Built for the ADHD Brain

Executive Dysfunction? Start Without Planning.

When executive dysfunction makes every task feel impossible, the last thing you need is another to-do list. TinyRipple gives you three tiny, concrete actions for right now - matched to your energy, not an ideal version of you.

What Is Executive Dysfunction?

Executive dysfunction refers to difficulties with the brain functions that manage planning, initiating tasks, regulating emotions, and adapting to change. These functions - collectively called executive function - are regulated by the prefrontal cortex, which works differently in ADHD brains.

The result: you might know exactly what you need to do, have every intention of doing it, and still be unable to start. It is not a character flaw. It is neurology.

Most productivity apps assume working executive function. They ask you to plan, schedule, prioritise, and track - all of which require exactly the capacity that executive dysfunction impairs. TinyRipple takes a different approach.

Skips initiation entirely

Instead of asking you to plan, TinyRipple just gives you the next tiny move. No initiation required to access your actions.

Adjusts to your state

Executive function varies by hour and day. TinyRipple meets you where you actually are - not where you planned to be.

No shame built in

No streaks to break, no overdue tasks, no guilt. TinyRipple has no memory of yesterday.
