Who is Welockin for?

Anyone who wants their attention back. Students and deep-work people first, since it is made by students and used at universities around the world. It is equally for people quitting something real (adult content, gambling, dating-app compulsion or gaming), where a block you can switch off is no block at all.

What that means in practice

  • For focus, the gentler levels are usually enough: a PIN or a cooldown delay is a speed bump, not a wall.
  • For quitting a compulsion, Nuclear Mode exists precisely because willpower alone has already failed.
  • It is used across 25+ universities from Lausanne to Tokyo, which is where most of the early feedback comes from.
