The Focus Warden

Smart site blocking via friction - complete micro-tasks to access distracting sites, with accountability partner time tracking

Are you tired of site blockers that are either too easy to bypass or too strict to be useful? Meet The Focus Warden—the smart productivity extension that uses positive friction to help you reclaim your time. Instead of flat-out blocking your favorite distracting websites, The Focus Warden introduces a "mindful gate." To access a blocked site, you must complete a quick, healthy micro-task. By forcing you to pause and reflect, it short-circuits mindless browsing and helps you build better digital habits. ✨ Key Features: Mindful Friction Tasks: Choose from 7 different micro-tasks to unlock a site, including a 60-second breathing exercise, math problems, typing challenges, physical stretches, or writing a short reflection. Precision Time Tracking: The Warden monitors exactly how much time you spend actively viewing a distracting site. If you switch tabs or step away from your computer, the timer intelligently pauses. Daily Accountability Reports: Keep yourself honest by entering an accountability partner's email. At a time you choose, the extension will automatically draft a daily summary detailing exactly which distracting sites you visited and for how long. Privacy-First & Secure: The extension is built on the modern, secure Manifest V3 architecture. All tracking and data storage happens locally on your machine. Zero Distractions: No ads, no bloatware. Just a clean, beautiful interface designed to keep you on track. Take back control of your attention span today with The Focus Warden!
