Hey, I'm the solo maker behind Pace. I wanted to share why I'm building this, because it's personal.
Sitting is the universal condition of modern work. Most of us sit 8 10 hours a day. It's not a willpower problem it's just what desk work is.
The harm is slow, quiet, and compounding. A stiff neck here, tight shoulders there. Nothing dramatic until years of it add up. The damage of sitting isn't one bad day; it's a thousand unremarkable ones.
What we're missing isn't knowledge it's habit. Everyone knows they should move. Nobody needs another lecture. What we lack is a way to build the habit without it feeling like a chore or like malware locking your screen.
You don't have a discipline problem. You have a sitting problem.
Pace is a tiny Windows app that helps desk workers build one healthy habit: short, timely movement breaks. No gym needed — one small stretch at the right moment is enough.
No screen lockouts. No guilt trips. Every reminder is skippable, because you're in charge.
Rest well to work well. Work isn't just grinding — knowing how to rest is part of doing great work.
