PomoFlow is a productivity extension that blends structured time management, intelligent distraction blocking, and on-device computer vision to make every focus session count. It’s built to ensure your timer reflects actual, uninterrupted work - not just time spent with a tab open.
At its core, PomoFlow uses the Pomodoro Technique to help you manage your workload in focused intervals, separated by short breaks to maintain energy and attention. You can fully customize your work and rest durations to match your personal productivity rhythm.
During a focus session, PomoFlow automatically blocks the websites you choose. The blocking happens instantly, preventing you from accessing distracting pages until your break starts. This eliminates the temptation of “just checking” something mid-session, keeping you fully engaged with your current task.
What sets PomoFlow apart is its real-time presence detection powered by BlazeFace, a lightweight and efficient face detection model optimized for the browser. BlazeFace runs entirely on-device, detecting whether you are in front of your screen without sending any image or video data anywhere. If you step away, the timer automatically pauses. When you return, it resumes - ensuring that every tracked second is active, focused time.
The extension is built using Chrome’s service worker architecture, allowing it to run efficiently in the background without consuming unnecessary system resources. Face detection is handled in an offscreen context, so it operates seamlessly without disrupting your browsing experience.
All presence detection, timer control, and blocking logic are processed locally, prioritizing user privacy and minimizing latency. Your data never leaves your machine, meaning you get the benefits of advanced computer vision without compromising security.
PomoFlow is ideal for students preparing for exams, developers working on complex projects, remote professionals balancing multiple priorities, or anyone aiming to build deep work habits. By combining Pomodoro timing, distraction blocking, and BlazeFace-powered presence tracking, it offers a level of focus accountability that goes beyond traditional timers.
With PomoFlow, you’re not just counting time - you’re making sure every second truly counts.
