GoalFriction

GoalFriction is a mobile + web AI-assisted goal-setting app that focuses less on inspirational planning and more on identifying the real reasons goals fail: time conflicts, energy patterns, hidden dependencies, and avoidance loops. Users set 1–3 goals, then the app forces a “friction audit” by asking for constraints (work hours, commute, caregiving, health limits) and past failure patterns. It generates a realistic weekly plan with built-in buffers, plus a short list of “risk triggers” to watch. Each week, users do a 5-minute review: what slipped, why, and what to change. The app tracks friction metrics (overcommit rate, plan breakpoints, recurring blockers) and suggests small structural fixes (schedule shifts, scope cuts, pre-commitments) rather than generic motivation tips. It integrates with Google Calendar to validate feasibility and prevent fantasy plans.
