Memento Vitae - Your Life in Time

See Your Life. Spend It Wisely

Memento Vitae is a quiet browser extension built on one premise: Your life is a fixed quantity. Money, attention, and time are all withdrawals from it. The most honest accounting is in hours. Every new tab opens to your life calendar. Past lived, future remaining. Drawn from real life-expectancy data. The squares you've already used are filled. The ones ahead, mostly, are not. When a site has been taking too much of your time, Memento Vitae asks one question: Your time is limited. 1.17% of it has been lost here. How will you use the rest? You can leave. Or you can continue, with your eyes open. Either is your choice. When you shop, prices appear in hours of your life The dashboard does not show you what you wasted. It shows you what you reclaimed - sites you avoided, time you took back. Counsel from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Schopenhauer surfaces when it's useful. Not when it would fit on a coffee mug. Local-only. No account. No telemetry. No servers. The source is open. Free. It will remain free. Epictetus: Care take this moment. Immerse yourself in its particulars.
