Calling for beta users – an app that protects your focus

Hey HN! I'm Danny, and I’ve been an entrepreneur for a few months. As my product is not live yet so I would make a regular post instead

Living in a world where billions of dollars are spent on stealing your attention, I am well aware of my reduced focus muscle and ability to get distracted easily during work. That's why I picked this problem to solve and tried it as a startup idea. After working with current beta users, I've put together this version (https://productiv.digital/) and want to ask for valuable feedback by posting for more beta users.

So shortly, to train your focus muscle, my approach is to (1) eliminate the source of distraction and (2) let your brain know what's coming next (or else it will actively crave distraction). Ultimately, I want to make “something” that could go along with users - like their own companion that progressively trains users’ brains to lower dopamine baseline and achieve more by quality time. Having said that, so far this app will: - App blocker: block unwanted apps/sites, create personalized messages for yourself at the block wall, increasingly delaying time to unblock - Plan your daily day effectively fast (Sunsama-like): you cannot focus if you don’t have a purpose to do so. Just write down what's in your mind (Like Todoist or TickTick), - Smart scheduling: schedule your day via one-click, it will also suggest a new schedule if unplanned event slots in (new meeting for example) - Check-in reminder to check messages and emails: So focus mode is great, but the problem is that it amplifies FOMO in our minds. The app will remind you regularly to check during your focus flow - (in progress) capture your day accurately, weekly analytics to learn how you spent your day

I'm looking for a new batch of beta users where you can give us feedback while using for free and receive a lifetime deal in return. If this is within your interest, click “try for free” button in the website and leave your contact. Looking forward to all the ideas/feedback to cover my blindspot as well. Appreciate every comment to make it happen. Thanks guys!
