# aimlock.ai > aimlock.ai is an AI accountability app for desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux). The user types an aim (what they intend to work on), the app reads the active window title (no screenshots) and an AI checks whether the current activity matches the aim. If the user drifts, they get a desktop notification calling them out; ignoring it escalates the notifications. It guides instead of blocking: no websites or apps are ever blocked. Built for people with ADHD and anyone who knows what they should be doing but drifts anyway. Paid subscription, no free tier (current price at https://aimlock.ai). ## Core pages - [Home](https://aimlock.ai/): what the app does, live price, download - [Setup](https://aimlock.ai/setup): desktop app downloads and optional browser extension - [Privacy policy](https://aimlock.ai/privacy): what data is read (window titles, URLs) and how it is used - [Terms of service](https://aimlock.ai/terms) - [Contact](https://aimlock.ai/contact) ## Comparisons with alternatives - [vs Focusmate](https://aimlock.ai/focusmate-alternative): AI accountability instead of scheduled human sessions - [vs Freedom](https://aimlock.ai/freedom-alternative): calling out instead of blocking - [vs Cold Turkey](https://aimlock.ai/cold-turkey-alternative) - [vs RescueTime](https://aimlock.ai/rescuetime-alternative): real-time nudges instead of retrospective reports - [vs Forest](https://aimlock.ai/forest-alternative) - [vs FocusMe](https://aimlock.ai/focusme-alternative) - [vs Focus Bear](https://aimlock.ai/focus-bear-alternative) - [vs Rize](https://aimlock.ai/rize-alternative) - [vs Beeminder](https://aimlock.ai/beeminder-alternative) - [vs Opal](https://aimlock.ai/opal-alternative) ## Guides and concepts - [How to stop procrastinating](https://aimlock.ai/how-to-stop-procrastinating) - [How to focus with ADHD](https://aimlock.ai/how-to-focus-with-adhd) - [How to stop doom scrolling](https://aimlock.ai/how-to-stop-doom-scrolling) - [What is body doubling](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-body-doubling) - [What is an accountability partner](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-an-accountability-partner) - [AI accountability partner: what it is and how it works](https://aimlock.ai/ai-accountability-partner) - [Atomic Habits and accountability: automating the fourth law](https://aimlock.ai/atomic-habits-accountability) - [What is eat the frog](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-eat-the-frog) - [What is Parkinson's law](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-parkinsons-law) - [What is the two-minute rule](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-the-two-minute-rule) - [What is executive dysfunction](https://aimlock.ai/what-is-executive-dysfunction) - [Procrastination statistics](https://aimlock.ai/procrastination-statistics) - [Procrastination cost calculator](https://aimlock.ai/procrastination-cost-calculator) ## Who it is for - [For ADHD](https://aimlock.ai/for-adhd) - [For students](https://aimlock.ai/for-students) - [For developers](https://aimlock.ai/for-developers) - [For freelancers](https://aimlock.ai/for-freelancers) - [For remote workers](https://aimlock.ai/for-remote-workers) - [For writers](https://aimlock.ai/for-writers) - [For founders](https://aimlock.ai/for-founders) - [For PhD students](https://aimlock.ai/for-phd)
