In the free version, you can use the core features like the Pomodoro timer and Web Blocker for free, without restrictions. Upgrading to Otto Pro on the other hand unlocks other features like tasks, workflows, autoblock and analytics. You can also explore these premium features in the free version with limited functionality.

Otto is designed for professionals and creatives who spend much of their time working on a computer. It's especially suited for disorganized creatives, scattered thinkers, or those who feel their focus often wanders. If you aren't then don't worry, you might still like Otto.

In an ideal world, we'd love to give Otto away for free but we live in a world that lives on the exchange of currency. We have expenses, development costs and well, our lives. We're also a bootstrapped business, that means we don't take VC money to make an app like most young startups do. We like to say we're customer funded, this drives us to make a better product that you will pay for and find useful. And we want to keep this sustainable for as long as we can.

We operate on a freemium business model, allowing you to explore all features with certain limitations. This way, you can experience Otto before deciding to upgrade.

We don't know, it might if we decide to add user accounts and a cloud service. But for now, we don't plan on introducing it.

Yes, you keep it for a lifetime.

No, once the license expires you can't use the pro version. However, you will be downgraded to the free version and you can use that.

You can send it to our email at jbnj@ottoapp.me or tweet at us at @heyyotto.

Yes, please email us within 14 days of purchase. We'll refund you without any questions.

Well in the unlikely case of this happening, if you bought the lifetime plan, we'll give you the entire packed chrome extension so you can run it yourself.

Nope, we respect your privacy and we don't collect any kind of browsing data. We don't snoop and we don't share anything with 3rd parties.
