LockIN launches on Kickstarter

LockIN by One Thing Club: One task. Full focus. Real progress.

  • My Why cardThe reason behind the task, always in view
  • Copper knobSlide it from 0 to 100%
  • Cube timerRoll it once. 25:00 begins.

Your to-do list isn't the problem. Starting is.

When every task shares a screen with every distraction, the hard one never starts. LockIN puts one task on your desk, where you can see it from across the room.

Your turn.

Write a task, roll the cube, then slide the knob all the way to 100%. That small, physical slide is the whole point.

Slide the knob all the way to 100% and watch the card flip

Drag the copper knob, or use the arrow keys.

Roll the cube once and 25:00 starts counting down. Tip it screen-up to pause.

One desk. Six time zones.

What is LockIN?

LockIN is a desk focus system by One Thing Club. It turns an overflowing to-do list into one clear task you can see, time and finish: you plan on a decision-matrix board, commit to one task card, time a 25-minute sprint on a cube timer, and slide a copper knob from 0 to 100% as you make progress.

Who makes LockIN?

LockIN is made by One Thing Club, a small crew working together from Malaysia, Germany, Australia, Argentina, Nepal and India.

What comes in the LockIN set?

A stitched leather folio that stands up as an A-frame, a decision-matrix planning board (clear acrylic or whiteboard), a task board with a magnetic copper slider and a 0–100% track, clear card sleeves with TO DO, SMART and MY WHY refill decks, a cube Pomodoro timer with a dot-matrix display and a protective sleeve, and magnetic dry-erase markers.

When does the Kickstarter campaign launch?

We're planning to launch soon. Join the list and we'll email you the moment it's live. Early-bird spots are limited.

What is Kickstarter? Do I pay now?

Kickstarter lets people back a product before it's made. You pledge on launch day, and you're only charged if the campaign reaches its goal when it ends. If it doesn't, nobody pays. How Kickstarter works, and why we chose it.

How much will LockIN cost?

We'll announce final pricing at launch. Early-bird backers will get up to 40% off the expected retail price.

What is the €1 VIP reservation?

After you join the list, you can reserve a VIP spot for €1. VIPs get our lowest price, 50% off retail, held for them after launch through a private Kickstarter link. The €1 is refundable anytime. Read the VIP terms.

How does the decision matrix work?

The matrix splits tasks into four boxes: urgent or not, important or not. Start with what's important, schedule what's important but not urgent, and limit or drop the rest. It's sometimes called the Eisenhower matrix.

Are the cards reusable?

Yes. A paper template sits inside each clear sleeve, and you write on the sleeve with the dry-erase marker. Wipe it clean with the built-in eraser and reuse it. Refill decks of templates are included.

Which planning board will I get?

The decision matrix comes in two options: clear laser-cut acrylic or whiteboard. The campaign's reward tiers will show what each one includes.

Where do you ship?

We'll confirm shipping regions and estimated delivery dates on the Kickstarter page before launch.
