Flowtime counts up while you work — no fixed length. When you stop, press Take a break and Tempo suggests a rest proportional to how long you focused.

Break = focus ÷

One countdown for one task. Give it a length and go.

Counts up from zero. Use Lap to mark splits.

## Every timing method in one page

- Focus cycles (Pomodoro): work, short break, repeat — with a longer break every few rounds. Presets for the classic 25/5, the DeskTime 52/17, and the ultradian 90/30.
- Intervals: a work/rest sprint repeated for a set number of rounds — study sprints, HIIT, Tabata (20/10 ×8).
- Flowtime: counts up while you're in the zone; when you stop, it suggests a break proportional to the focus you just put in — no arbitrary bell cutting you off mid-thought.
- Timebox: one countdown for one task.
- Stopwatch: count up, with laps.

## Made to actually help you focus

The remaining time rides in the browser-tab title, so a background tab still tells you where you are. A hand-written chime marks each change (toggle it off for a silent room), with an optional desktop notification and a "keep screen awake" switch for long sessions. Your focus tally — blocks finished and time focused today — is kept in this browser only.

## No account, no tracking, no catch

Most "free Pomodoro" sites want a login, show ads, and quietly measure your habits. Tempo has no server to send anything to: no account, no analytics, no sound files fetched from anywhere. Save the page and it works with the internet off. Keyboard: Space starts and pauses, R resets.

Same shelf: Key Cutter, Beacon, and the other everyday tools — all local, all private.
