In their own words
Cofocus
Cofocus is a web app that connects two people for a 50-minute video session focused on mutual accountability. Users book a time in a calendar and are matched with a partner. They greet each other, share goals, work, then discuss how the session went; a bell and notification mark the end. The maker lists reading, writing, studying, PhD research, side hustles, administration, planning, freelance work and meditation as possible uses. Bookings can synchronize with Google Calendar, with events created for sessions and removed if they are canceled. Cofocus requests permission to view and edit calendar events and stores access and refresh tokens in its database. Its pricing page says subscriptions fund the service, which does not sell data or show ads. Starter costs nothing and allows three sessions a week; Premium costs $4.99 a month for unlimited sessions. The app also lists live coworking rooms, video presence, a focus timer and accountability tools, with two users per room. A free trial is available. Users must be at least 17, or older where local law requires.
