Testimonials
Loved by Students at the University of Cambridge
genuinely forgot it was even running and then i looked up and id done two hours straight
Katie
Student, University of Cambridge
The AI blocked a tab I didn't even consciously decide to open. That's the whole problem it's solving, right there.
Jay
Entrepreneur
I've tried everything. Hugo is the first one that doesn't require me to also fix myself to make it work.
Alex
Founder & CEO
it blocked me from something and i was annoyed for like half a second and then i remembered that's literally what i asked it to do
Keira
Freelance Designer
tab opened, screen went red, tab was gone. didn't have to do anything. that was kind of it for me
Eve

An hour of actual work feels different when nothing interrupted it. I forgot what that felt like.

AI-Powered Focus
The focus app that thinks for you.
Hugo sits between you and distraction. It hides your apps, locks down your browser, and uses AI to silently decide if what you're opening is actually work - so you never have to burn willpower again.
