Distraction isn’t accidental, it’s the business model.

We tap our phones 2,600 times a day. Each interruption takes 23 minutes to recover. This isn’t a failure of discipline, it is technology designed to fracture attention.

Polaris is a quiet rebellion against urgency. No timers. No streaks. No gamified nudges. Grounded in neuroscience, it protects your attention and reframes time as something to inhabit, not outrun.
