How Cognix will work

Blockers say no. Cognix says “try this.”

  1. You reach for the scroll.

    Out of habit, you open the app you wanted to avoid. Cognix notices.

  2. Cognix steps in.

    Instead of the feed, you get a quick, playful learning round. Bite-sized. Zero homework energy.

  3. You leave with something new.

    One fact you didn't know a minute ago. Over time, the reflex points somewhere better.

Most app blockers

Blocked. Now you're bored, and the urge wins.

Cognix

Blocked, then a quick round. The urge gets somewhere better to go.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Straight answers about where Cognix is today.

What is Cognix?

Cognix is an app blocker with a twist. When you reach for an app you're trying to avoid, it steps in and turns that moment into a quick, playful learning round instead of the feed.

How is it different from an app blocker?

Blockers stop you, then leave you staring at a locked screen with the urge still there. Cognix gives that urge somewhere better to go: a bite-sized round you actually enjoy, so you walk away with something new.

Has Cognix launched? When will it be available?

Not yet. Cognix is in development and there's no confirmed launch date. Join the waitlist and you'll hear as soon as it's ready to try.

What happens after I join the waitlist?

Your email goes on the list. When Cognix is ready to try, we'll email you. You may also get the occasional update about Cognix, and you can unsubscribe anytime.

Which devices will it support?

That isn't confirmed yet. We'll share platform details with the waitlist first.

Does joining cost anything?

No, joining the waitlist is free. It takes one email address. Join the waitlist
