Time to Leave tells you when to go. It has no idea what happens after you do.

Time to Leave is your iPhone’s Calendar alert. It fires once, on the way out the door.

thereby’s whole product is the part after you leave: the stairs, the missed light, the slow patch, the moment the plan stops matching reality and you can still do something about it.

Tell it where you’re going and when you need to be there. From then on thereby gives you one number: how much time you have to spare, updated the whole way.

Am I still okay?

Time blindness. The bus that costs you twenty minutes if you miss it by three. School pickup. Or leaving absurdly early because you can’t tell whether you’re still on schedule.

The common problem isn’t knowing when to leave. It’s knowing, right now, whether you’re still going to make it.

Along the way

thereby watches your pace while you walk, bike, or drive, and warns you when your margin starts disappearing — while changing something can still help.

It keeps working with your phone locked, shows the same live margin on your Apple Watch, and can start on its own when you leave. A pace ghost shows exactly how fast you’d need to move to stay on schedule.

No deadline? It can just keep you posted on when you’ll arrive.
