A semester is a long to-do list: readings, assignments, revision, part-time shifts and the routines that keep you sane. Most planners help you write it down. Pawductive helps you keep going, because every finished task earns EXP and coins for a virtual cat that levels up with you.
Pawductive is launching soon on the web and Android.
Why a gamified planner helps when you're studying
Big goals like pass the exam or finish the thesis are hard to start. Small, visible rewards make the next step easier: you finish one reading, your cat gets EXP, your streak grows. It's the same reason games feel easy to keep playing, applied to the work you already have to do.
How to set up Pawductive for a semester
- Add your routines as recurring tasks. Review lecture notes every weekday, gym three times a week, plan the week every Sunday.
- Add deadlines as one-off tasks. Essays, problem sets, lab reports.
- Use goals for study time. A goal like 45 minutes or 20 pages turns "study more" into something you can finish.
- Ask PawAI to break things down. Tell it "I have a statistics exam in three weeks" and it suggests small tasks with a schedule. Add the ones you like in one tap.
- Check off, level up, repeat. Spend coins on outfits for your cat, and use the progress charts to see your week and your month.
Free is enough to start
The Free plan includes up to 3 active tasks, your pet and the shop, and 2 PawAI messages to try the planner. That's enough for your most important routines. Pro ($4.99 a month or $39.99 a year, about $3.33 a month) removes the limits on tasks and reminders. See pricing.
