Nova is a notebook, planner and garden for your projects. Asymmetric by design: the story sits left, the commitment sits right — no centered pill, no twin buttons shouting at you.

Founder notes — why asymmetric

Centered pill heroes shout. An offset form listens. The shadow does the shouting instead.

LEFT STORY

Headline, proof, press strip. The F-pattern carries scanners to commitment.

RIGHT COMMIT

Three fields and one button. Validation is inline and kind, never modal.

BELOW PROOF

Method rail, billing toggle, FAQ. Each answers the next objection in order.

Press M for monthly, Y for yearly. The form focuses from the top button.

Pricing honesty

Yearly cuts twenty percent. Export is one click. Classrooms pay half.

COMMIT

PROOF

Offline page
