About DeepMinute

Who Built DeepMinute

DeepMinute is an independent focus timer project built by Anton Perch. It started as a practical tool for deep work and creative practice: open one page, set a time, and begin without account walls, heavy onboarding, or noisy UI patterns.

Why It Was Built

Many timer tools are overloaded with features before users can begin. DeepMinute was built to prioritize execution over setup. The product focuses on practical essentials: reliable timer behavior, quick presets, interval mode, local-first settings, and clear visual feedback during work sessions.

The idea is to reduce activation energy. If starting work requires too many decisions, attention gets consumed before meaningful progress begins. DeepMinute tries to remove that friction.

How The Site Is Maintained

DeepMinute combines a browser-based timer with a growing editorial library of practical guides. The product and supporting content are maintained together so users can move from theory to action without leaving the site.

That means the project is maintained both as a usable tool and as a small knowledge base for focus, study, and creative workflows.

Who It Is For

DeepMinute is designed for students, developers, writers, designers, and artists who benefit from structured focus blocks. It is useful for anyone who wants a practical concentration tool that supports both short sprints and longer deep-work sessions.

Artists can use interval mode for gesture drills and sketch rounds. Students can run timed study cycles with active recall. Knowledge workers can use Pomodoro-style blocks for planning, writing, and problem solving.

How It Works

DeepMinute runs in the browser and stores settings locally on your device. You can customize duration, notifications, and interval behavior without creating an account. This local-first approach keeps usage fast and private for everyday sessions.

If you are new to structured focus, start with the guides section: Focus Guides. It includes practical content on Pomodoro, deep work, and study workflows.
