Life is messy. We struggle, we toil, and we fail. We try again, only to fail once more. But maybe, just maybe, something eventually works out. Still, at its core, life is full of uncertainty.
Sometimes, we just need a little structure, a gentle push, a reliable friend, and some data to help us make sense of the chaos.

Here's a little question for you. Does this sound like you?
You struggle to do things and procrastinate.
You get distracted and mindlessly browse the web a little too much.
You wish you had some structure you could rely
You wish there was something that could reduce friction.
That's okay buddy. It's most people too.
Here's how Otto can help — Keep scrolling.
A focus timer and a blocker to help you work mindfully.
Otto is designed to be mindful. The focus timer helps you do your work mindfully, especially when you struggle to do things or find it hard to get started.
It uses the Pomodoro technique to break up your day into smaller manageable sessions. That way it gives you a little structure, so you don't overwhelm or distract yourself
It also has a website blocker that runs alongside the timer. Whenever you're in a work session, Otto blocks all websites from your blocklist.
Unlimited Pomodoro sessions
Block any website during sessions
Reverse Pomodoro
Turn Pomodoro into Task timers
Stop yourself from mindlessly going to distracting websites.
It's normal to be distracted, but don't let it hold you back. Otto also works as a standalone website blocker, you can set up a schedule to block distracting sites during specific hours of the day.
You can also block entire sites or just the specific parts that distract you. Otto makes you feel calm and makes you mindful when your mind wanders.
Schedule websites to be blocked
Block specifc URLs
Customize to run as per your liking
Temporarily unblock whenever you need (soon)
This app is great! I could do everything with out distractions now.

What friends
say about Otto
Otto works really well for its intended purpose, and it's helping me fight my internet addiction and make better use of my time. The UI is very simple and clean, and the illustrations are adorable. It's very helpful all around!

Simple but effective. Easy to customise, nice passive incentives. It does exactly what you're asking of it and it does it well.
— Uriel
After using this for a couple months, I really don't have anything negative to say about it. Otto does exactly what it is designed to do, block distractions and help you be more productive. Even without the upgrade, it still works well to boost productivity.
— Joel
Simple, reliable focus tool. I've used it long-term for blocking distracting sites and timeboxing work. It does exactly what it promises without unnecessary complexity. Solid option if you want fewer decisions and more follow-through.
— Kevin
definitely the best pomodoro timer i've used. i love it! the interface is clean and simple, and it's helped me stay consistent with studying. although, i wish there was an app so i could use it outside of chrome!
— Pearl
Love the UI, very intuitive and easy to use. The popup count down is super useful in motivating and reminding me to continue working. The blocker is also super useful, sometimes I forget I even have this on. Wonderful product!
