If you tried either tool early and bounced off because it felt half-built, the version sitting at those URLs right now is not the same product. Most of what changed in the last 48 hours was structural — login, sync, install, classification, branding — the stuff that decides whether you actually use the tool past day one or close the tab.
Here is what is different now.
-You can install both tools as actual apps
The Tracker and the System Lab are both installable on your phone now. No app store. No download queue.
- iPhone: open the Tracker (or the Lab) in Safari, tap the share icon, then "Add to Home Screen." It lands on your home screen with the Obsidian icon and opens full-screen, no browser bar, no URL bar.
- Android: open it in Chrome, you will get an install prompt. Same outcome — full-screen app, lives on your home screen.
Both apps respect dark mode, both have proper splash screens for iPhone 12 through 16 Pro Max, both keep you signed in between sessions.
If the only reason you have not used the Tracker daily is that bookmarking a tab is friction, that friction is gone.
-Logins are real now, on both tools
Before this week, you had no actual account. Whatever you typed into the Tracker was tied to that one browser tab. Close it, lose it.
Now both tools share one Obsidian Metrics account. Sign in once on your phone, the same data is there on your laptop. Sign in on a friend's computer to show them something, sign out, your data stays with you.
This is the change most people asked for and the change that took the longest to do right.
-The Tracker got a real classification engine
The biggest workflow change inside the Tracker is the new Reclassify dialog. When you import a CSV from Coinbase, Robinhood, Public, Wealthfront, or any of the other supported platforms, the Tracker now does two passes.
The first pass categorizes every transaction by function — cash, yield, growth, redundancy — using the framework. The second pass surfaces rows it is not 100% sure about and asks you to confirm or override in a single dialog instead of editing rows one at a time.
You get per-row dropdowns for both type and category, the original platform value next to the suggested value, and you can accept everything in bulk or override the ones that are wrong. The model proposal is the default; you stay in control.
Concretely: a CSV import that used to require you to manually fix 20 rows now takes about 30 seconds.
-The System Lab framework slot logic is cleaner
When you drop a platform into the builder, the Lab now actually checks whether that platform fits the function slot you dropped it into. A high-yield savings account does not get to live in the growth slot. A staking product does not get to live in the cash slot. The validation is there so the system you build is internally consistent before you commit to it.
The pre-built compositions panel is reorganized too. The four-layer system, the redundancy ladder, and the cash-anchor compositions are each one click away in the Templates section.
Saved layouts persist on the device you built them on. Account-tied persistence (so your saved systems follow your login across devices) is the next thing being wired in.
-Both tools now look like they belong together
The Tracker, the System Lab, and the main site share the same logo system now. Same wordmark, same gold-on-dark palette, same iconography. When you switch between the Tracker app, the Lab app, and the main site, it reads as one product family instead of three separate things that happen to be on the same Skool community.
Small thing. Matters a lot if you are showing one of these to someone else and you want it to look intentional.
Smaller fixes that were getting in the way
- The hardcoded "as of" date on the Tracker dashboard is gone. It now reflects the actual refresh time.
- Landscape mode on the Tracker renders correctly on phones.
- The mobile login flow does not get stuck on the auth screen anymore.
- A handful of routing edges on the main site that were dropping clean URLs to a 404 are being worked through. If you hit one, paste the URL in the feed and I will track it down.
What I want from you
Two things, same as before.
One — open the Tracker or the Lab on your phone, install it to your home screen, and run through one full session. If anything is confusing or breaks, post it in the Financial Market feed or DM me. I would rather hear it from you while it is fixable than guess later.
Two — if there is a platform you think belongs in System Lab and you do not see it yet, tell me which one and which framework slot you think it lives in (cash, yield, growth, or redundancy). That is how the library grows in a way that is actually useful, not just longer.
