Grounded Momentum is a lightweight focus timer and distraction blocker for people trying to work with more intention. It combines an always-on-top timer with blocking for distracting sites and apps during focus sessions, and it is presented as a way to keep a workday on course.
The interface shown on the site includes a Pomodoro-style flow with a 25-minute focus period and a 5-minute break, plus controls for focus duration, break duration, daily and weekly goals, projects, blocked websites, and blocked apps. The page also describes activity tracking with total focus time, session counts, average session length, daily streaks, recent sessions, and per-project breakdowns. Additional controls include auto-start focus, auto-start break, sound notifications, compact display when playing, and an always-on-top mode. The site also states that it supports cloud sync, which is off by default, and that users can choose projects, lengths, blocks, schedules, and goals.
It is available as a Windows download, marked beta 0.0.1, with a Mac version listed as coming soon. The page also offers browser extensions, described as smaller, single-purpose tools for the browser, including Time Snatch for limiting time on distracting websites, Cadence for customizable Pomodoro-style timers, and GramControl for limiting Instagram distractions. The site says the app is small, does not slow the machine down, takes up less than 10 MB of storage, and has no ads, trackers, or data selling. It also states that the service is built for intentional focus sessions and is not a tool for task creation and tracking.
