The Pomodoro technique
Focus in intervals
The Pomodoro technique structures work into focused intervals followed by short breaks. Start with the classic 25 minutes, set your own focus and break lengths, or add ten minutes when you’re in the flow — all from the timer’s own menu.
What you get
A timer that stays out of your way
Focus mode is a Pomodoro built into WebCatalog. Start a session and it follows you from your computer to your browser, with nothing to set up and nothing blocked.

No blocklists
Nothing to configure. Just press Start.
Keep your work separate
Focus inside one space
Give each client, project, or part of your life its own space, with its own apps and accounts. When it’s time to focus, open the space you’re working in. Its apps are right there — and everything else stays out of sight until you’re done.
A calmer, more focused day
Why does switching tasks feel so tiring?
Switching tasks comes with a cognitive cost. Each time you move to another task, your brain has to disengage from one set of rules and load another. Researchers call this a switch cost, and frequent switching can add up over the day.1
Interruptions have a cost too. Research from UC Irvine found that people could work faster after interruptions, but reported more stress, frustration, and time pressure.2
