Just the work, and someone rude enough to keep you at it. ## FOR ANYONE WITH DARK HUMOR If you thrive on sarcasm, memes, and chaos — this is your accountability buddy. If you want kindness, try a meditation app instead. If you want results, download this one. ## PRICING FREE • 5 and 10 minute timers • All three roast packs • Unlimited sessions PRO WEEKLY – $0.99/week • 3-day free trial • Cancel anytime PRO YEARLY – $19.99/year • Save 61% vs weekly PRO LIFETIME – $29.99 • One-time payment, never expires • Best value Pro unlocks sessions up to 60 minutes, Pomodoro mode, custom timer lengths, and roasts read aloud.
