The browser boundary for work that matters.
State one outcome. Choose the sites that can help. Focusward keeps that route open and sends everything else away until the session ends.

A clear edge makes the next useful action easier to see.
Mode StrictIllustrative session
Make the route smaller. Make the work clearer.
Most blockers begin with a list of forbidden sites. Focusward begins with the thing you want to finish. That change is small, but it gives the session a reason.
The goal is the largest control.
Write the outcome in plain language. Then keep only the websites that serve it. The extension uses that boundary during the timed session, so the browser stops asking you to choose again.

Goal
Say what done means.
A session has a sentence behind it. That sentence gives the boundary a useful shape.
Route
Keep the necessary sites.
Course, reference, repository, deploy. You decide what belongs before the timer starts.
Finish
Return when the clock ends.
Focusward does not add break cycles. The session stays active for the duration you choose.
Different work. The same clean edge.
Focusward is useful wherever progress needs a few sites and less permission to drift.
Developers

Keep GitHub, documentation, issue trackers, and your deploy surface close.

Notes for making the route hold.
Clear boundaries help, but they are not magic. These guides look at the tools, habits, and tradeoffs behind focused browsing.

Read the comparisonQuestions before you start.
Focusward is deliberately small. Here is what it does and what it does not promise.
What does Focusward block?
During a session, Focusward redirects navigation outside the websites you chose for that goal. Chrome system pages, other browsers, other profiles, other devices, and a user who disables the extension remain outside its control.
Where does my browsing information go?
Goals, domain lists, session history, and browsing information used for focus enforcement remain in Chrome local storage. License activation sends only the information needed to verify paid access.
What happens after 30 free minutes?
The free allowance counts cumulative minutes of active website blocking per installation. After it is used, continued focus sessions require Focusward Pro.
Can I use one purchase on more than one device?
Each purchase supports up to 3 Focusward installations. The license service checks activations so the limit is clear.
Does Focusward include breaks?
No. A session stays active for the duration you choose. The product has no break cycle.
Give the next hour a route.
Start with the free allowance, choose the sites your work needs, and move focusward.
