About

Impulse Mode

Features

Read full description

Impulse is a guided experiment for changing a stuck behavior — with structure, not willpower. Instead of focusing only on planning or reflection, Impulse helps you work through urges in the moment they arise. You begin with a free baseline to observe patterns, then run a short experiment to test what actually works for you. Features: • Free baseline to understand triggers and patterns • In-the-moment intervention tracking • Daily reflection and structured adjustments • Anonymous by design — no name or email required Impulse is a non-clinical tool for self-observation and experimentation. It does not provide therapy, diagnosis, or medical treatment.
