Every minute counts.
Most trackers call this a miss. Ascend counts it as 58%.
Ascend is a free habit tracker that counts partial progress. Study 35 of your 60 minutes and it shows 58% done, not a fail.
How it works
Add a habit
About a minute, onceA name is enough to start. Targets, days and steps are there when you want them.
Record what you did
A few seconds a dayTick it off, or type how much you did. Half a workout still counts toward your progress.
Read your review
Once a weekSee what went up, what slipped, and which habit needs you next, in plain words.
This is the screen you'll use every day
Today lists what's planned, takes a tick or an amount, and gives partial days their credit.


Built for real routines
Habits have steps
Break Gym into cardio, weights and stretching. Each step keeps its own progress, and Gym counts as done when the steps you need are done.
- Cardio30 / 30 min
- Weight training20 / 45 min
- Stretching · optional
Targets for the week
Not everything is daily. Aim to run three times a week or study ten hours, and Ascend counts toward the week instead of failing you each day.

Rest days are safe
A day you didn't plan a habit never breaks its streak. Only the days you meant to do it count.

Dashed days weren't planned, so they don't count against you.

Questions
- Is it free?
- Yes. Create an account and use everything. There's nothing to pay for.
- Why do you ask for my email?
- So you can reset your password if you forget it. You can also choose to get a short monthly report of your progress. That's all: no newsletters, no marketing.
- Who can see my habits?
- Only you. Your habits, entries and journal are private to your account, and you can download all of it as a spreadsheet at any time.
- Does it work on my phone?
- Yes. Open the link in your phone's browser and sign in. Every screen is laid out for small screens too.
- What if I forget my password?
- Choose “Forgot your password?” on the sign-in page and enter your email. Ascend sends you a 6-digit code to set a new password, and the email reminds you of your username too.
- What if I change a habit later?
- Your past days keep the rules they were tracked under. Changing a target or a schedule never rewrites your old results.
