About Catch the Ghost
We give your focus a reason to stay.
Smartphones are the most powerful attention machines ever built, and we can't give them up, because they're too useful. Catch the Ghost exists to even the fight.
We don't block your phone. We don't shame you for picking it up. We give your focus a reason to stay, and we make the reward worth the wait. Every 25 minutes of deep work, a mind that changed history joins your collection. Catch enough ghosts, and you stop noticing the scroll.
What the product actually is
A gamified Pomodoro timer for iOS with a historical-figure collection as its reward mechanic. Focus for 25 minutes (or up to 120, depending on the task) and a ghost reveals itself pixel by pixel. You build a library, earn coins, keep a streak, and climb a leaderboard. Deep Focus is for heavy cognitive work. Shallow Focus is for admin. Thirteen moods let you match the timer to your energy instead of forcing yourself to match it.
The free tier is genuinely free. Coins earned from focus sessions can be spent in the in-app Store on themed ghost packs (Great Strategists, Actors, Famous Japanese, Great Authors, and more). The Pro tier adds Legendary Ghosts, Premium Moods, the Sleep Timer with a 10x coin multiplier, the Ghost Universe (a graph of connected figures), and Full History analytics.
What it is not
It is not a blocker. We do not restrict access to any app on your phone. The thesis is that reward works better than restriction, and ten years of behavioral science agrees.
It is not a guilt trip. Leaving a session costs you a small amount of coins and forfeits the ghost you were catching, real stakes stated plainly, but nothing dies, no onboarding tells you you've wasted your life, and the language never calls you a failure. Streaks exist as a loss-aversion hook, not as the pitch.
It is not a subscription trap. Monthly, Annual, and a founding-member Lifetime tier sit side by side on the pricing page, with the prices stated in full. Apple handles the billing. One-tap cancel.
