How do you eat a whale?
One bite at a time.
A habit tracker for everything you've already collected.
Daily, weekly, or every 30 days. Frequency matters.
Get StartedThe course you bought in March.
The lessons, the app, the books, the gear. You chose all of it. EatAWhale keeps every piece in rotation, so the ones you invested in don't go quiet.
Everyone has more interests than time
Piano lessons. Online courses. Fitness programs. Magazine subscriptions. Language apps. The book on your nightstand. You care about all of them. The trouble isn't motivation. It's that they don't all fit on the same shelf.
They all matter, but not equally
Some you want to touch every day. Some every couple of weeks. Some are seasonal, alive in spring and quiet in winter. Treating them the same is how the ones you love most get buried.
Set the cadence that fits
Daily, every 3 days, weekly, every other week, monthly, or anything in between. EatAWhale holds each interest to its own rhythm, so a daily practice and a monthly hobby don't compete for the same shelf.
Take a bite when one calls
A quick check-in keeps an interest fresh. The ones you tend stay vibrant. The ones you don't quietly fade, until you're ready to bring them back.
Watch the order shift
Neglected interests surface to the top. Healthy ones step out of the way. Over time, you see what you really care about, without losing the picture.
It's a steady look, not a finish line
There's nothing to complete. Just an honest, balanced view of the things you don't want to let slip.
From card to site in one tap.
Most interests live somewhere on the web. The online learning website, a YouTube tutorial, a blog. Save the URL with the interest and the card opens it in a new tab. A quick jump straight to that part of your passion. On mobile, if the destination has a native app, the link opens there instead of a browser tab.
One interest, many parts.
Three Online Piano Websites, Two Sheet Music Libraries, the newsletter or magazine subscription, track every part of a passion on its own rhythm, all in one place.
↕Most overdue at top, sorted by urgency
One list, many worlds
The dashboard is one way to see your interests. EatAWhale can also draw them as living worlds. The same data, reimagined.
Stars view
A night sky of everything you care about
Every interest is a star. The ones you feed shine bright and breathe slowly. The ones drifting away flicker, then go still and dim. Star size is your lifetime of bites.
Tap a star.
Reef view
A reef that lives on your attention
Interests swim as fish. Hungry ones patrol the surface, healthy ones cruise mid-water, and neglected ones sink into a nap on the seabed. Nothing dies. One bite wakes it.
Tunes view
A tune performed one bite at a time
Each check-in plays the next phrase of a daily mystery piece on a real score, in the color of the interest that earned it. Finish the day, name the tune. Completed pieces shelve in your Songbook.
Today's tune: ??? · 5 of 7 phrases
A different view, every day you visit.
EatAWhale's Feed greets you each visit with hand-curated photography paired to your interests. New imagery rotates daily. Take a quick bite while you're there, or just let it brighten the morning.

How it works: the Feed picks your most overdue interests first, pairs each with a wholesome photo (or occasionally a playful compliment), and locks the deck for the session, so reloading doesn't shuffle. Bitten interests drop out of tomorrow's deck. Free for everyone

NewEach bite plays the next phrase of a daily mystery piece, drawn from a catalog of 105 public-domain works. Finish the day to name the tune. The Tunes view stages it all as a score room, and the Songbook keeps every piece you complete, with favorites and links to hear full recordings.
The Reef
NewA new layout where your interests swim as fish. Depth tells you who needs you: hungry fish patrol the surface while rested ones nap on the seabed, and a tap drops a pellet to feed one. Press Today and a whale glides through to celebrate your day.
