Deadlinewatch
Start free

One product. One number.

Nothing to decode.

Deadlinewatch is a specialized tool for professionals and, as such, no features are held back for higher plans. None can be taken away without compromising the mission. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry made the same analogy about the plane in “The Tool”, a chapter of Wind, Sand and Stars (1939):

Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

You get the whole tool, built as one piece for one job. More on what was left out, and why.

The monthly price is far below what it costs to miss a single deadline.

What's included? Everything.

FAQ.

Anything else, the contact form is in the footer. I reply personally.

Is there a team or business plan?

No, there isn't. The tool best suits a single user, in its current form. If you would like to request it as a feature, let me know through the contact form.

What happens after the 14-day trial?

If you've added a card, you're billed for the first month. If you haven't, the subscription auto-cancels. No silent rollover. Note that after roughly 60 days the account and all its data are permanently deleted.

Is there a limit on how many deadlines I can track?

One account holds up to 1,000 active deadlines, which is well beyond what one person carries. Completed deadlines and anything On Hold do not count towards the quota, so finishing something or setting it aside frees room straight away. Recurring series are created up to 2 years in advance.

What happens to my data if the trial ends without a card?

Nothing disappears that day. The account turns read-only for 30 days, and subscribing in that window picks up right where you left off. After that there are 30 more days where export still works, then the data is permanently deleted.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel anytime from your account. No retention popup, no chat queue, no "here are seven reasons you should stay." After you cancel, you keep read-only access for 30 days. Then there are 30 more days where you can still export your data. After that, it is permanently deleted.

Can I pay annually?

Yes. $278 a year, 20% off.

What happens to my data if I leave?

It's yours until it is gone, and you have roughly 60 days. The account stays read-only for 30 days, then there are 30 more where export still works, then the account and its data are permanently deleted. CSV export is available from the account page at any time, covering active, completed, and on-hold deadlines with their streams and notes. You can also export the completed deadlines on their own, if a record of finished work is what you are after.

Where does my data live?

Deadlinewatch is designed, run, and hosted in North America, in the United States and Canada. Each account is isolated at the database level, so one person's deadlines are never visible to another. Stripe holds the card details, and Deadlinewatch keeps only a customer reference. Nothing you enter is sent to a language model. Your data is copied to an off-site backup every night. For more detail, see the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Where is Deadlinewatch available?

Deadlinewatch is available to customers over 18 years of age in the United States and Canada. Other regions aren't currently supported. The details are in the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Fourteen days, no card, every feature.

The trial is the full product, not a demo. Your own deadlines, your own data, every feature from day one.
