Designed for Distracted Minds

Every feature exists for one reason: to help you finish what you started today. Everything else was ruthlessly cut.

08

Today 8

Eight tasks. That's your day. Not a hard limit — a gentle nudge toward focus. Research shows limiting choices reduces decision fatigue.

The Queue

Everything else goes in the Queue. Tomorrow's tasks, next week's ideas, someday-maybes. Out of sight, out of the anxiety spiral.

Zero Friction

No tags, no priorities, no color codes, no due dates unless you want them. Just tasks. Check them off. Feel the dopamine.

Retro CRT Theme

Green phosphor on black. Scanlines. Terminal vibes. It's not just aesthetic — the dark theme reduces eye strain for marathon focus sessions.

Apple Watch

Glance at your wrist. See your today list. Check off a task. Back to life in 3 seconds. Coming soon.

Cloud Sync

Grain Plus syncs across devices. Shared lists for partners, roommates, teams. Nested tasks when you need to break things down.

Born from Paper Scraps

It started with little pieces of paper.

Pocket-sized scraps, torn from notebooks, folded twice so they'd fit next to his keys. Every morning, Tighe would write down what needed to happen that day. Eight items, maybe fewer. Whatever would fit.

He loved those scraps. They were small enough to not be overwhelming. They forced him to choose. With ADHD, that constraint was everything — the difference between a productive day and a day lost to the void of infinite options.

But paper scraps get lost. They go through the wash. They fall behind the couch. And when they're gone, so is the plan.

Grain is the digital version of those pocket scraps.

Same philosophy: small, focused, finite. The Today 8 feature gently encourages eight tasks per day — not as a hard limit, but as a design philosophy. Anything beyond today goes into the Queue, where it waits patiently instead of screaming for attention.

Built by someone with ADHD, for people with ADHD. No complexity creep. No feature bloat. No productivity guilt. Just a clean list, a clear day, and the satisfaction of checking things off.
