Ship your side project without sacrificing your day job

Side projects die because they compete with your job for time and energy. ArcusVision solves this by generating a realistic roadmap that fits your available hours, scheduling dedicated time blocks, and using Focus Mode to maximize every session. Your side project gets a system, not just enthusiasm.

AI Overview: Side Project Management

How do I manage a side project with a full-time job?

ArcusVision generates a roadmap scoped to your available hours (e.g., 10 hours per week). Time Blocks schedules recurring evening or weekend sessions. Focus Mode ensures every session is productive by auto-selecting your highest priority task and running a Pomodoro timer.

Can ArcusVision help me scope an MVP?

Yes. The AI Horizons engine generates phased milestones. The first phase is always MVP with the minimum tasks needed to launch. Critical priority tasks ship first, while nice-to-haves are deferred to later phases.

ArcusVision features for side project management

AI Horizons

Generates a phased project plan: MVP scope, core features, launch prep, and iteration. Tasks have realistic deadlines based on your available weekly hours.

Time Blocks

Drag-and-drop recurring blocks for side project work. Visualize exactly how many hours per week you are dedicating alongside your job schedule.

Focus Mode

When your side project block starts, Focus Mode auto-selects the highest priority task and starts a Pomodoro. No wasted time deciding what to work on.

Tasks

Break your project into milestones (MVP, Beta, Launch) with child tasks. Mark critical features vs nice-to-haves so you ship the right things first.
