Context

You open YouTube for one tutorial, and fifteen minutes later you're lost in recommendations. FocusTube keeps the video and removes the rest.

The problem

YouTube's distractions break concentration when you work while watching a video.

What was built

  • An always-on-top player, with no comments or recommendations
  • Adjustable opacity, click-through mode and mini player
  • Search, playlists, resume where you left off
  • Video and audio downloads, subtitles, searchable transcript
  • Summaries and questions about the video with your own AI key (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini…)

What it changes

  • An application published for Windows, macOS and Linux
  • No account, no tracking: everything stays on the computer
And for your project?

Proof that a product can go from idea to real users: design, development, publishing and updates.
