How it works
Three steps to execution
Step 1
Set your professional and project goals
Tell the AI what you're working toward — 'Pass my PE exam in October' or 'Become a project manager within 2 years.' It builds a structured plan around your real timeline.
Goal: Pass PE Civil exam in October
Context: Staff civil engineer, 4 years experience
Priority: High
Step 2
Get a milestone-driven study or career plan
AI breaks your goal into concrete milestones — subject modules, practice exam sets, weak area review — with tasks distributed across your available study time.

Weeks 1–63/3 tasks
Depth Section Focus
Weeks 7–142/3 tasks
Final Review & Exam
Weeks 15–180/3 tasks
Step 3
Study and advance consistently alongside project work
Your daily view shows study tasks and project milestones together. Focus sessions protect the time you need for deep technical work and exam prep.
