Where One Job is headed

One Job is built on a simple bet: a deck of cards is a better home for your attention than a list. Everything below grows out of that — from the app you can use today to some ideas we're still turning over in our hands. Order within each section is rough; the sections themselves are the real sequence.

Last updated July 7, 2026 · maintained in the open — the working roadmap has all the internal detail.

Now — in the app today

The deck

One card at a time. Swipe right to complete, left to send it to the bottom for later. Tap to read; edits save themselves.

Cards inside cards

Any card can hold its own deck of sub-tasks, as deep as the work goes. A card won't complete while its inside is unfinished.

An honest afterlife

Done, Archive, and Trash are places, not verdicts — completed work from anywhere in your deck lands there, every move can be walked back, and undo is everywhere.

Local-first, with real backups

No account, no tracking, works offline. Export your whole deck as a file; the app reminds you when a backup is getting old — and only says a backup succeeded when it actually saw it happen.

iOS beta

The native iPhone/iPad app is in TestFlight, on its way to the App Store.

Later — the spatial layer

A canvas of decks

More than one deck, side by side on a surface you can pan and zoom — work, home, someday — with the system piles as real places.

The zoom continuum

Pinch from the canvas into a deck into a single card filling your screen. The card never opens a window — you go into the card.

Rearranging by hand

Fan the deck out, drag cards where you want them, let it snap back. Deferring stops being the only way to reprioritize.

One big stack, on demand

An "inchworm" view that flattens your whole tree of decks into a single walkable stack — and unflattens the moment you want the structure back.

Later — plays well with others

Two-way sync with your existing tools

Connect Todoist, Jira, Linear, Asana. Your team's system stays the system of record; One Job becomes the way you actually move through the work. Changes flow both directions.

Cards that carry their context

Due dates, assignees, labels, links, and attachments arriving with connected cards — without cluttering the card face.

Someday — cards from your agents

An inbox for AI-dealt cards

Your agents and assistants deal cards into your deck; you play them like any other card. An agent-dealt card should feel exactly like one you wrote — and no agent gets to reorder your deck.

Deal a card the other way

Hand a card to an agent from the card itself, keep it visible while the work is theirs, and see completion flow back.

This page is the honest version: order and details change as we learn from people actually using the thing. If something here matters to you, tell us — real usage reports have already reshaped this list more than once.
