The AI buddy that actually
follows up when you
forget to take your vitamin D
it texts you. follows up. refuses to let you forget. yes, even the dumb stuff.
Start chatting immediately ยท Works with Smart Tags ยท set up location-based reminders
turns out you don't suck at life. the stuff we make has helped us, maybe it'll help you too.
we're not going to fix your whole life. we're going to help you wash one friggin' dish, make that dumb appointment, and text them back. here's what we built for that. ๐

Tap a sticker, something happens
Physical NFC stickers. Stick one anywhere, tap your phone, and an automation fires. Works with the Auto tab, Prove It, and Apple Shortcuts.
Shop Smart TagsIt won't let you bail
A separate app we're testing out. The alert won't stop until you walk to a Smart Tag and tap it. The tap is proof you showed up.
Join the beta
Like having someone who actually notices when you go quiet
just ramble at it. it figures out what you're trying to do, adds it to your list, and follows up without being asked. go quiet? it comes looking for you.
your buddy keeps the list. you just live your life.
ramble in chat and things appear here automatically. it organizes them, reminds you, and sorts by context, energy level, or vibe โ so you always know what to tackle next.
The ping that gets you off the couch at exactly the right moment
Set them in the Auto tab: when you arrive, when you leave (it fires on your way out, ~100m off), or when you tap a Smart Tag. Then Shelpful nudges you โ right when it matters.
Automations are built in the Auto tab โ tap to set them up.
You probably found us on Instagram or TikTok
That tip you stumbled on? It came from Sharon โ co-founder of shelpful, who's been sharing ADHD life-hacks on TikTok and Instagram way before this app existed. This is the product those videos built: the AI app, smart tags, and prove it.
Here's what the community keeps coming back to.
Take these with you โ free stuff from the community
Tap a sticker. Something helpful happens.
Physical NFC stickers you stick anywhere โ the meds, the curling iron, the front door. Tap your phone to fire an automation in the Auto tab, Prove It, or Apple Shortcuts.
Evil accountability.
move your tushy or it won't stop. ๐
fire an alert. it re-fires every 3 minutes with no snooze until you get up and physically tap a Smart Tag. the tap is proof. no photo, no video, no lying to yourself.
Smart Tag holders skip the beta queue โ use code PROVEIT for $15 off tags.
it talks like a friend. not a wellness app.
lowercase. a little sweary-adjacent. it knows when to push and when to just say "hey, that's hard โ let's just do the tiny version." no streaks. no shame spiral. just someone in your corner who notices.
Meet your buddy โ freewash one friggin' dish. that's it.
the bare minimum is still forward motion. you don't have to feel inspired.
showing up is enough. โกฬ
Start with one tiny thing
the word is getting out
"Sam Altman's venture fund invests $3M in startup using humans and AI to keep people on task."
Read the story โTurns out people like being gently nagged
"I cried because for the first time, I had felt so seen. It suggested 'clean 3 expired things from the fridge' โ which is quite literally an ongoing battle for me."
"My AI buddy is sassy, drops a few cuss words, and somehow knows exactly how to push me in just the right way."
"The chatbot in this app is the best AI bot I've used in any application โ great ideas, tactful nudges, and just the right amount of celebration."
"It helped me remember I volunteered to take in donuts to my kids school this morning, which I had already forgot I was supposed to do."
"I have stopped doom scrolling with the help of shelpful reminding me to get off those apps โ the only notifications that come through are from shelpful."
"I feel like I have a friend in my corner who eases the demands on my memory and executive function โ so I can stop spinning my wheels and start getting things done."
"I absolutely love the Shelpful app. It's so cute and funny and easy to use. I love that I can set the tone of the messages and name my AI."
"Shelpful really helps me capture tasks, goals, and habits on the fly. It reminds me and keeps after me to stay on track."
