I thought no one needed a new Pomodoro timer in 2025 — 240 users yesterday proved me wrong

I launched StudyFoc.us 1 week ago, a clean, aesthetic Pomodoro timer with a built-in site blocker and Chrome extension.

At first, I doubted anyone still needed a new Pomodoro tool in 2025. I stopped counting how many Pomodoro timers I’ve seen because there are just way too many out there.

But yesterday, 240 people used mine, completely organic traffic, no ads. Just shared it with a few friends and posted in some study/productivity communities. The feedback has been surprisingly positive.

That gave me the confidence to keep building. My short-term goal is to hit 1,000 daily active users, then start building the mobile app and eventually monetize with premium features.
