“This is the perfect productivity app: simple yet powerful.”
“Best to-do list I've ever used. I love how it opens on each new tab and is so simple and clear.”
“This extension is worth gold.”
“I feel like this extension has helped me more than any other productivity extension. Instead of simply blocking the sites that distract me so that I just pull out my phone instead, it holds me accountable for what I set out to do. I set a goal, I achieve the goal, then get to treat myself with Facebook. It's perfect positive reinforcement.”
“Clean, easy to start using right away. What else can you want?”
“Simple, clean and effective! The photo of eyes watching you that show up when you try to go to the blocked website is a funny, but also [an] effective touch… Seems to me that it's one of a kind!”
“Great app with a great UX and a sleek design. Time to get work done :)”
“I needed this app so much. Thank you, it's perfect.”
“This is a lovely add-on. I am guilty of randomly browsing stuff on the web during breaks. This gives me the time to do other stuff during my breaks.”
“Simply ideal. It helps you keep tabs on what your goals are, blocks sites temporarily, and has a sleek, peaceful design.”
“Great minimalist todo list extension for Chrome - can't praise it enough.”

FEATURES
prod is more than a combined to-do list and site blocker. Every aspect of prod is designed to make productivity easier and time-wasting harder. Here's a run down of some of prod's features, and how they'll help you fight distractions…
site blocking and redirect
Ever find yourself ready to work, but somehow you end up infinitely scrolling twitter or facebook? Prod puts an end to reflexively searching addictive sites.
Make a list of time-wasting sites. Prod will block those sites and redirect you back to your to-do list. Once you've completed your tasks, you'll be able to visit them again.
new tab to-do list
Prod replaces each new tab with your to-do list. It's simple, intuitive, and all saved locally on your device. No need to login.
recurring tasks + calendar
prod lets you easily create lists of recurring tasks.
e.g. Your morning routine. A bi-weekly call. A second-last day of every seventh month excercise routine?
Recurring tasks will automatically be added to your to-do list. So the thoughtful and wise “today you” can stop mindless “tomorrow you” from ruining everything.
prod also has a simple calendar for adding one-off future tasks.
eyes
Prod is not a strict tool to block distractions. Prod is designed to help you build productive habits. When prod blocks a website and redirects you back to your work. You'll be met with a pair of eyes looking deep into your soul.
Seeing a pair of eyes makes you feel watched, and so, more conscious of your actions. You will quickly become aware of your unconscious habit of visiting addictive websites.
focus on the present
You can't get back all the time you've lost, so the past doesn't exist in prod. Instead yesterday's unfinished tasks are added to today, and all completed tasks are gone forever.
Plan for the future. Focus on the present.
lots more
Prod has lots more tricks designed to keep you on task (and even more coming soon). The best way to find out how it works is to start using it.
It's free and you can get going in minutes.
