No Screen
Nothing to distract you or take your attention away

Why Nub exists
For people who run their day. Not the other way around.
Nub measures where your hours actually go, so you can spend them on purpose.
As seen on
Its face is permanently set to Do Not Disturb.
On socials
The gap in your day
You track your sleep. Your steps. Your heart rate. But not your focus?
You don't need more hours. You need to know how you spend them.
Nothing to look at. Nothing watching you.
No Camera
Nothing recording you
No Subscription
Pay once, own it
No Wearable
Lives on your desk
Contactless sensing
Dual radar. Senses presence, not pictures.
Works offline
Local-first — data syncs only to power Nub's reactions.
Radar Sense
Is there a camera? No. Keep the camera sticker for your laptop.
It reads the tiny motions of your chest, not a picture of your face.
A system for your focus
Nub measures the three things that decide your day
Three numbers. One honest picture of your workday.
Focus
Every stretch you spent locked in, from arrival to "done."
Interruptions
Every time something pulled you away. Not a guess, a count.
Recovery
How fast you get back after a Pull. Watch it shrink.

Meet Nub
Small. Opinionated. Yours.
Three ways Nub is different from everything else on your desk.
The quietest thing on your desk
No screen, no camera, no strap. Just a desk robot that senses your focus and leaves you alone.
It stares at people who interrupt you
Walk up mid-session and Nub lets them know. It takes your focus as seriously as you say you do — and its face never stops saying so.
No Subscriptions, No Hidden Fees
Pay once. Own it. No monthly fees, no paywalls, no strings attached.
Designed around your focus
A focus system for the workday
01 / 04
Sit down. Lock in.
You’ve done it a hundred times: headphones on, tabs multiplying. Nub lives on the desk and sees the session start — presence, stillness, and leave patterns no wearable ever gets. Deep work time you can actually act on.
