What's new in Respite

New features, newest first, with the platforms each one is on. For the full feature list, see Features.

Let your AI make your limits stricter

Opt in when you connect Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and your AI can lower a limit or add a schedule, applied at once. Raising or removing a limit, or removing a schedule, becomes a request you approve in the Respite app (the Connected AI screen is arriving in app updates). Every change is logged, and your AI can undo its own. Respite Plus.
