Hey Product Hunt, I'm Mike, founder and CEO of Magicflow! Today I'm launching Magicflow 2.0, a time tracker redesigned from the ground up to help you do more deep work. Deep work is the most valuable time we spend working, it's when we make progress on the hardest problems that drive our companies, side projects and research forwards. But the default modern work day is full of interruptions, meetings and context switching, from Slack notifications while Coding to Emails flooding in while you're in Figma. We desperately need tools that help us manage our precious attention. In 2021, I tried every time tracker out there. But none of them made my work life easier, or more focused. Time tracking has historically been a clunky experience full of manual recategorising, complicated interfaces and a lack of focus on what's important. We've spent the last year iterating with early users, shipping features and refining the interface down to the simplest, most powerful views, helping you understand how you're doing and how you can do better.

So, what’s new? πŸ†• πŸ†• πŸ†•

It's been a busy year! We rebuilt the interface from the ground up, released the app on Windows, and even invented a new UX in the time-tracking space, of post-session coaching using AI to help keep you on track (screenshot 2).

What Magicflow is now

Magicflow is now a next-generation time tracker, subtly infused with AI in the places that matter, focused on helping you control your time like never before, and do more valuable work. It's built for people who care about their work and how well they achieve it and want to be intentional with how they spend their time. People from startups to bigCos alike have been using Magicflow as a daily work assistant. I'm super excited for you to try it!

Comment highlights

YES!!!!! I have tried MagicFlow and it was super easy to get setup. The insights were amazing! WELL DONE Michael! Glad to finally see it out in the wild <3

Got to see some of the seeds of this in the earliest days (Hey Mike!), and am extremely impressed with how far the product has come! Really excited to dive in. Mike is a super thoughtful and talented product creator, and it definitely shows in Magicflow. Great to see this rocketship taking off like this!

I swear I was just thinking of searching for something like this a few days ago to track my time (and was worried about all the search I was gonna make) and bam! :D nice product

Visualizations are awesome and it just works! Helps me make sure I'm zoned in when I need to be.

I've tried many a time tracker over the years and ngl this one looks the most promising. I love the focus on deep work! Obviously tracking what you do goes way beyond what you spend your time on but more so how focused you are, so I'm super excited to see how MagicFlow can help me improve!!

I've been a user of Magicflow for a while and it helps me get into flow! Keep up the great work @michaeljelly πŸš€

Using MagicFlow gave me such a massive productivity boost; i've never seen social features so well done. It feels like a game when I compete against friends :)

Have tried the v1 and the visuals for helping understand how you work throughout the day. As someone who struggles hard to get into deep work, this seems like a great product for me!

As somebody who cannot focus, Magicflow has been a Godsend. Exactly what I needed to minimize distractions and help me get work done. Cannot recommend this enough!

Yoooo this is super dope! I have a lot of problems with getting distracted and controlling my impulse distractions while trying to get in to flow state - to the point where i keep my phone in another room and lock myself in a dark basement to have maximal productivity. Tracking this and getting serious about improving would really help me understand how I can make my flowstates last longer and come more often. Giving this a try ASAP!
