How Goalie works

The Goalie command catalog

What can I ask Goalie?

Tap the mic (or type) and say any of these. Goalie handles the boring parts — finding the right goal, updating the right milestone, logging the right reflection — so you can stay in the work.

Start something new

Turn a rough thought into a fully-formed goal with milestones and next steps.

  • Create a goal from a description

    • Hey Goalie, help me track my job applications and interviews
    • I want to train for a half marathon in six months
    • Track my writing practice — one essay a week
  • Add a specific milestone

    • Add a milestone to my job hunt goal: prep behavioural stories
    • On the marathon goal, add a milestone: hit 10 miles in one run
  • Add a task under a goal

    • Add a task to my Spanish goal: finish unit 4 by Friday
    • New task on the launch goal — email three beta users

Change what you already have

Rename, reprioritize, or reshape any goal, milestone, or task.

  • Rename a goal

    • Rename my job hunt goal to Senior PM search
    • Change the title of my running goal to 10k in April
  • Update a goal's why, target date, priority, or status

    • Push the target date on my marathon goal to November 1
    • Mark the Spanish goal as high priority
    • Set my writing goal to paused
  • Edit your last check-in or reflection

    • Edit the reflection I just wrote — add that I felt drained
    • In my check-in today, change tomorrow's priority to draft the proposal

Clear things out

Bulk operations for when a plan needs a reset.

  • Remove all milestones on a goal

    • Remove all milestones on my job hunt goal
    • Clear the milestones under my writing goal and add: publish one essay a month

    Destructive commands ask for a one-tap confirmation before running.

  • Remove one milestone or task by name

    • On the marathon goal, remove the milestone: hit 5 miles
    • Delete the task 'email recruiter' from my job hunt
  • Mark a milestone or task complete

    • Mark 'polish resume' complete
    • The 10k run milestone is done

Reflect and log wins

Capture what happened while it's fresh.

  • Log a win, setback, breakthrough, or lesson

    • Log a win on my job hunt — I got a callback from Stripe
    • On my writing goal, log a lesson: mornings work better than nights
  • Turn a note into a reflection under a specific goal

    • Add a setback to the marathon goal: shin pain slowed me down this week

Ask for coaching

Goalie will look at the goal and tell you what's missing.

  • Ask what you're missing

    • Hey Goalie, is there anything I'm missing on my job hunt?
    • Anything you'd suggest for the marathon plan?
    • Look at all my goals — where am I under-planned?
  • Suggest next actions for this week

    • What should I focus on this week for the launch goal?
    • Give me three next actions for Spanish
