Your writing pace is calculated from the last 7 days of logs.
How to use
- Name your project and add each chapter with a word target.
- Each day, log how many words you wrote with the Log Words button.
- Use the plus and minus buttons on each chapter to add words to that chapter directly.
- Watch the overall bar and the estimated finish date keep you on track.
Note: the estimated finish date uses your average words per day from the last 7 days of logs. No account is needed and all data stays on your device.
Tips
- Break long chapters into smaller targets — a 2,000 word goal feels easier than a 10,000 word one.
- Log honestly, even on zero-word days — the pace estimate stays realistic.
- Write 500 words a day and a 60,000 word thesis takes about 120 writing days.
- Review your slowest chapter weekly and move writing time toward it.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the thesis progress tracker work?
Add each chapter with a name and a word target, then log the words you write each day. The tool draws a progress bar for every chapter and one for the whole thesis.
Is my thesis data saved?
Yes. All chapters and word logs are saved in your own browser storage, so your progress is still there when you return on the same device.
Can I track more than one thesis?
Yes. You can create multiple projects, for example one per degree or research paper, and switch between them at any time.
How is the estimated finish date worked out?
From your average words per day over the last 7 days of logs. Log honestly, even on zero-word days, to keep it realistic.
