Surging
Goal Management app
Free · Designed for iPad
Track your goals with AI suggestions, build daily habits, and stay on pace with AI-powered coaching.
Surging keeps you moving toward your goals—every single day.
Set your goals, break them into daily or weekly routines or have AI suggest routines, and let Surging track your progress in real time. Whether you're learning a new skill, building a habit, finishing a course, or tackling a personal project, Surging keeps you motivated and on pace.
CREATE GOALS FROM YOUR NOTES
Paste any text—a to-do list, a plan, notes from a meeting—and Surging's AI instantly turns it into structured goals with tasks. No tedious setup. Just paste, review, and start tracking.
AI COACHING, BUILT IN
Surging analyzes your progress and delivers specific, actionable coaching—what's on track, what's at risk, and exactly what to do about it. Powered by fast cloud AI, insights work right out of the box. No setup, no account, no API key required.
ORGANIZE WITH CATEGORIES
Group your goals by Health, Work, Learning, Personal, or Finance. Filter your list with a tap to focus on what matters right now—perfect when you're juggling goals across different parts of your life.
STAY ON PACE
Set your work window and Surging shows a live pace bar through the day. Fall behind and get a gentle hourly nudge with exactly what you need to do to catch up. Get back on pace and the reminders stop automatically.
EARN POINTS, LEVEL UP
Every milestone earns points. Hit 50% on a goal, complete it, build a streak, or finish a perfect day—watch your rank climb from Rookie all the way to Legend as you build the habits that matter.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
**1. Paste-to-create goals (AI)** — Paste any free-text (a to-do list, notes, a plan) and Groq turns it into structured goals with tasks. Users review before adding. Accessed via a "Create from notes" button on the Goals tab.
**2. Goal categories/tags** — Tag goals with a color-coded category (Health, Work, Learning, Personal, Finance). Includes a category picker in the form, filter chips on the Goals tab, and a colored badge on each goal card.
**3. AI task suggestions** — A "Suggest tasks with AI" button in two places: the goal form and each goal card. Groq proposes relevant tasks for the goal, and users tick which ones to add.
**4. Statistics/trends view** — A "Trends" section at the top of the Tracker tab showing summary tiles (active goals, completed, best streak, total points), a 14-day completion bar chart, a cumulative points line, and a per-category breakdown. Built with plain SVG/CSS — no chart library.
**5. Archive completed goals** — Archive goals instead of deleting them, with an Active/Archived toggle on the Goals tab and archive/restore buttons on each card. Archived goals are excluded from AI analysis and pace tracking.
**6. Per-goal reminders** — Each goal can have its own daily reminder time, set with a toggle and time picker in the goal form. Coexists with the global daily reminder using separate notification ID ranges.
