## Description

<strong>ProcrastiScan</strong> helps you stay focused and productive by continually checking if the content you're viewing aligns with what you actually want to be doing.  

As you browse, a <strong>Relevance Score</strong> is calculated for every tab, based on how similar it is to your task and your descriptions of relevant/distracting content. If the score is higher than 0.5, content is considered relevant; lower scores indicate distractions. An averaged <strong>Focus Score</strong> reflects your current level of focus. If it falls below 0.5, ProcrastiScan assumes you're distracted and activates one of the interventions you’ve selected.  

<strong>Features</strong>:
- <strong>Smart Distraction Recognition</strong>: All your browsing activity is scored in real-time based on meaning rather than just keyword matching
- <strong>Dashboard</strong>: See at which times you were focused or distracted
- <strong>Tab Blocking</strong>: Automatically detect distracting tabs and block them
- <strong>Chatbot</strong>: Engage in a focused conversation with an AI assistant to get back on track or reflect on why you got distracted (requires a local LLM connection, highly experimental)
- <strong>Procrastination List</strong>: Recognize and save distracting tabs for later
