Private invitations begin after waitlist review.
Supporter Alpha
TaskTabby Supporter Alpha opens August 3, 2026.
TaskTabby is a privacy-first Windows desktop focus companion that keeps one task nearby, offers gentle support, and turns focused work into visible progress. This is early alpha software, built for people comfortable testing something unfinished.
Joining the waitlist does not guarantee a paid alpha spot. Invitations will be reviewed and sent manually.
A deliberately small first group
Thirty testers, so support can stay personal.
The first paid Supporter Alpha is capped at 30 people. A smaller group makes it possible to respond carefully, understand feedback, and improve the Windows build without pretending it is ready for everyone.
Invites and private Stripe payment links are sent manually. Waitlist order is not a reservation.
Payment happens only through a private invite.
Other operating systems are not supported yet.
What supporters get
Early access with a direct feedback loop.
- Access to early Supporter Alpha builds
- A clear Windows install guide
- A practical channel for bug reports and feedback
- Updates as the core focus loop improves
- A Supporter Alpha member number after payment
What is not ready yet
This is not a finished 1.0 release.
- Some companion states and responses remain experimental
- Progression, history, and onboarding still need refinement
- Bugs, rough edges, and occasional performance issues are expected
- macOS and Linux builds are not available
- Features may change in response to testing
Funding transparency
How the funding will be used
The Supporter Alpha is limited to 30 paid testers at $25 each. That means the first alpha can bring in up to $750 before any payment, tax, or operating considerations.
That money will not turn TaskTabby into a finished product overnight, but it can help move the project forward in real ways.
TaskTabby is still being built by one developer, so I want the paid alpha to stay realistic. This is not a big launch pretending to be a finished product. It is a small, controlled supporter alpha for people who want to help shape the app early.
Funding will help cover
- App signing and distribution costs
- Website and hosting costs
- Additional artwork and animation work
- New props and companion content
- Testing and release preparation
- Continued development and polish
How invitations work
Reviewed first, paid second.
Waitlist entries are reviewed manually. Selected testers receive a private invitation and payment link. A place becomes confirmed only after payment is completed. No public payment link is available.
Who should join
People comfortable shaping an early product.
Join if you use Windows 10 or 11, spend meaningful time working at a computer, value privacy-first software, and are willing to report rough edges with patience and useful context.
Who should wait
People who need finished, predictable software.
Wait for a later release if you need a polished production tool, guaranteed compatibility, a complete progression system, macOS or Linux support, or a companion experience with no bugs or changing behavior.
Privacy-first promise
Your focus data should remain yours.
TaskTabby is designed as a local-first focus companion. Diagnostics and feedback exports are shared only when you choose to send them. Active-window or app-awareness features, where present, will be opt-in and clearly explained.
- No telemetry by default
- No automatic uploads
- No background crash reporting
- No screen recording or screenshot collection
Refunds and support
Early access should still be handled fairly.
Supporter Alpha access is for early testers. If TaskTabby will not run on your Windows system or you feel the alpha is not a fit, contact support within 14 days of purchase.

Tell me how you hope to use TaskTabby.
The form helps keep the first group relevant and manageable. Your waitlist number records your submission order, but it is not a reservation or Supporter Alpha member number.
Selected testers will receive a private invitation. Payment information is never collected through this form.
* Joining does not guarantee one of the 30 paid alpha spots. Private payment invites are sent manually after review.
