Overview
Gravitas is a productivity app that puts note taking and a calendar in the same place. Write in markdown, plan your day, and (hopefully) build a habit of writing things down along the way.
My role
I designed the whole app, end to end. The goal was simple: note taking should feel effortless, so the classic markdown formatting is all there, but it stays out of your way. Next to it sits a dedicated calendar with events and reminders, and dictation for the moments when typing just isn't an option.
Then came the fun part. To nudge people into writing more, I added a bit of gamification: a note streak that grows every day you write, and milestones to celebrate along the way. Small rewards, but they make coming back feel good.
Outcomes
- Designed a markdown note editor with the classic formatting features
- Combined notes with a dedicated calendar, events and reminders
- Added dictation for taking notes without a keyboard
- Created a note streak and milestones to keep people writing
