# the personal AI for ADHD brains

> Folk is a personal AI for ADHD that lives in your texts. Capture thoughts instantly, beat task-initiation, get proactive nudges, and let it carry the follow-through. $20/mo.

ADHD makes the gap between knowing and doing enormous: the thought you had vanishes, starting feels impossible, and time blindness eats the day. Folk is a personal AI that lives in your texts and meets you there - capture anything in one message, let folk turn it into action, get nudged at the right moment, and offload the follow-through that usually falls apart.

## What folk handles for you

### frictionless capture

Have a thought? Fire it at folk in a text or voice note from anywhere - an idea, a task, a 'remember this' - and it files it, so it doesn't evaporate the second you look away.

### beat task-initiation

Folk breaks the overwhelming thing into a tiny first step and nudges you to start, then keeps you moving. It externalizes the executive function so the mountain becomes a step.

### time-aware nudges, not a guilt list

Instead of a to-do list you avoid, folk proactively checks in at the right time - reminders that actually land, follow-ups it handles for you, and a gentle daily plan that flexes when your day does.

## Example conversation

**You:** remind me to email the pharmacy ugh i keep forgetting and i need to start my taxes

**folk:** Got both. Pharmacy email - want me to just draft it now so it's one tap? And taxes: that's a big one, so I'll start you with a 10-min step today - gather your W-2 and last year's return. I'll check in at 5.

**You:** yes draft the pharmacy one

**folk:** Drafted and ready to send. Taxes nudge set for 5pm - just the first small step, that's all you have to do.

## FAQ

### How does Folk help with ADHD specifically?

Folk targets the hard parts: instant capture so thoughts don't vanish, breaking tasks into a tiny first step to beat task-initiation, time-aware proactive nudges for time blindness, and carrying the follow-through so it doesn't fall apart.

### Is it going to nag me?

No. Folk's nudges are proactive but in your texts, where you already are, and you set the tone and timing. It's a supportive check-in, not a wall of red overdue tasks.

### Can I just brain-dump to it?

Yes - that's ideal. Send messy thoughts or voice notes anytime and folk organizes them into actions and reminders. Folk Pro is $20/month, with a free tier to start.
