Hatch it.

Every deadlineis an egg.

Hatch It keeps your launches, their tasks and who owns them in Chrome's side panel. The egg warms up, cracks and hatches as the date gets closer.

Free. No account. Your data stays in your browser.

A launch, from egg to chick.

Hatch It swaps the progress bar for a character. You feel how close a date is before you read a number. Scroll to watch one 30-day launch go by.

Incubating

The date is far away. The egg is calm.

You add a launch with a start date and a target date. Nothing nags you. The egg just sits there, warm and quiet.

Warming up

Time passes. A first crack shows up.

Past the halfway point the shell starts to change. That's your cue to check which tasks are still open.

Cracking

The shell is splitting. Time to move.

Tasks that wait on unfinished work show as blocked, so you can see what's holding the launch up.

Hatching soon

Something is peeking out.

The last stretch. The egg wobbles faster, and the people who own the remaining tasks are right there on the card.

Hatched

Shipped. Out of the shell and into the world.

Mark the launch as launched and the chick hops out. Archive it with a note when you're done, and restore it any time.

Overcooking

Missed the date? You'll see it, not guess it.

An egg that goes past its date starts to fry. It's a friendly kind of alarm: hard to ignore, and easy to fix by moving the date or finishing the work.

One panel. Every launch.

Launches, soonest first

Add a start date and a target date. The panel sorts everything by what hatches next, right beside the tab you're working in.

Tasks with owners and dependencies

Give tasks a due date and an owner, and link the ones that depend on each other. A task waiting on something else says so.

Hatch it, archive it, undo it

Mark a launch as launched, archive it with a note, restore it later. Deleted something by accident? Undo brings it back.

Light and dark themes, full keyboard control and screen reader labels. Back up to a file whenever you like.

Your launches stay in your nest.

Hatch It has no account, no servers, no analytics and no ads. Everything you type is saved in your own browser and goes nowhere else.
