WakeFul - The game that ends on purpose, so you can start work

Hi Product Hunt! I’m Abhay, and together with my co-founder Sharmila, built WakeFul.

Most of our study sessions used to start the same way. We’d open the laptop, pick up the phone “for a minute”, and lose half an hour. A break that never ends doesn’t help you start. So we built a break that does end.

WakeFul is five one-minute games you play in the browser: tap the right bubbles, repeat a pattern, find a shape among look-alikes, answer by a rule that keeps changing, then a sprint that mixes all four. Each round starts only when you click. Before and after, you rate how alert you feel, so you can judge for yourself whether it helps. We don’t claim it makes you smarter. It’s a warm-up, not a brain test.

You get 3 free runs when you sign up with your email. After that, runs come in packs (from $4.99, or ₹99 in India) that never expire, with no subscription.

WakeFul is still early. We’re adding new games and formats, and tuning the five that are there.

The feedback that would help us most:

• Did a run actually help you get started on something?
• Which round felt best, and which felt too easy or too hard?
• Was anything confusing, from signing up to the results screen?

There’s a short, optional feedback form after every run, and Sharmila and I will read every comment here too. Thank you for trying it!
