PRODUCT CONCEPT · NOT FOR SALE (YET)
It's the calendar from the fridge door. We just gave it Wi-Fi and took away the magnets.
Every "smart calendar" on the market nailed the syncing and forgot the actual point: nobody has ever fallen in love with a touchscreen. Almanac is matte, it's e-ink, and you write on it with an honest-to-god pen. Groundbreaking, we know.

THE COMPETITION
WHAT IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE
On the wall, exactly where the old one lived, minus the ketchup stain. Or with it, your call.
Ink shows up before you've finished the word. Faster than your group chat replies.
Same entry, already on your phone. No "did you see the calendar" texts required.
HOW IT WORKS
Pick a day, scribble an entry, hit add. It lands on the wall and syncs to the phone in your pocket. No apps, no logins, no "create an account to continue."
Selected day: 24. Pick a different one in the calendar to the right.
try typing the word "birthday" 👀
TAP A DAY.

THE HONEST BIT
I built this the way I'd approach any real product problem: figure out what the incumbent optimised for, find the thing nobody built because it wasn't obviously a screen problem, and get annoyingly specific about the one decision that actually matters: two-way sync. The handwriting recognition is honestly the easy part. Also yes, I know the pen will get lost within a week. The rest of my actual, fundable, employer-approved work is on my CV.
