TheoMate app

Say it once.Find it here.

The app is where a spoken request becomes something you can read, edit and send. On your desktop, and in your pocket.

The TheoMate desktop app, Today: a greeting, one decision waiting, the next two meetings, and four artifacts ready to review.
The TheoMate app on an iPhone, Today: one decision waiting, two meetings next, three things ready to review.

From the wrist

Hold, speak, release — then watch it land.

The band has no screen, so the phone is where the words appear. Three moments, each saying one thing plainly: listening, accepted, finished.

  1. The TheoMate app listening: a lit microphone, a live waveform, and the spoken words appearing as text with a thirty-second bound.

    01

    Listening

    The words appear as you speak them, with the bound in plain sight: seven seconds of a proposed thirty.

  2. The TheoMate app showing Received: accepted, not done, with the request quoted back and the next cue explained.

    02

    Received

    One pulse on the wrist. It means accepted, not finished — and the screen says so in those words.

  3. The TheoMate app showing a saved note: the customer story Theo wrote, with its request identity and a button to open it in OpenCharts.

    03

    Ready to review

    Two pulses. The note is written, titled, and waiting in the workspace you pointed it at.

Cue patterns and the capture bound are proposed behaviours from the interaction record; discriminability needs user testing.

The day

Three things are ready.One needs you.

Today answers a short question: what happened while I was away, and what wants me now. The decision sits at the top because it is the only thing that cannot wait. Everything else is work you can open when you choose to.

  • Needs you, first

    One row at the top, with the reason it is waiting. Never a badge count.

  • Next, with the work attached

    The meetings you have, and what Theo prepared for each.

  • Ready to review

    What finished while you were out, shown as the artifacts themselves.

Approval

Nothing leaveswithout you.

This is the screen the band cannot be. A draft, the three sources it was built from, and two plain choices. The rule is not a preference in this window: a consequential action waits for a screen you trust, and a band press is a request, never a signature.

  • Built from

    Your dictated recap, your calendar, and the meeting you accepted. Nothing else.

  • A long-short pulse

    The one cue that asks something of you, rather than telling you something.

  • Not now is a real answer

    Nothing is queued, retried or sent quietly if you walk away.

The TheoMate app on an iPhone: a sheet asking whether to send the thank-you email, offering Review and send, or Not now.

The same decision, in your pocket.

The work

Everything it makesis a real object.

Documents, boards, decks, sheets, flowcharts and notes — all of them OpenCharts objects in the workspace you already use. TheoMate keeps no private copy of your work, so there is no second place to go looking for it.

  • Six kinds of artifact

    Documents, boards, decks, sheets, flowcharts and notes.

  • Opened where it lives

    Every card opens in OpenCharts, with its own history.

  • Sources, kept

    What a draft was built from travels with the draft.

The TheoMate desktop app's Work view: nine artifacts as cards — documents, notes, a board, a deck, a sheet and a flowchart — filtered by type.

One request, start to finish

The thread, andthe thing it made.

A request opens as a conversation with the artifact beside it: what you asked, what Theo did, which workspace notes it was allowed to read, and the draft you can edit in place. The state line across the top is the one the desk shows from across the room.

  • Received, working, ready

    Three states with their times, never merged into one word.

  • The sources it read

    The workspace notes you granted access to, listed by name.

  • Editable in place

    Change the draft here; the history keeps what changed.

The TheoMate desktop app: a conversation about a launch brief on the left, the drafted document open on the right, the request's state across the top.

Appearance

Light, or dark.

One layout, two surfaces, the same single accent. The app follows the system unless you tell it otherwise.

Paper surfaces, ink type, one neon action.

The band, in the app

It reports the hardware.It cannot overrule it.

One page for the object on your wrist: what it is connected through, what each haptic means, and whether the microphone is off. When the mechanical lockout is engaged the app shows it as a fact — software can remove capture permission, never grant it.

  • A mechanical lockout

    A slide on the cap withdraws microphone power. This window can only report it.

  • Private audio

    Headphones only. Without them the answer waits on a screen.

  • Through your phone

    The band has no connection of its own, by design.

Red means the microphone is off.

The agents

Any agent can ask.Only you approve.

One page for the runtimes your workspace can reach: which one is connected, what it is permitted to touch, and where its work goes. The rule does not change with the runtime. A request can come from anywhere — and anything that sends, spends or commits is designed to stop here, on a screen you trust.

  • Which runtime is connected

    Named, with what it is allowed to reach. Never a silent switch.

  • The same rule, every runtime

    What sends, spends or commits waits for a person. No exceptions earned by confidence.

  • One workspace underneath

    Whatever did the work, the result is an OpenCharts object where you already keep things.

The TheoMate desktop app's Agents page: seven runtimes in a table giving how each one connects, what it is permitted to do and whether it is connected — Codex and Claude Code connected through OpenCharts, the rest not connected — under the line “A request can come from anywhere. Approval happens here.” Beneath it, four model families as plain chips.

Two editions

One app, in two places.

Everything the band and the desk start arrives here: the notes, the drafts, the boards, and the decisions that wait for you. On your phone when you're out. On your desktop when you're back.

Desktop edition TheoMate for desktop

Where the work is finished.

One window over your OpenCharts workspace: every request Theo has taken, what it made of it, and what still needs a decision.

  • Today

    What is ready, what is next, and the one thing that needs you. Never a feed.

  • Review and approve

    The draft beside what it was made from. A band press can request; only a screen like this can say yes.

  • Your workspace

    Notes, boards, documents, sheets and decks are OpenCharts objects. Nothing lives in a second place.

  • The same state as the desk

    What the face shows from across the room is what the window shows up close. The two never disagree.

Mobile edition TheoMate for phone

The way out, and the way to say yes.

The band speaks through your phone, so this is where a request first lands, where received becomes done, and where anything consequential waits for a tap.

  • Received, then done

    One pulse on the wrist means accepted, not finished. The phone is where you watch it finish.

  • Needs you

    Anything that sends, spends or commits waits here for you. Never an automatic send.

  • The band's way out

    The band carries no connection of its own; your phone does the talking. Dependent by design.

  • Capture, bounded

    Hold, speak, release — and watch the words arrive. A proposed thirty-second maximum, not an archive.

The details, quietly.

The first hundred

A hundred places.Then never again.

The first hundred TheoMates are a closed edition. Each one carries its number and its owner's name cut into the case, and a refundable dollar is what holds one of those numbers. Places are given out in the order they are taken, so the only thing that decides your number is when you decide.

Cut into the case

No./ 100

Your number, out of one hundred.

One hundred numbers in the whole edition. One of them can have your name under it.

The edition number and the name of the person holding it, etched where the case meets the wrist. It is struck once. There is no second run of a first hundred.

  1. 01

    Your number, cut into the case

    One of a hundred cases carrying its edition number and your name. Whoever arrives at a hundred and one cannot buy their way into that, at any price.

  2. 02

    Founder pricing, held for you

    Your place carries a price below launch, applied the day there is a launch price to be below. You are never asked to guess at a number now.

  3. 03

    A strap that is never restocked

    A strap and a finish drawn for the first hundred and retired the day they go out. They do not come back in a later colourway.

  4. 04

    Called first, in the order you reserved

    When there is something to buy, the hundred hear before the list, in the order the places were taken. Reservations for both objects are called before singles.

This is what we are working toward rather than a guarantee. There is no final price and no date yet, and your deposit comes back in one press for as long as that stays true.

Take a number.

One dollar for one object, five for both. Refundable in one press, for any reason or none.

What would your number be for?

No deposit, and you still hear from us. You just will not be one of the hundred.

  • Not a purchase. The deposit holds your place. It is not payment toward a price.
  • Not locked in. One press gives it back, any time, and the only thing you give up is the place.

Refundable in full, any time, without a reason. You do it yourself, in one press. Manage or refund a reservation or read the reservation terms.

Why now. Numbers are assigned in the order they are reserved. Waiting costs you nothing except a lower number, and reserving costs you nothing you cannot take straight back.

What it will never do.

  • Listen when you have not asked. Capture is a deliberate hold, every time.
  • Track your body. There is no medical or fitness sensing in this product.
  • Carry your location or your money. Maps and payments stay on your phone.
  • Approve anything from your wrist. The band can request; only you can authorise.
