Daymetric is a task scheduler for macOS and iOS made by Pilot AI Systems. This page describes exactly what the app stores, where it goes, and how to get rid of it. It is written to be checked against the software rather than to cover us, so it is specific.

Your files

Your tasks live in a folder of markdown files on your own device: todos.md, memory.md, done.md, ideas.md, briefing.md and learned.md.

On the Mac, Daymetric keeps that folder at ~/scheduler and nowhere else. If you have pointed it somewhere of your own with a symlink — into iCloud Drive, Dropbox or anywhere else — whatever syncs that location is between you and them. We are not a party to it and we cannot see it.

On iPhone, the folder is the app's own Documents/scheduler, which the Files app shows as On My iPhone › Daymetric.

There is no analytics SDK, no crash reporter, no advertising identifier and no third-party tracker in either app. We do not collect usage data.

Signed out

Using Daymetric takes an account: the fourteen-day trial and any subscription belong to a person, not to a machine. Signed out, the app is a reader. It opens, shows your day and your log, and exports everything, but it writes nothing, and none of your task data reaches our servers.

The Mac app also asks our server from time to time whether a newer version of itself exists. That request carries no account and nothing from your files; like any request on the web, it shows our server your IP address and the app's version.

When you sign in

Signing in starts your trial and syncs your files between your Mac and your phone through our server. Sync comes with being signed in: there is no signed-in mode that keeps your files off the server. We store the following.

• Who you are. The account identifier Apple or Google gives us, your email address, and your name if the provider supplies one. We store an email address only when the provider tells us it has been verified.
• Your six markdown files, verbatim. Their full text, the revision number, and when each was last changed. Mac sync also stores a separate identity manifest: opaque block identifiers, short content hashes, file revisions and completion/reopen counters. This keeps a task's identity through edits without adding metadata to your Markdown.
• Your plan. When your trial started, whether you subscribe or paid once, which plan, when it renews or ends, and the reference numbers Stripe or Apple give us for your payment. Card details go to Stripe or Apple and never reach us.
• Coworkers, if you use them. Your invite code, the accounts you have linked with, and each task you hand to a coworker or receive from one: its title, project, effort, priority and note, and where it stands. The person on the other end sees the task.
• A purchase made before you signed in. If you pay once through our website, we keep the email you paid with and the checkout reference, so the purchase can attach to the account you sign in with.
• Sign-in housekeeping. When the account was created, when you last signed in, a counter used to invalidate sessions when you sign out, and (for Apple sign-in) a token we keep solely so we can tell Apple to revoke access when you delete your account.

Your task content is stored as plain text

This is the part worth reading twice. Synced files are stored on our server as ordinary text. They are not end-to-end encrypted. Traffic is encrypted in transit over HTTPS, and the database is encrypted at rest by our hosting provider, but Pilot AI Systems holds the keys to that database and could technically read your tasks.

Practically: we do not read them, and nothing in the product mines or analyses them. But we are not in a position to promise we cannot, so we are not going to say that. If your tasks contain things you would not put in a document on someone else's server, do not sign in. Signed out, Daymetric still reads the folder and shows your day; it just will not write to it, and nothing leaves your device.

Who else touches it

• Apple and Google handle sign-in. They see that you signed in to Daymetric. We receive an account identifier and, where verified, your email.
• Stripe processes payments made on the Mac or on our website, and Apple processes any purchase made in the iPhone app. They receive your payment details; we receive a reference and the state of your plan.
• Our hosting provider runs the server and database that store synced files.
• Apple operates iCloud Drive if you keep your folder there.
• The agents you connect. Claude, Codex or Cursor read and write your files through Daymetric on your own Mac. What an agent then sends to its own provider is between you and that provider; we are not a party to it.

That is the complete list. We do not sell data, we do not share it for advertising, and there is no analytics vendor in the stack.

Deleting your account

In the app, open the account panel (Settings on the Mac, Setup on iPhone) and choose to delete your account. It takes two taps and does not require emailing anyone.

Deleting removes your account row, every synced file, your coworker links and the tasks you handed off or received, in the same operation. If you signed in with Apple, we also tell Apple to revoke the token. Deletion is immediate and is not recoverable by us. Stripe and Apple keep their own records of payments, as the law requires them to, and a purchase made through our website keeps its email and checkout reference as the record of what was bought.

The markdown files on your own devices are yours and are left exactly where they are. Delete the folder yourself if you want them gone. On the Mac, Daymetric also keeps a local index of that folder so it can show what changed and when — a cache, not your data, but it does hold a copy of your task text — at ~/Library/Application Support/Daymetric/vaults; delete that too if you want that cached copy gone.

Sync also keeps the last agreed copy of each file in the app's Application Support directory, under Daymetric/sync-bases, so concurrent edits can be merged safely. On the Mac, remove that directory and Daymetric/sync-state.json to clear those cached copies. Deleting the iPhone app removes its local copies.

Children

Daymetric is a productivity tool for adults. It is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that affects what we store or who can see it, we will update the date at the top and note the change in the app's release notes.
