# SharedMinds

> Virtual coworking community for solo founders, developers, designers and creators. Built around one loop: declare what you're going to finish, work alongside others, finish it.

SharedMinds pairs presence-based accountability with a public track record. Three session modes (Solo / 1-on-1 / Group), three durations (25 / 50 / 90 min), and a single outcome question at the end ("did you finish what you declared?"). Free to join.

The marketing site is at `sharedminds.app`. The actual product app is a separate React SPA at `app.sharedminds.app`. Both share one Supabase backend, so creating an account on the marketing site logs you straight into the app.

## How it works (one paragraph)

A user opens the app, declares what they're going to finish in this session (pick from their task list or type it free-form), chooses Solo / 1-on-1 / Group mode, picks a 25/50/90-minute duration, and starts the timer. Group sessions appear in a live community feed; others can see what's being worked on. When the timer ends, the user answers one question: "did you finish?" - yes, partially, or something came up. The outcome is recorded on their public profile.

## Competitive positioning

- vs Focusmate: SharedMinds adds task declaration + outcome reporting + lasting community connections. Focusmate is camera-on pair-coworking only.
- vs Flow Club: SharedMinds adds the declare-to-finish loop and individual track record. Flow Club is group-only with no per-session task accountability.
- vs Asana / Linear / Notion: SharedMinds is not a task manager. Tasks feed the declaration step but otherwise the product is about presence and outcomes.
