When Focus Feels
Out of Reach
You sit down to work. You open the thing. And then... nothing. Your brain won't cooperate. The tab stays open but you're somewhere else entirely.
🧠
It's not a discipline problem
Willpower gets you to the desk. But focus is a brain state — and your brain needs the right conditions to enter it. Silence can be too empty. Most music is too distracting.
🎵
Regular music fights your focus
Lyrics activate your language centers. Catchy melodies demand attention. Spotify's "focus playlists" are just someone's lo-fi playlist — there's no science behind them.
⚡
Your brain needs the right signal
Research shows that specific audio patterns — ambient textures, amplitude modulation, brainwave entrainment — can nudge your neural oscillations toward sustained attention.
How workmusic helps you focus
One click. Full-screen immersion. Science-backed audio that works with your brain, not against it.
Immersive ambient soundscapes
27 handcrafted moods — from cozy coffee shops to deep space stations. Each one is a full-screen visual environment with generative ambient music designed to hold your attention without demanding it. No lyrics. No hooks. Just texture and atmosphere.
Neural Mode — brainwave entrainment
Toggle on 🧠 Focus mode and we layer amplitude modulation at 15 Hz (beta waves) into the music. Your conscious mind doesn't notice it, but your neurons synchronize with the rhythm — promoting the sustained attention state that deep work requires. Read the science.
Zero friction
No account. No signup. No settings to tweak. Open the page, pick a mood, press play. That's it. Space bar pauses. When you're in flow, the controls fade away and you're left with nothing but the scene and the sound.
Built for people who do deep work
💻
Developers & engineers
Code requires sustained concentration. One context switch costs 23 minutes. The right audio environment keeps you in the zone.
✍️
Writers & creatives
First drafts need flow, not perfection. Ambient music creates a cocoon where words come easier and the inner critic quiets down.
📊
Analysts & researchers
Deep reading, data work, and complex analysis need distraction-free environments. Ambient sound masks office noise without adding new distractions.
🎓
Students
Studying for exams, writing papers, learning new material. Your dorm isn't quiet and your brain isn't cooperating. We help with both.
Backed by research, not marketing
We don't make medical claims. We use well-studied techniques and are transparent about what the evidence does and doesn't show.
Method
Amplitude Modulation
Published in Nature Communications Biology. Measurable increases in focus-related brain activity.
Method
Binaural Beats
2018 meta-analysis of 22 studies found positive effects on cognition, memory, and attention.
Method
Isochronic Tones
Stronger brainwave entrainment than binaural beats per EEG studies. No headphones required.
