Sukha: Why Waste Your Money on Another Focus App?

No, Sukha's not only for devs - it just happens to work well for us (as well as writers and designers who are also laptop-pounders). Sukha blocks the apps and sites that break concentration mid-debug, plays music built for long stretches of coding, and keeps a task list so the next step in a ticket is always visible.

Yes, we built this like an Oura Ring for focus. You can review your work and see where you're killing it and what got you killed. And all the data are private to you. I can't see 'em, Tony can't, your EM aka Sauron can't.

As you read this, Sukha's blocker already works across websites in any Chromium browser and we're working on a desktop app to help with native apps on your computer.

Sukha acts as a complete flow state app by actively managing external interruptions, not just internal distractions. When a session begins, Sukha integrates with Slack to automatically update your status to "In a Sukha session" and mutes incoming notifications, creating a protected environment that single-feature apps cannot provide.

About your annoying PM…welllllll…there's only so much Tony and I can fix. Maybe you can set your time-zone to Malaysia and pretend you're asleep; the modern equivalent of putting on giant noise-canceling headphones and aggressively avoiding eye contact.

You totally can manually assemble a focus stack and not pay us anything. Sukha, however, is a complete flow state app that automates the transition into deep work. Instead of relying on generic playlists and manual toggles, Sukha provides neuroscience-backed flow music, integrated task tracking, and distraction blocking in a single click, helping developers reach peak productivity with zero setup friction.

Sure, you can manually turn on DND, open a Pomodoro app, hunt for the perfect lo-fi synthwave playlist, and tell yourself you'll just check Hacker News "one last time." Or, you could just click our big green Play button. We built this because we are developers, we are inherently lazy about setup, and we just wanted an "I am ready to code now" button.

Sukha won't rebuild your mental model of the codebase for you, but it removes the interruptions that force you to rebuild it in the first place. Its AI coach can also help break a tangled bug into a short list of things to check next.

Sukha is built for individual deep work first. Writers, developers, and designers all use the same core toolkit, focus music, distraction blocking, task management, and an AI coach, tuned to how each type of work actually happens.

Not yet. We've been getting requests for this, but not enough for a small team like Tony and I to develop and support a full Linux app.

Yes - Linear, Todoist, Google Tasks.

If you need Asana, Jira or something else (not the Post-Its on your monitor), email me or Tony (support@TheSukha.co) so we know to prioritize it. We're building as quickly as our little fingers can type.

Nothing to install. Sukha runs on Mac, Windows and Chromebook, in any Chromium browser (Chrome, Edge, Arc, Brave), so it sits alongside your editor and terminal instead of asking you to adopt another desktop app.

Blocking covers websites and apps on your computer and on your phone, so the tab you would have opened mid-debug is closed off on both. There is also an optional free Chrome extension if you want the blocking to reach further across your browser.
