StayFocus helps you start and finish deep work sessions without getting lost in distractions. Unlike typical focus timers, it combines structured focus sessions, a Brain Dump to capture stray thoughts without breaking flow, task and project tracking, streaks, and live presence for lightweight accountability.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built StayFocus because I had a simple problem: I would sit down to work, open too many tabs, jump between things, and eventually lose track of what I was supposed to be doing.
I tried a lot of focus apps, but most of them felt like timers with extra steps.
So I built StayFocus around a different idea: pick one thing, start a focus session, and stay with it.
You can manage tasks and projects, capture distracting thoughts in a Brain Dump without leaving your session, track your focus history and streaks, and see other people focusing in real time for a small sense of accountability.
StayFocus started as a project while I was learning more about AI-assisted development, but it eventually became a real product that I use myself. I also ended up learning a lot about deployment, CI/CD, security, and running the whole thing myself on Hetzner behind Cloudflare.
It supports English, Arabic, and French, including full RTL support for Arabic. This mattered to me because Arabic support in productivity tools often feels like an afterthought.
I'm still improving StayFocus and would genuinely love to hear what you think.
