Aegis Chronos - Time Cost

That $50 dinner? 1 hour and 36 minutes of your life.
That $1,200 phone? Almost a full work week.
Aegis Chronos changes how you see money by converting every price into the hours and minutes you actually work to earn it. Once you see what things truly cost in life hours, you make better decisions.

PREMIUM DESIGN
Every screen features glassmorphism surfaces, smooth spring animations, elevated card shadows, and circular icon backgrounds. Glow-accented buttons give purposeful feedback on every decision. Light and dark themes with refined typography adapt to your preference.

HOW IT WORKS
Enter your income, and Aegis Chronos calculates your real hourly rate after taxes. Then type in any price -- or scan a price tag with your camera -- and instantly see how many hours and minutes of your working life it costs.

MAKE BETTER DECISIONS
For every purchase, choose: "I Walked Away" or "I Bought It." Aegis Chronos tracks both decisions, so you can see exactly how much time you've saved (or spent) over days, weeks, and months.

SMART NUDGES
Get gentle "sleep on it" reminders for purchases that cost more than 2 hours of your life. Add items to your Wishlist with a cool-off timer -- build a pause between impulse and purchase.

SAVINGS VAULT & INVESTMENT PROJECTIONS
Watch your deferred purchases add up with a glowing streak banner and glass-effect cards. See the total time you've reclaimed and how much your saved money could grow with investment projections over 10, 15, and 20 years.

ORACLE ANALYTICS DASHBOARD
Track your net time balance, view 7-day spending trends, monitor time budget burn-down, explore category heatmaps, get goal forecasts, review smart insights, and see decision outcomes -- all on elevated cards with circular icon headers.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDED WALKTHROUGH
A 36-step interactive walkthrough covers every feature across all five tabs. Each step highlights the relevant area with an animated border, while a tab-level progress bar tracks your journey. Skip ahead or go back at any time.

WISHLIST WITH COOL-OFF TIMERS
Add items you want to buy and set a cooling-off period (24 hours to 1 week). When the timer expires, decide with a clear head: Buy It or Skip It.

Build daily usage streaks, unlock 21 achievement badges for savings milestones, and challenge yourself with the "Guess the Time Cost" game.
