| 30 | ## Why Daymon? |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Sleep. Daymon doesn't. It runs Claude tasks on schedule, remembers context across conversations, watches files for changes, and works in the background — all while you sleep, commute, or focus on other things. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | No API keys. No token costs. No cloud. Just your existing Claude subscription, finally working 24/7. |
| 35 | |

| 110 | Your Claude subscription only works when you do. Daymon puts it to work 24/7. |
| 111 | |
| 112 | ## Features |
