Unlook · Healthy screen habits
Better breaks, quietly arranged around your work.
Unlook is a calm, intelligent screen-wellness companion for people who spend much of their working day in front of a computer — a system that knows when to step forward, and when to disappear.
In development · macOS & Windows planned at launch · local-first by design
Unlook doesn’t interrupt your work.
It improves the way you work.
A day with Unlook
A system that earns its interruptions
Most break tools are timers with an alarm attached. Unlook is built the other way around: it watches for the right moment, asks quietly, and makes the break itself worth taking.
- 01
Unlook counts your focus
Start a session and work. Unlook counts valid focus time while you are at the keyboard — without reading your screen, your applications, or your keystrokes.
- 02
An invitation, not an alarm
When a break falls due, a small invitation settles at the top of your screen. It never steals focus, never repeats, and after ten minutes it simply leaves — the miss recorded as a fact, not a failure.
- 03
Twenty seconds somewhere else
Start, and the Bead opens into a full-display Moment: a calm field that asks you to look somewhere far away. Pause it, make it small, or end it early — every path is honest.
- 04
Back exactly where you left off
When the Moment resolves, your windows are revealed in place and focus returns to whatever you were doing. Today records what happened — facts, never a score.
The invitation arrives without taking keyboard focus, and the countdown is availability — not a deadline you have failed to meet.
The Unlook Moment
Try one, right here
The flagship Eye Reset: twenty seconds of looking somewhere far away, inside a full-display environment that never rushes you. Press Start.
A real 20-second Eye Reset, exactly as the desktop app choreographs it. Space for pause is the app's shortcut; here, every control is a button.
Today & History
Your day, in facts
Today shows what Unlook is doing for you right now; History makes every calculation checkable. Skipped and missed are just facts about the day — nothing is scored against you.
Built with care
Small decisions, made carefully
Sessions & schedules
Balanced, 20-20-20, or Custom — with working days, working hours, and quiet time built into the rhythm.
Natural pauses
Step away from the desk for long enough and that counts as your break. No nagging, and nothing waiting to be made up.
One invitation at a time
Snoozing never stacks reminders up. You are told when the same invitation returns — and nothing else arrives in between.
Every display, one Moment
One calm surface reaches across all of your screens at once, and steps aside the moment you ask it to.
Today & History
Focus time, Unlook Moments, longest stretch — and a checkable record you can open, correct, or delete.
Light, dark & accessible
Light and dark themes, high-contrast and reduced-motion equivalents, full keyboard operation, and text scaling to 225%.
Local-first
“Unlook is local-first. The focus schedule, sessions, opportunities, Moments, outcomes, settings, and meaningful wellness history stay on the device.”
— Unlook’s data-flow contract
Stays on your device
Your history lives in a local database with verified backups and a portable export. Reading, exporting, and deleting it keep working even after a subscription ends.
Never observed
Unlook is designed never to read window titles, URLs, documents, or keystrokes — its engine counts focus without knowing what you are working on.
Quiet by default
Remote crash reports and analytics are separate, unchecked choices. Trying Unlook starts no tracking at all.
