BrainGate: Focus & Learn

Stop mindless scrolling. Start mindful, proactive learning. Use your favorite apps as rewards for sharpening your brain, not a distraction from it.

WANT TO OPEN TIKTOK? PROVE YOUR BRAIN IS AWAKE FIRST.

We’ve all been there: You open your phone for "just a second" and find yourself an hour deep into a TikTok or Instagram rabbit hole. Traditional app blockers are too easy to ignore, and "Screen Time" limits are too easy to bypass.

Enter BrainGate.

BrainGate turns your most distracting apps into rewards for learning. Instead of a hard "No," we give you a "Yes, but..."

To unlock your favorite apps, you must first pass a short, AI-powered quiz. Prove your knowledge in Geography, Math, Space, or Vocabulary to earn 15 minutes of guilt-free scrolling.

HOW IT WORKS

Choose Your Distractions: Select the apps you want to gate (Instagram, X, TikTok, etc.). Pick Your Topic: Choose from Vocabulary, Math, Space, Geography, or General Knowledge. The BrainGate: When you open a blocked app, a quiz appears. Pass the quiz to unlock 15 minutes of access. The Escalation: The more you try to unlock apps in a day, the harder it gets. The quiz grows from 3 questions to 7, rewarding your discipline and testing your focus.

WHY USING BRAINGATE

Positive Friction: We don't punish you for wanting to use social media; we just make sure you get smarter while doing it. System-Level Control: Built on Apple’s native Screen Time API, BrainGate is robust and tamper-resistant. AI-Powered Learning: Powered by AI, our questions stay fresh, relevant, and challenging. Snarky Personality: Our app has a voice. Whether you pass or fail, expect a little "encouragement" (or a reality check) from our built-in personality.
