A deadline-tracking instrument, built to do one thing completely.

Click New deadline on your dashboard, or press the n key. Give it a name and a due date, and it shows up in your list right away.

The dashboard is your working list, sorted by due date with anything you pin kept on top. The Curve/Horizon view shows the next twelve weeks as a curve and a heatmap, so you can see where the busy stretches build up before they arrive.

A stream is a simple group with a color, like a client, a project, or an area of work. Assign one to a deadline and you can filter your list down to just that group. You can see streams and filtering in action on the demo.

No. Add your first deadline and you are working. Streams, reminders, and the Curve/Horizon are there when you want them, not required to begin.

Yes. The CSV import on your account page reads a file of deadlines, including the stream for each one, so you can move an existing list over in one go.

No. Reminders are off until you turn them on, so you decide which deadlines are worth an alert. Switch on Email me on a deadline to get an email, and set the timing in your account settings.

Email me sends an email at the schedule you set in settings, and it reaches you even when the app is closed. A Pop-up is an on-screen browser notification, and it only appears while you have Deadlinewatch open in a tab. Both controls sit on each deadline in the demo.

Browser pop-ups only fire while a Deadlinewatch tab is open and you have allowed notifications for the site. If the tab was closed during the reminder window, nothing shows. For an alert that reaches you when the app is closed, use Email me instead.

Up to 30 days before the due date. You can set more than one lead time on a single deadline, for example a week before and again the day before.

First, confirm Email me is on for that deadline, since reminders are off by default. Then check that reminders are enabled in your account settings, and look in your spam folder for mail from noreply@deadlinewatch.com. Adding that address to your contacts keeps reminders out of spam.

The order stays yours. Deadlines sort by due date, and pinning lifts one to the top, but nothing reshuffles on its own from a hidden score. What you see is days until due, which is honest and easy to check. See how the list orders on the demo.

It pins the deadline to a section at the top of your dashboard, above Overdue and Upcoming. Use it for the few that need to stay in sight. The demo shows the pinned section in place.

No. Snooze sets it aside as a dimmed row so it stops pulling your attention, and it returns on the date you choose. The due date does not change. You can try snoozing a card on the demo.

Snooze defers your attention without changing when the work is due. Moving the date actually reschedules the deadline. Use Snooze to quiet something for now, and Move date when the real deadline shifts. Both are shown on the demo.

Yes. On the new deadline form, open Repeats and pick weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. You can set a date for it to stop, or leave it open-ended. Each occurrence is its own deadline, so you complete, snooze, or edit one without touching the rest.

The next occurrence always appears on schedule, whether or not you finished the one before it. A date you let pass stays in your list as overdue, so a missed deadline is never quietly dropped. Complete it or remove it whenever you are ready, and the series keeps moving forward.

Use streams. Each deadline belongs to one stream, so pick the grouping that matters most to you, like the client or the project. You can filter your dashboard to a single stream at a time. The demo lets you filter a live board by stream.

No. The 14-day trial needs no card. If you do not add one by the end, the trial just ends with no charge and no surprise billing.

If you have added a card, your subscription begins. If you have not, the account turns read-only and your data stays in place while you decide.

Cancel anytime from your account page. You keep full access until the end of the period you have paid for, then the account turns read-only. There is no cancellation fee.

You get 30 days of read-only access, then another 30 days where you can still export, then the data is removed. You can download a full copy of your deadlines at any point before that.

Open your account page and click Download CSV. The file includes every deadline with its stream, subtasks, and notes. Your data is yours to take.

No. There is one plan with every feature, plus the 14-day no-card trial so you can try it first. See pricing for the details.

In Canada, in a database hosted in Montreal. Each account is isolated at the database level, so one person’s deadlines are never visible to another.

No. Stripe handles payments and holds your card details. We keep only a customer reference and your subscription status.

Never. The tool tracks your deadlines and reminds you. It never sends anything to the people you owe work to. That stays entirely in your hands.

You sign in with Google, with GitHub, or with a magic link sent to your email. There is no password to store or lose.

From your account page, open Delete my account and confirm. Billing stops at once, and after a short grace period everything is permanently removed.
