Plan a realistic day, protect each focus block, and close the current task before moving to the next.
Knowledge work
For writers, developers, designers, researchers, founders, and anyone who needs to hold a train of thought long enough to do their best work.
The daily loop
Attention does not switch just because the window did. Conberate gives the work in front of you a boundary, somewhere to put interruptions, and a deliberate handoff before the next task begins.
Choose what genuinely belongs today, place it into the hours you have, and leave the rest in the backlog. Every task becomes a block with a visible edge.
Know what belongs today and what can wait.
Start one block and the main window steps aside. Its Focus Profiles close chosen apps and block chosen sites. If another thought arrives, press ⌥Space, keep one line, and continue without changing windows.
The thought is safe. The current task keeps your attention.
Say whether the task finished, leave a short way back when the next block needs deep focus, and take a real transition before moving on. At shutdown, resolve captured thoughts and return unfinished work to the backlog.
Know where you stopped and where to begin again.
Why switching feels expensive
Attention residue is what remains when part of your mind stays with the task you just left. Conberate is designed around reducing that residue before the next task begins.
Unfinished work keeps asking to be remembered. A ready-to-resume note records where you stopped, so the task no longer has to stay active in your head.
Keeping it in mind creates another open loop; chasing it creates a context switch. ⌥Space captures it over the current app, then disappears until shutdown.
Focus Profiles close selected apps and block selected websites for each block. Blocking protects the boundary; the transition ritual is what helps attention cross it.
A task manager tells you what needs doing. A blocker reduces distractions. Conberate connects planning, each focus block, the transition between tasks, and the end of the working day.
The practical details
Plan the day, work one block at a time, leave a way back, and close what remains before you stop.
Your work is written to your device first. Sync catches up quietly when a connection returns.
Focus Profiles close selected apps and block selected websites for the duration of each session.
Every feature is included during beta. No payment card and no automatic conversion to a paid plan.
Learn from real days
After enough real days, Conberate shows what finished, how much focused time you sustained, and where estimates met reality — context you can inspect, never a quota.
Completed work, sustained focus, your own rating, and estimate accuracy remain visible instead of disappearing into a mysterious score.
The app learns from your own history, shows its uncertainty, and stays silent until there is enough data to say something useful.
Before you download
Between blocks, a small floating panel lets you reorder what's left, pull something up from the backlog, or send work back — without opening the main window. The one automatic cleanup is deliberate: work that was scheduled but never entered a focus session returns to the backlog when that day is left behind. See the day end to end.
The main window steps aside and the session moves to the menu bar. Focus Profiles close selected apps; the browser extension redirects selected websites to a block page. Deep or shallow controls the block's timing and transition rules — not what gets blocked.
Nothing breaks and nothing scolds you — there's no streak to lose. The next morning Conberate offers, once, to close yesterday properly. If you skip that catch-up, anything you scheduled but never actually started returns to the backlog instead of being counted as completed work.
