Ripcord. One pull for the day you can't go in.
You wake up ill. Client meetings, a deadline, people waiting on you. The worst part isn't the fever. It's the admin.
So I built a cord. Drag it down, say how long you're out, and Ripcord does the rest:
Moves your real Google Calendar meetings to your next free slots
Shifts your deadlines by the days you lose
Writes one short note per client in your voice, sent from your own Gmail
Plans your first morning back
Keeps a receipt for every change. Hold to undo any of it.
Can't face another app? There's an MCP server too. Tell Claude "I've got the flu, clear my week" and it pulls the cord for you.
Built entirely on Base44: entities with owner-only security, 27 backend functions, Google Calendar and Gmail connectors so each user connects their own account, InvokeLLM for the notes, and an hourly workflow for the heads-up and welcome-back emails. I tested it on my own calendar: the meetings moved, the notes landed, and undo put everything back.
The design is a "Signal Room": one glowing red cord on an LED wall. It works on your phone, one-handed, from bed.

The Signal Room concept with one glowing red cord on an LED wall is such a strong visual for a sick-day app. Keeping a receipt for every change so undo puts everything back is the detail that makes this feel trustworthy.
