A kinder approach
Most focus tools treat distraction as something to block. Nudge takes a gentler approach.
When you reach a boundary, it gives you space to pause, check in with yourself, and decide what to do next.
Made for real life
Nudge helps you notice what’s happening, without deciding for you what happens next.
Set daily limits for individual websites, categories, or all tracked browsing — whatever works for you.
Get a calm, non-blocking reminder and a configurable break timer when you reach a boundary.

Read our privacy policyWhy we built Nudge
Nudge grew from our own frustration with procrastination, particularly as members of our team are on the autism spectrum.
We wanted something supportive rather than restrictive. Sometimes a reminder helps, and sometimes the side quest simply needs to be completed. Nudge leaves that choice with you.
