Plans

One for your household. One for your company. One for the table.

Every plan includes the way you read it, so that was never going to be a separate line on a bill.

For your household

Belon

Everything that follows from what you record, kept current, for one household.

$12/month

or $120 a year

  • Your whole position, rebuilt on every fact you record
  • Ask in plain words. The answer is already live
  • The Floor: whether it holds, answered yes or no
  • The questions arithmetic cannot settle, when they become yours
  • A permanent record. Nothing is ever overwritten

For a business

The game, with other people

Belonaire Together

Playing the house costs nothing. This is the table: real people sitting at it, and a room beside it.

Free, and stays free

  • The game against the house, at every difficulty, for as long as you like
  • Every character, every space, every card in the deck
  • The full telling: the dice, the card, the move, the aftermath
  • Your saves, your standings and your story

The board’s companion

Belonaire Go

For the physical board on your table. It runs the bank and keeps the books, so everybody plays.

Book Three

The Belonaire’s Priceless Problem

Some decisions can be calculated. Others have to be decided. This book is about telling them apart, and what to do with the second kind.

The method is meant to be doable by hand, in an afternoon, with a pen. So the pen is for sale, and that is not a joke.

Paper and print

Paper, cloth, and a box with a board in it.

Pre-order

The box

Belonaire, the board game

The whole game in a box: the calendar board, both decks, the deeds, the tokens and the rulebook. The version you play at a table with people in the room.

$65

Paper

The Afternoon Notebook

Ruled for the method, with the working laid out. The whole claim is that this works with no software at all, so it had better exist.

$28

Paper

The Pen

Because the pen path is not a metaphor and is not allowed to break.

$18

Apparel

The Boundary Hoodie

Heavyweight, unbranded but for one line across the chest where the arithmetic stops.

$72

Pre-order

Apparel

The Field Jacket

Lined, pocketed for a notebook, and cut to survive more than one season. Named for the Field.

$145

It Never Answers Them

The least marketable sentence we have ever written, on a shirt.

Computed above. Yours below. The line between them, printed large.

$40

Print

The Floor

Every condition that has to hold at once, on one sheet, in the order they fail.

$40

Small things

The Two Kinds Mug

Worked out on one side. Yours to decide on the other. Read whichever way you are holding it.

$22

Small things

The Obligation Calendar Tote

Twelve months, one complete revolution, printed on heavy canvas.

How this works

No countdown. No scarcity. No last three left.

Your bag waits

It is kept on this device, and it is still there tomorrow. Nothing about it is sent anywhere until you decide to buy.

Nothing is pushed at you

No recommendations, no people also bought, no urgency invented to move you. The same refusal that runs through the products runs through the shop.

One price, printed once

No introductory rate that doubles in a year, no discount for a longer lock-in you will regret. What it costs is what it costs.

Not sure which one?

Start with how it works. If the boundary makes sense to you, the products will. And if it does not, no plan is going to fix that.
