What is Inflow?
Inflow is an AI-powered Chrome extension designed to help you maintain focus during work sessions. Unlike traditional website blockers that are rigid, Inflow uses semantic similarity models to understand the content of every page you visit and compare it to your focus topic. When you start to drift off-topic, it provides gentle nudges and smart suggestions to get you back on track.
All processing happens locally in your browser, ensuring your data never leaves your device. Inflow offers features like smart focus sessions, real-time focus heatmaps, session history, and fully configurable settings including focus goals and similarity thresholds. It is available as a free Chrome extension on the Chrome Web Store.
