We believe that in a world full of distractions, the ability to focus is the ultimate superpower.
MindLink started in 2023 when our founder, Alex Chen, was struggling to complete his graduate thesis. Despite trying every productivity app available, he found himself constantly distracted by notifications, social media, and endless browser tabs.
The turning point came when he combined neuroscience research with simple technology. What began as a personal project—a basic website blocker with a focus timer—soon attracted attention from friends, then classmates, and eventually, thousands of users worldwide.
Today, MindLink is used by students, professionals, and teams in 45+ countries to achieve deep work, eliminate distractions, and reclaim their most valuable asset: attention.
We prioritize deep work over busy work. Every feature is designed to help you achieve meaningful progress.
We listen to our community. Every update is based on real user feedback and actual needs.
We believe productivity tools should be simple, intuitive, and actually reduce complexity in your life.
