Why We Built DeskBuddy

The Balance Between Focus and Wellness

Modern workdays are mostly spent at desks - switching tabs, chasing deadlines, and forgetting to blink. In the pursuit of productivity, well-being often takes a back seat, leading to fatigue, distractions, and burnout.

DeskBuddy was created to address this gap. The goal was simple: build a tool that keeps both focus and wellness in mind, reminding users to move, breathe, and stay present while accomplishing daily tasks.

Whether studying, working from home, or powering through office hours, DeskBuddy helps maintain balance - one Pomodoro, one stretch, one mindful breath at a time. True productivity starts with feeling well.
