How it works

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Four focused capabilities. Each one designed to reduce friction and keep you in the work.

🔒

App sessions

Choose exactly which apps are allowed during a session. Everything else gets pushed aside. Nudge enforces the boundary so you don't have to.

Website blocking

Block distracting sites in Chrome and Safari natively — no browser extension needed. Per-session rules that activate the moment you start and lift when you're done.
