Map your goals.
Design your life.
A goal tracker built on a different premise: goals are not tasks. They get decomposed, deferred, revisited, sometimes outgrown. Clearpaths gives that mess a shape.
Free during beta. No credit card required.
Planning and execution are different jobs.
Most goal tools cram both onto one screen, so neither gets done well. Clearpaths gives each its own surface — and lets them be opposite.
See the whole. Decide the shape.
Maximal — every goal, every blocker, every deferred branch, every horizon. Hierarchy, dependencies, options, edge cases. The strategic surface.
Best done with deliberation — or in conversation with Claude via the MCP server.
Do the next thing.
Minimal — only what's actionable now. Deferred branches hidden. No dependencies to reason about. No horizons to scan. Just the leaves you can act on.
Friction approaches zero. You're not choosing — you're doing.
Hierarchy + real dependencies
Not a flat list. Goals nest as deep as you need, and one goal can block another with real-world prerequisites — with cycle detection, because circular dependencies are impossible, not edge cases.
Your framework, not ours
Bring OKR, EOS Rocks, 12 Week Year, 7 Habits, or just life areas. Tiers and areas are yours to rename, reorder, simplify. The taxonomy matches your mental model.
Reflection over metrics
Plain-text decision journals on every goal. No percentages, no streaks, no leaderboards. Just why — the reasoning behind completing, deferring, or cancelling.
Talk to your goals.
Building a useful goal tree is real work — and historically the reason most people give up partway through. Clearpaths ships with a REST API and an MCP server.
Claude (or any AI agent) can read your goal tree, draft decompositions for you to edit, add blockers as you mention them, and capture progress notes as you think out loud. Planning becomes a conversation.
REST API at app.clearpaths.pro/api · MCP server open-source at phil-base/clearpaths-mcp
Why Clearpaths?
Built for people who take their goals seriously enough to spend 30 minutes setting up areas and tiers. Used for cascading career plans, balancing life areas, scaling small businesses, navigating transitions.
- A real lifecycle: active, deferred, cancelled, completed — recorded, never erased
- Chapters frame life as narrative — past chapters become immutable artifacts
- Six views of the same data — list, grid, mind map, timeline, actions, report
- Deferring as a first-class action — set aside without losing
