about.

this site started because i have ADHD and the existing focus tools all annoyed me in different ways. Pomofocus has no sound. Forest is paid and mobile-only. Brain.fm wants $70 a year for what is, fundamentally, brown noise. YouTube has ads in the middle of your work block.

so i built focuscave. one developer, one weekend, then a lot of small weekends after that. everything works in your browser. no signup. no ads inside the timer. just the tools.

what's here

a pomodoro timer with built-in brown, pink, and white noise.

an ambient sound mixer for layering rain, café, fire, and the rest.

guided breathing for the minute before you start.

a life-in-weeks visualizer for the moments you need perspective.

a quiz that recommends a focus technique based on your situation.

a countdown with shareable links like /countdown/25-minutes.

a BPM tapper for finding the tempo of what you're listening to.

a tab-title timer that lives in your browser tab, not the page.

personal stats: sessions, streaks, a heatmap. all in your browser.

built for brains that drift. if it helps you, that's the whole thing.
