AI Focus

The Ultimate Solution
to Your Distractions

Block lists never worked for me. I always found another distraction.

AI Focus puts an end to that cycle.

Staged AI Focus v2 demonstration.

Tell it what you want to get done. During your focus block, AI watches your screen and checks whether what you’re doing matches your goal.

A lecture that helps you study? Keep watching. A detour into unrelated videos? Once two checks confirm the distraction, FocusDragon closes that browser or app and keeps it closed for a cooldown.

AI Focus analyzes screenshots in the cloud during a block you start. Closing a browser or app can lose unsaved work.

Built different. For people like you.

FocusDragon doesn't rely on willpower. It removes the option.

1

Six layers deep.

System-level blocking you can't outsmart.

2

Relentless daemon.

Survives quit and reboot, and puts itself back after a panic uninstall mid-block.

3

Tamper-proof locks.

Once locked, you can't change your mind.

4

Mac native.

Built for macOS. Runs at the system level.

5

Privacy first.

Local blocking. Clear AI privacy controls.

6

Focus stats.

See the truth. Win your time back.

Your block list stays on your Mac. No account needed to start — and blocking keeps holding even when the app is closed.macOS 14 Sonoma or later
The arsenal

Ten ways to make a block impossible to quit.

Willpower is the weak point. So the dragon doesn't rely on it. Start a block and choose the lock that guards it — then discover it's far too late to change your mind.

Websites & apps

Name a site or an app and it’s gone. The distraction stops opening — no negotiation.

The whole internet

Torch the entire web and keep a short list of exceptions. Everything else simply doesn’t load.

Keyword searches

Block what you search for, not just where. The rabbit hole never gets its first click.

Every browser

Extensions for Safari, Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera and Vivaldi. Switching browsers won’t save you.

Doomscroll preset

One switch hard-blocks the endless feeds — TikTok FYP, IG Reels, YouTube Shorts.

Weekly schedules

Blocks that run themselves, week after week — plus allowances and scheduled breaks when you’ve earned them.

Bulletproof strictness

Drag it to the Trash all you like. FocusDragon survives uninstall attempts and keeps guarding the gate.

Statistics

Your full app and website usage history — proof of where the hours went, and where they go now.

Tamperproof

It puts itself back.

Drag it to the Trash in a weak moment and it's back within seconds — your block holds until the timer runs out. A panic uninstall mid-block won't shake it off.

What you win back

Trade the scroll for your life back.

Name the thing you keep meaning to do. FocusDragon guards the door so you actually do it.

Sleep on time

The feed can wait till morning. It always could.

Study for the exam

The tab that wanted you loses.

Ship the actual work

Fewer open loops, more finished things.

Stop doomscrolling

The thumb goes idle. On purpose.

Curb impulse buys

The cart cools off before you do.

Healthier gaming limits

One more round — but only the ones you meant.

Reclaim your mornings

The first hour is yours again.

Beat the algorithm

It optimizes for you. So do we.

Read real books again

Pages, not posts.

Cut back on food delivery

The kitchen misses you.

Time with people offline

Present, not just online.

Quit the 2am spiral

The door stays shut when it matters most.

The believers

They tried every blocker. This is the one they couldn't beat.
