focus tools your
brain actually wants.
a pomodoro timer with built-in brown noise, and a handful of other small tools.
three flavours
click any color above to try it.
brown noise
deep, rumbly, low-end heavy. like rain on a thick tent. the one most ADHD brains end up loving.
pink noise
softer than white, warmer than brown. equal energy per octave, closer to wind in leaves than a dishwasher.
white noise
the bright one. a flat hiss across all frequencies. best for masking voices and high-frequency office distractions.
more small tools
a handful of things i wanted for myself. all free, all client-side, all in one place.
sound mixer
layer rain, fireplace, café, and three colors of noise. save your mix.
breathing
guided box, 4-7-8, and physiological sigh. one circle, no nonsense.
life in weeks
your life as a 90-year grid of squares. occasionally sobering.
newADHD quiz
the unofficial asrs v1.1. takes about two minutes.
countdown
to a date, a deadline, or the next sunday. shareable link.
bpm tapper
tap a key in time. tells you the tempo. surprisingly useful.
your stats
sessions, streaks, a heatmap. all in your browser.
tab timer
minimalist countdown that lives in your browser tab.
why i built this.
i have ADHD. pomodoro broke me. 25 minutes was always either too short or right when i was getting into flow. brown noise on YouTube was great until an ad kicked in mid-session. Brain.fm wants $70 a year.
so i built this. one page, no account, no upsell. open a tab, hit space, get to work.

the dopamine theory of ADHD, explained without the tiktok hype
you've probably seen a lot of talk about dopamine and ADHD on social media lately. much of it is well-meaning, but some can be a bit simplified or even misleading.
working memory and ADHD: the bottleneck no one talks about
we often hear about focus and hyperactivity when ADHD comes up, but there's a quieter, often overlooked challenge that impacts daily life significantly: working memory. imagine your brain has a small, active workspace where thoughts and information come to play, but for many with ADHD, that space feels constantly cluttered, too small, or items just vanish from it without warning. it's a bottleneck that can make even simple tasks feel like monumental efforts.
