Initiation · Calm · One step · Qaimos

Cross the moment before you start.

First Motion is a single-purpose iPhone companion for the stretch right before a task: when scrolling, switching apps, or overwhelm gets in the way. It offers one small, physical next step at a time—not a planner, habit tracker, or productivity scoreboard.

How it helps

One step

Only what you can do next

You describe what you want to start. First Motion answers with a single concrete action you could do in the next minute—something observable, not a lecture.

Stuck

Smaller when you need it

If a step feels too big, you can ask for a lower-friction version. The tone stays flat and neutral—no motivational theatre.

Voice

Type or dictate

Speak your task with the microphone button when it is easier than typing. Speech runs through Apple’s on-device systems subject to your iOS privacy choices.

Optional hosted AI

Through Qaimos

When you continue past your task description, the app sends that session’s messages over HTTPS to a Qaimos-hosted endpoint so a model can suggest the next micro-step. API keys for the upstream model stay on the server, not in the app binary, for the default configuration.

  • No third-party analytics SDKs in First Motion
  • No streaks, scores, or “productivity” dashboards
  • In-session inactivity handling only—no push nagging

Designed to stay quiet

Cream fields, sage and seafoam accents, generous spacing. The site mirrors the same calm visual language as the app—readable first, decorative second.
