Why this works when other tools don't

Corporate productivity apps fail because they feel like surveillance. pauza works with your team, not against them.

Gamified focus

Employees play, not get policed. Streaks, challenges, leaderboards — all opt-in.

Real rewards

Tokens convert to Amazon, Starbucks, Visa cards, or time off. Paid from your wallet.

Privacy by design

You see aggregate metrics only. Individual data stays with each employee — technically, not just policy.

Team analytics

Activation, focus trends, challenge outcomes. Enough to show ROI, not enough to surveil.

Team challenges

Design vs Engineering. Sales vs Marketing. Friendly competition that people actually enjoy.

Works with Apple Screen Time

Built on Apple's native APIs. No MDM, no spyware, no weird workarounds.

How it works

1

Invite your team

Send a magic link. They install pauza on their phone.

2

They play, privately

Each employee sets their own focus goals and challenges.

3

Tokens turn into rewards

Real gift cards, days off, or charity donations — paid from your wallet.

4

You see the impact

Aggregate metrics only. No individual surveillance, ever.

Questions we get asked

How is this different from screen-time trackers or productivity apps?+

Screen-time trackers report on people. pauza rewards them. Employees opt in, set their own goals, and earn real gift cards paid from your wallet — no manager ever sees an individual's phone usage. It's a carrot, not a dashboard of shame.

What data can admins actually see?+

Aggregate team metrics only: activation rate, total focus minutes, challenge outcomes, reward payouts. Individual app usage, location, and personal data never leave the employee's device. We enforce a minimum cohort size of 3 on every chart so you can't reverse-engineer an individual from a team of two.

How do employees redeem rewards?+

Tokens earned through the app convert into Tremendous gift cards (Amazon, Visa, Starbucks, 1,000+ brands) or charitable donations. Your wallet funds the payouts — you top up once a month or set an auto-top-up threshold. Unused tokens never expire from the employee's perspective.

Is it GDPR / SOC 2 compliant?+

GDPR: yes — we sign a DPA, act as processor for org data, and employees act as data controllers for their personal usage. A right-to-erasure request deletes the user's personal record within 30 days. SOC 2: Type II audit is planned but not yet complete; ask for our current security questionnaire.

Do we need to install an MDM or give up any control?+

No. pauza runs entirely on Apple's Screen Time APIs on each employee's personal or work phone. No MDM profile, no device enrollment, no kernel extensions. If an employee uninstalls the app, they stop earning rewards — that's the only lever.

Can we pilot it with one team before rolling out company-wide?+

Yes. Create one team, invite 5-20 people, run for a month. You only pay for active seats. If the pilot doesn't produce numbers you like, cancel — we'll help you export the aggregate metrics so the pilot isn't a black hole.
