Bay Mode
Focus and systems for people going somewhere.
One rule a day.
Bay Mode is a daily focus system: one named rule, every day, built to cut noise and force a decision. No fluff, no fifteen-tab productivity philosophy.
01
DayDeck runs the rules.
DayDeck is the tool built to make Bay Mode operational, not just aspirational. Four parts, cross-linked so nothing lives in isolation:
- Tasks — the one-task test: pick the single task that makes today count, and see it against everything else you're avoiding.
- Calendar — synced with Google Calendar, so the 90-minute lock-in blocks show up where your day already lives.
- Notes — linked to tasks and days directly, not a separate app you forget to open.
- Focus timer — runs the 90-minute lock-in and closes the day with the shutdown protocol, so “done” is a decision, not a guess.
It’s an early personal beta, built and used by one person. That’s not a caveat — it’s the point: every change comes from someone actually running the system, and if you use it, you have a direct line to the person building it.
