About FocusNow

Deep work shouldn't require deep effort.

FocusNow started with a question we kept asking at the end of busy days: where did all that time actually go? We dug into the research on attention and focus, took inspiration from Cal Newport's Deep Work, and built something simple that bends to your rules. Because once you know where your day goes, the week and the month fall into place — and there's room again for the work that matters and the life around it.

Effortless

No buttons to press, no timers to start. FocusNow runs silently in the background and shows you where your time went. And the rules are yours — you decide what counts as focus and what counts as distraction.

Privacy-First

Your productivity data is deeply personal. Everything is encrypted in transit and at rest, never sold, and stored on your terms. We built FocusNow so you never have to choose between insight and privacy.

Transparent

We're clear about what we collect, how we store it, and why. No dark patterns, no hidden data flows. You own your data and can export or delete it anytime.

Not just words — read our privacy commitment or see what ships in the changelog.

A note from the founders

FocusNow is built by two people — Cihan and Barbaros. We didn't start it to squeeze more hours out of ourselves; we started it to waste fewer of them — to finish focused work in focused time and keep the rest for family, hobbies, and downtime. We wanted to see where our days went without handing that answer to a surveillance tool, so we built our own. We use FocusNow every day, and it grows with what our users tell us. When you write to info@focusnow.ai, one of us answers.
