The LifeStarr App
The tool to run a
Life-First Business

Free forever. No credit card. Start running your business the life-first way today.
Join Intro for free and you'll also get access to the Academy and community for solopreneurs building a life-first business.
How it's different
Everywhere else, you're either the owner or a guest. Here, everyone belongs.
Every other tool is one company's workspace. The company that owns it is home; everyone else is a guest with a limited pass. Want to work together? You both have to be inside the same company's walls.
LifeStarr is one open network, and everyone stands on their own ground in it. Get the app free and it's yours, not a guest seat in someone else's account. From there you work with anyone, in any company, on either side of the relationship.
And anyone who'd rather not sign up? They're still in. They take part by email, from their own inbox, no account needed. Joining gets you more. Not joining never leaves you out.
We call it a Productivity Network.
The Accountability Gap
Most tools focus on commitments made to yourself or other team members.
My To-Dos
What you've committed to others. Every task manager does this half well enough.
LifeStarr tracks every commitment made to you by anyone, even by people who never sign in.
Waiting For
What others have committed to you, tracked just as carefully as your own work, without them needing to join your account or even use the app.
Every commitment has one Assignor and one Assignee, so it's always clear who owns the next move, and nothing floats between you.
Non-User Participation
Your client/vendor/contractor probably won’t sign up for another app.
Good! They don’t have to.
Assign a task to anyone with an email address. Your contractor, your bookkeeper, the client who owes you sign-off. They get a plain email with three buttons: yes I can help, ask a question, or I can’t help with this. Or they can just hit reply, which works exactly the same way.
That’s the whole ask. One email, three buttons, no password.
And then they stay with you the whole way through. When the start date arrives, they hear about it. When you change the task, they get the current version. When you add a file, it lands in their inbox as an attachment. When you replace it, the new version shows up with a note to swap the old one out. When the due date lands, they get a heads up. When something runs past due, they get a friendly nudge asking where things stand, so you’re not the one doing the chasing.
When you approve their work, they get the sign-off. Fourteen different moments, all handled by email, all showing up in your Waiting For as they happen.
They never make an account. They never learn your system. They never see anything except the one task you sent them.
And if they want more, that’s free too. Every email offers them their own LifeStarr account, with the work they’ve already done here waiting for them. Then they get to see what they’re owed, same as you.

From a cluttered inbox to a closed loop.
Here's the actual app, one step at a time, the day-to-day engine of a life-first business. Click any clip to play it.
01 The Problem
Is your inbox a nightmare, and are the chat apps making it worse?
The inbox never ends. The messages never stop. And that thing someone promised you last month is buried in there somewhere. This is how work slips.
02 Better Email
Turn the right emails into commitments.
Focus on the emails from your network, the people you actually work with. Associate any one of them with a task, and the commitment lives right there, the whole thread with it. Keep using your own email client too.
03 Tasks Hold Commitments
Every commitment lives in one task.
Name the task, set a due date, even a start date if it's for later. Roles and Tags keep everything organized, and you can add Collaborators when a task needs more hands. Then the emails, the files, and your private notes all sit inside the task, right where you need them.
04 My To-Dos
Every to-do in your life, on one list.
See all your commitments in one place, or filter by Role and Tag to zero in on what matters right now. Everything you need is in the task. Nothing scattered, nothing forgotten.
05 Waiting For
What others are doing for you, finally visible.
Here's the Accountability Gap: the commitments other people made to you that nothing else tracks, so they slip through the cracks. Waiting For closes it. Assign a task to anyone, then watch its status as they work, every detail right there in the task. The gap, closed.
06 Non-User Participation
Assign a task to anyone. No account required.
Track a commitment from anyone by assigning them a task, even if they've never heard of LifeStarr. They get a plain email, and right from it they can agree to help, ask a question, or decline. From there, emails carry them through the whole task, including file attachments and a nudge when something runs past due. No signup, and it's free on every tier.
07 Projects
Break a task into steps and it becomes a Project, automatically.
Some things are too big for a single task. Add sub-tasks and the task becomes a project on its own, with sub-tasks that can have their own sub-tasks, as simple or as detailed as you need. See a project's status at a glance, then drill down to isolate what's stuck, across every project in your life.
08 Notifications
A news feed for your commitments. On your schedule.
Most tools interrupt you by default. LifeStarr collects it all in one place, a feed you work through when you're ready. See who messaged, what changed, what's due, and what's late. One click takes you straight to the task. Keep track of everything, and get interrupted by nothing.
09 Close the Loop
Done means done, and you decide when.
When the assignee marks a task complete, you get notified, and you decide whether it's truly finished. Approve it, or send it back. Once you approve, the task and all its emails are archived, off your plate and on the record. You stay in control of your work.
