From the maker

Counting days makes one missed day cost everything you built, and that thought is what turns one bad night into a bad week. So it counts weeks, and the weeks you kept stay kept. It keeps what you said you would do, in your words, and asks on the day whether it happened.

After the free weeks there is no free version of the coach. That is a design decision rather than a pricing one: a free tier makes your attention the thing I have to win.

If you want encouragement, this is the wrong product. If you want a standard held, it holds one.

Made Forvel

Why one thing

Starting is easy. Keeping it going past week two is the whole problem. So Forvel is not a task manager and does not keep your projects. It holds one thing at a time, something to start or something to stop, with what, when and how often in your own sentence.

The coach asks more than it tells, and it holds you to that one thing. When the plan needs to change, you talk it through and the plan changes. You do not add a second thing.

Why weeks

A week is long enough to have a bad day inside it. Your plan has a target, four days out of seven or whatever you set, and when you reach it the week is kept. A missed day does not count, and it never takes a rep away.

It also does not pretend to know when you will be done. How long a habit takes varies a great deal from person to person, so Forvel keeps the week you planned rather than a date. The habit guide has the numbers.

Who makes it

Forvel is made by Matyáš Herrmann, who wrote the letter above. It is a small company in Prague and, in practice, one person: the same person writes the software, runs the server and answers the email. There is no team and no support desk. The imprint has the legal details.

The coach’s replies are not written by that person. Every reply is written by an AI model, and the privacy policy names the company that runs it. It is a coach, not a therapist or a doctor.
