What is Motivv?

Motivv is a Mac focus timer that helps people understand the quality of their work time, not only the minutes they logged. It combines app activity, focus blocks, and consistency into a live work-rate score, then turns each session into patterns people can act on.

The Product

Live work-rate scoring — Motivv tracks active work patterns during a timer session and surfaces a real-time score.
Session targets — Users can set a focus target around their own rhythm, whether that is a shorter sprint or a longer deep-work block.
Focus history — Session timelines let users revisit how their work rate changed across a completed session.
Six-month activity heatmap — A GitHub-style view makes long-term focus patterns visible at a glance.
Streaks and daily stats — Current and best streaks, plus daily focus time, give the dashboard useful day-to-day context.
Per-app breakdowns — App-level tracking helps users see which tools support focused work.
Private by default — Motivv runs on the user's Mac and syncs through their private iCloud, without accounts or analytics servers.

My Role
