The same Ora tea timer shown in the Mac menu bar, on a phone, and on a watch.

Made for ordinary moments

Time lives in the margins of the day.

Not every moment needs a system. Sometimes you only need the next few minutes to stay close.

Natural input

Say the time like you think it.

Durations, scheduled moments, and stopwatches all start from the same compact field. No mode switching. No setup ritual.
