## What is Hades?

STOP SCROLLING. START LIVING.

Tired of screen time apps that don't work? Hades is different. Instead of just blocking apps, we make you FEEL the consequences of wasting time.

HOW IT WORKS

When you open a blocked app, Hades intercepts and plays a personalized AI voice message - like a loving but disappointed parent catching you procrastinating. It's uncomfortable. It's effective. It works.

Choose between Dad Voice or Mom Voice. Set your goals. Watch your self-control skyrocket.

WHY HADES WORKS WHEN OTHERS FAIL

- EMOTIONAL IMPACT: Screen time limits are easy to ignore. A disappointed parent? Not so much.
- AI-POWERED MESSAGES: Fresh, personalized messages every time based on YOUR goals
- BUILDS REAL HABITS: Track your streaks and see your discipline grow day by day
- NO WILLPOWER NEEDED: The app does the work. You just resist.

FEATURES

- AI Voice Interventions: Dad or Mom voice, your choice
- Personalized to Your Goals: Studying, working out, praying, or custom goals
- Streak Tracking: Build momentum with daily wins
- Beautiful Dashboard: See your progress at a glance
- Calendar Heatmap: Visualize your journey
- Works with Any App: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, and more

PERFECT FOR

- Students who need to focus on studying
- Professionals fighting distraction
- Anyone tired of wasting hours on social media
- People who've tried other apps and failed

THE SCIENCE

Hades uses emotional accountability - the same psychology that makes you put your phone down when a parent walks in. We've automated it.

SIMPLE SETUP

1. Sign in with Apple
2. Choose your voice (Dad or Mom)
3. Set your goal
4. Add your blocked apps
5. Done. Next time you open those apps, Hades intervenes.
