on and reachable from your phone with no tunnel to set up. Managed TLS, and we keep it updated. Twice Lite's machine — 512 MB, half a vCPU. Nightly off-site encrypted backups kept 30 days.

Cloud Pro

$60/mo

or $600/yr

− 50% for founding members

Twice Cloud's machine — 1 GB, a full vCPU — and backups kept 365 days instead of 30, taken every six hours instead of nightly. Those are the differences today; we would rather say so than pad the row.

The first 100 subscriptions pay half, and keep it. Those are the list prices above; a founding discount takes 50% off every one of them, for as long as the subscription runs — not for a year, and not until we change our minds. It follows you if you move between Lite, Cloud and Pro, so the cheapest way in is not a trap that costs you the discount the moment you outgrow it.

Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial and takes a card up front, so your instance keeps running when the trial ends. Cancel any time before then and you are not charged at all — those seven days are when you decide. After the trial, charges are final: cancelling stops future ones, and we do not refund the current or a past period. Your agents stay bring-your-own — we never host AI, and no AI compute is included in these prices.

The $59 local app is unchanged and is still the product on this page: it runs on your machine, and nothing of yours is stored on infrastructure we operate.

Want in? Check the Cloud box on the notify-me form below — that's the one signal we're tracking before opening it up, not a second signup list.
