SkyReachers
Productivity
SkyReachers uses AI to help people set SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, related, timebound) life goals, which research shows are more likely to be achieved. Furthermore, our platform breaks down these large goals into visual roadmaps of actionable, achievable steps whilst providing suggestions for daily tasks. "For that goal you have 5 years away, we'll tell you what you can do today."
Planning is only half the equation for success, however. SkyReachers also uses AI to hold our users accountable to progress in the form of our AI companion - Skye. Skye will check in daily with users through either text or a call and can help them schedule daily progress into busy lives. Skye can also draft updates for our users, which lead into the last major tenet of SkyReachers as a platform.
SkyReachers is community driven. With an social media layer on the platform, our users will fill up their roadmaps with updates whilst being able to follow the journeys of their peers. By seeing the roadmaps of others on similar journeys, users can be both inspired and feel some social pressure to continue moving forward.
