Visit Budget

Make automatic website re-checking a conscious choice with daily visit budgets and private, local-only blocking.

Visit Budget helps you notice the moment a quick website check turns automatic. Choose the websites that deserve more intention. Give a site a daily visit budget, block it completely, or enable stricter tab-return counting when switching away and back is part of the habit. Each counted entry shows a quiet reminder with the number of visits remaining. Refreshes and navigation within the same configured site do not consume another visit. Once a budget is exhausted, Visit Budget pauses the next entry. If access is genuinely necessary, an emergency override remains available—but every attempt requires a 15-second wait, a private written intention of at least 50 characters, and exact entry of a fresh five-character code. A successful override lasts 10 minutes. Features: - Daily visit budgets for selected websites - Permanent blocks with no override - Optional counting when you return from another tab - Clear remaining-visit reminders - Subdomain, included-path, and excluded-path controls - Optional daily locks that defer rule changes until tomorrow - Protection for new navigations and already-open tabs Private by design: - No account or backend - No analytics, ads, or telemetry - No remote code - No browsing data leaves your device - Written override intentions are never saved or transmitted - Website access is requested only when you create a rule for that website Visit Budget provides deliberate friction, not an unbreakable lock. You can still uninstall it, use another browser or profile, or bypass Chrome-level enforcement. Its purpose is to interrupt an automatic habit long enough for you to make a conscious choice.
