About
You know the moment. You open one app to check one thing, and forty minutes disappear. And every limit you've ever set, you've swiped away. This one is different — the whole deal fits in one sentence: you set a daily limit, Gus makes it hold, and the time you get back goes to your goals.
How it works, in order:
1. You set the limit. Decide how much scrolling a day is fine by you — your number, your call. Most people start around two hours.
2. Gus makes it hold. At the limit, the apps you picked lock. Mid-scroll, no countdown, no "ignore limit" button. Want more time today? There is exactly one way: a few real, timed minutes on one of your goals opens the door for a while.
3. Your goals get the time. Name what actually matters — the side project, getting in shape, real books — and give each one weekly hours. Sessions are timed, every hour is logged, and the week fills up where you decided it should. Proof, not vibes.
Also in the box:
— Protected Sessions: lock your distractions while you work, for exactly as long as you say. Breaking one is a real decision, not a one-tap escape.
— Weekly Time Budgets: commit hours to each goal and watch the record build.
— Daily Routines: meditate, walk, journal — small timed habits that replace the scroll instead of becoming another chore.
— Sunday Review: an honest weekly bill — limits held, hours built, nothing hidden and nothing inflated.
— A focused AI chat, per goal: it advises. It never touches your data. You decide.
And one promise: no shame, no guilt trips, no pressure. A rough day is weather, not failure — the numbers reset and tomorrow starts clean. Gus isn't a coach yelling at you to do better. He's a good doorman: calm, direct, quietly glad you showed up.
Your time is the evidence of what you actually care about. Gus makes sure the evidence is on your side.
