Chapter I · Time Machine In development

Clock-ins that happen by themselves.

Time, staff and app management for hourly teams, priced for the smallest shop on the block.

  • Beacon clock-inA plug-in USB beacon by the door. Phones notice it and suggest a one-tap clock-in, which cuts forgotten punches and buddy punching.
  • Break complianceAutomatic reminders and protected break windows, documented for California labor law.
  • Portable onboardingW-4 and I-9 done once in the app. The profile follows the employee to their next Time Machine employer.

TheRealTimeMachine.com

A glowing saucer-shaped time machine with a cat in goggles at the controls, hovering over a landscape of portals to a future city, dinosaurs, a castle and the pyramids.
The machine. Every era, one dashboard.
A farming game screen at golden hour: a red barn, a farmhouse, a greenhouse, raised beds of sunflowers and lettuce, cows in a pasture and a pond with a waterfall, while a farmer waters the crops.
Every plot, pond and pasture does a job.

Chapter II · Permaculture Coming soon

A farming game where the systems are real.

Build an Earthship-style homestead, run a greenhouse, raise chickens and sell at market. Compost, water capture and soil health feed each other, the way they do on a working farm. It plays like a game first.

Chapter III · Dispensary Manager In pilot

Your store, in plain answers.

A plugin that connects an AI assistant to the systems a dispensary already runs. Managers ask plain questions and get answers from their own store data. It's in daily use at a working dispensary.

  • Deals that firePromotions built so they discount at the register.
  • Daily deal reportsWhat moved yesterday, what didn't, what to change.
  • Sales answersSell-through, slow movers and top brands from your own POS.
  • Store memoryNotes stay per store, so the assistant picks up where it left off.

Everything free. Nothing gated.

No email, no checkout. Copy what you need. The three you picked up are stamped.

Prompt · scheduling

Break schedule check

You're helping me schedule an hourly team in California. Here is next week's schedule: [paste it].
For every shift, list the meal and rest breaks it needs, flag any break that would land too late, and suggest a fixed break time.
Give me a table I can print for the floor. If you're unsure about a rule, say so instead of guessing.

Prompt · automation

Find the task to automate first

I run a small business. Here are rough notes on everything I did at work this week: [paste].
Group them into tasks I repeat. For each, estimate how often it happens and how long it takes, then rank the top three to automate.
For the winner, describe the simplest version: what starts it, what it does, and whether a spreadsheet, a Claude prompt or an app should run it.

Prompt · retail

Morning deal report

Here is yesterday's sales export from my point of sale: [paste or attach].
For every product that was on a deal, compare units sold against its normal daily average.
Tell me which deals moved product, which did nothing, and which may not have fired at the register (full-price sales during the deal window). End with three changes to make today.

Prompt · websites

Brief before you build

Interview me one question at a time to write a one-page brief for my website: who it's for, what they should believe by the end, the one action they should take, and what I already have (photos, logo, colours).
Don't suggest a design until the brief is finished and I've approved it.
Vault bonus

Claude skill

Keep your brand voice

Make a folder called brand-voice with a SKILL.md inside. Describe how you talk, list the words you never use, and paste three posts you're proud of.
Claude loads it whenever you ask for copy, so you stop explaining your voice every time.
Vault bonus

Claude advice

Start every project with a CLAUDE.md

In Claude Code, open your project folder and run /init. It writes a CLAUDE.md file that Claude reads at the start of every session.
Add your house rules there: how files are named, what never to touch, how you like answers. You'll correct a mistake once instead of every day.
