We help you create space to thrive, focus and grow.

Freedom was born to help people reclaim their time, focus on what matters most, and become the best version of themselves.

Our Purpose

Freedom was built to solve a deeply personal challenge: the constant pull of digital distractions in a world overflowing with noise.

What began as a simple tool to help people focus has grown into a trusted companion for millions seeking clarity, discipline, and balance across their devices.

We believe that productivity is not about doing more, but about doing more of what truly matters in your work, your passions, and your life.

Empowering Your Potential

Creation Over Consumption
We encourage intentional use of technology so you spend more time creating and less time reacting.
Human-Centered by Design
We build tools that respect your time and support your well-being.
Courage to Challenge the Status Quo
We rethink how technology works so it serves you, not the other way around.
