The Cost Of Idle Drift
Most productivity tools track tasks. They do not interrupt distraction in real time. IdleJolt exists for the exact moment attention slips.
ADHD Transition Gaps
Attention can shift fast; external interruption helps reset task intent before time disappears.
Remote Work Blind Spots
No office cues means fewer interruption boundaries. IdleJolt acts as that boundary.
Designed For Interrupt-and-Reset
Simple by design: no dashboards, no streak gamification, no cloud account friction.
Threshold Precision
Set from 20 seconds minimum to 60 minutes maximum based on your work style.
Hard-Stop Alarms
Six profile options including Full System stack (klaxon + nuclear + smoke + air raid + boss knock).
Intentional Breaks
Snooze when needed, then auto-resume monitoring so breaks do not become derailments.
Always Available
System tray behavior + start-on-boot keeps it active without adding more visual clutter.
Target Fit
If your revenue, deliverables, or focus blocks depend on staying in task cycles, this is built for you.
ADHD Professionals
Use external interruption as a reset cue when context-switching or doom-scrolling starts.
Freelancers
Protect billable windows by cutting silent idle bleed before it becomes unrecoverable.
Remote Teams
Self-managed accountability without surveillance software or cloud dashboards.
Students + Solo Builders
Stay inside focused study/sprint windows with immediate interruption feedback.

FAQ: Objections Before Checkout
Does this track my data or send activity logs to a server?
No. IdleJolt runs locally on your machine. No account and no cloud dashboard are required for core functionality.
What if Windows says "Unknown Publisher"?
That can happen with early indie builds before code-signing is fully rolled out. Keep downloads limited to your official checkout page and linked release files.
How are updates delivered?
The app checks updates in the background and users can run manual checks from settings. Downloaded updates apply on next app launch.
Is this a subscription?
No. Current pricing is Early Access one-time ($4.99). Refund handling is defined by your Lemon Squeezy checkout policy.
