How It Works

Finish Strong, Earn Rewards
Complete your session and earn points, build streaks, and unlock achievements. Over time, you'll see your focus stats grow — real data showing how much deep work you're actually getting done.
Benefits
Beat WFH Isolation
Remote work is lonely. BuckleTime recreates the ambient energy of an office without commuting or small talk. Work alongside other remote professionals who get it.
Create Work Boundaries
Signal to your brain that it's work time, not home time. Joining a BuckleTime session creates the psychological boundary that remote workers struggle to establish.
Stay Accountable
No manager watching, no coworkers stopping by – remote work requires self-discipline. The presence of other focused workers keeps you on track when motivation dips.
Flexible Schedule
Working async across time zones? Early bird or night owl? The room is always active. Drop in whenever your work schedule demands focus.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of remote work is this for?
Any knowledge work you do from home: software development, design, writing, analysis, planning, email management, admin tasks. If you're working on a computer, you belong here.
Can my remote team use this together?
Yes! While the main room is open to all remote workers, you can create private team rooms. Some distributed teams use BuckleTime for 'focus hours' where everyone works quietly together.
How is this different from Zoom coworking?
No video means no pressure to look presentable or stay on camera. You can move around, take breaks, work in your pajamas. It's the accountability of presence without the performative aspect of video.
Will my employer know I'm using this?
BuckleTime is just a browser tab, like any other productivity tool. Many companies encourage virtual coworking as a way to support remote workers' wellbeing and focus.
What if I need to take calls during work?
Just pause your BuckleTime session when you step away for meetings. Resume when you're back to focused work. The tool adapts to the reality of a workday, not an idealized version of it.
