The shed counts
Anything you already own can be logged on its way out. You don't need to have bought it through Buoycott.
How it works
Follow one thing all the way from the urge to own it to the day it leaves your home.
Before
Notice the pull
When something catches your eye, pause and name what you want. You can explore the feeling without adding another thing to your home.
During
Keep the decision
Choose one item and decide what it means now. Release what no longer serves you, or return a purchase you regret.
After
Let it leave
Record the moment it goes and find the right next step: donate, recycle, or dispose of it responsibly. The decision stays decided.
The exit event
The number nobody shows you
A price tag tells you what something cost. It doesn't tell you what it cost for every month you actually kept it. That number only exists once you record the moment something leaves.
Do that a few dozen times and a pattern appears — the categories you release fastest, the ones you never regret. Buoycott brings that pattern back to you at the moment you're about to buy something similar.
Buoycott shows you your own patterns. It doesn't score you, rank you, or tell you what to buy. Pattern insights can be switched off at any time.

You don't have to start from scratch
Most tools like this only work going forward — log a purchase today, learn something in a year. Buoycott works the other way round too. If you've got a garage, a spare room or a cupboard full of things you've been meaning to deal with, that's not a backlog. That's your starting data.
Rough numbers are fine
You won't remember what everything cost. An estimate and a rough year is enough for the pattern to show up.
One afternoon is enough
Work through a single cupboard in a batch, and you'll have something worth looking at by the end of it.
The things you're about to get rid of already know what you tend to buy.
How it feels
Decluttering is usually described as a chore. Done this way, it starts to feel like something else.
You stop re-deciding
The jacket you've moved between three cupboards gets one decision, and it stays decided. Nothing carries forward to be weighed up again next spring.
No more "I'll deal with it later"
You find out what things really cost
Not the price on the tag — what it came to for every month you actually kept it. Once you've seen that number a few times, you recognise the pattern before you buy, not after.
$340 over 7 months is $48 a month
Your home gets easier to live in
Fewer things means fewer things to move, clean around and think about. The shelf you cleared stays clear, because less is coming in to fill it.
Space you don't have to manage
What makes Buoycott different
It connects the decision to let go with the spending pattern that led you there.
Lightness you can see
Watch your score rise as you clear physical space and mental baggage. Every item let go brings a literal sense of lightness.
Release & Return
Mindfully part with clutter, or return impulse purchases you regret. Acknowledge what didn't serve you and let it go.
Make it real
Find out exactly where your discarded items can find a second life. Less waste, more space, and a lighter footprint.
