When it happens
The blocker · plain-English rules the AI enforces
What gets blocked
Write what you don't want to see, in plain English, and the AI judges every screen against it. Add as many rules as you like; switching one off keeps it for later rather than deleting it.
Time limits · reset at midnight
Your daily budgets
Loading…
Give one of your rules a daily allowance in minutes. Go over and that activity is blocked until midnight, then it resets. A limit is always on — it ignores the rule's schedule and keeps counting even when the rule itself is off.
Add a time limit
A block of time, committed to one task
Start a mission
Say what you're working on and for how long. While it runs we check that what's on screen fits — generously, so looking something up still counts. Run it out and it's a success; drift off three times and it isn't.
What are you doing?
What it involves, and what a detour still in service of it looks like — the more you say, the fairer the judgment.
See an example
…and how are you feeling?
How long?
2 hoursWhich device?
One mission per device. Pick a single device when each one is for something different.
Every one, kept
Past missions
Every mission you've run, how it went, and what you said you'd do. Look back here when you're deciding what to commit to next.
Holes you cut on purpose
Never counts against a mission
Apps and sites that a mission simply isn't judged on. Texting a friend during “write the book” isn't the work and isn't drifting off it — this is where you say so, once, instead of writing it into every mission.
This affects missions only; it never changes your rules or time limits. It is empty on purpose. Every line is a hole in the promise a mission represents, so nothing is pre-filled.
Days since anything · counted from your own word
Day counters
Count the days since anything you want to stay away from. Add a counter, pick the day it started, and it climbs on its own. If you slip, say so — the run restarts, but your lifetime days and best run never reset.
Start with three · a day off is not a miss
Daily habits
Add a few small daily habits and tick them off as you do them. Pick the days each one is actually due — a day you leave out isn't a miss, it's simply a day it isn't owed. Start with three, and give them two weeks before you add a fourth.
Prepare in the calm hour
Danger-zone warnings
Choose places where you would like to receive notification warnings. Warnings can give you a heads up that you have entered a situation where you have a history of slips, warnings and rule infractions. It's just a heads up to be intentional about your thoughts and actions.
One question a day · private from partners
Check in
Answer once a day: how did the last 24 hours go, how are you feeling, and what's been going on. Everything you've ever written is kept below, yours to edit or delete. Correct a tag we got wrong and your correction sticks for good.
You watch the sky to see what's coming
The Observatory
What your own record says about you, in plain sentences: when the hard hours fall, what tends to come before a slip, and what's been working. Read it in a calm moment and plan for what you find.
Your account · how StarBlocker behaves
The control room
Your sign-in, your plan, your devices and what reaches you. The one thing worth setting up before you need it is the unlock task, further down — it's what stands between a hard moment and switching a rule off.
Every Use Mission
Turn this on and every time you wake a device you'll be asked what the session is for, then judged against your own answer like any mission. It ends when the device sleeps.
Leave it on everywhere, or scope it to certain places or hours — only at home, or only during work — under Where and when to ask below.
Switch off the ones you don't want. Everything stays in the bell either way — muting only stops new ones being raised.
People you chose · alerts, never your screen
Accountability partners
Invite up to 2 people you trust. They're alerted when you break a rule, plus anything else you choose to share. They can see your rules, never your screen — no screenshots, no sites, no words.
Invite a partner
You get a link to hand them yourself — nothing is emailed on your behalf, and nothing reaches them before you approve them.
What members reported · busiest first
Flagged posts
The AI layer already passed these — that's why they're here. Removing takes the post off the page and closes every flag on it; keeping records that you looked.
Access removed · forum only
Banned from the forum
The reason is shown to them word for word, so write it to be read by them. They keep the rest of the app.
Contact-detail requests
Waiting on you
Someone you've been talking to would like to swap contact details. Nothing of yours is shared unless you approve, and you choose exactly what to give. If you decline, they're not told — they simply never hear back, and they can't ask again.
Answered yes
Shared with you
People who accepted your request, and how they asked to be reached.
Creator applications
People who applied at /creators. Approving mints a contributor with an affiliate code and emails them their link.
Blog approvals
Posts submitted by contributors. Read them here (admins only), then approve to publish or send back with a note.
Contributors
Blog authors and affiliates. "Subscribed" is how many of their referred signups are currently paying — the basis for payout.

Name creates a byline. An email that matches an existing account links it and grants that person contributor access (so they can log in and write). A starter affiliate code is generated if you leave it blank.
StarBlocker for desktop
The desktop app
The app that watches the screen itself. Install it on every computer you use — one account, the same rules everywhere.
The setup steps appear the moment a download starts — four on macOS, three on Windows.
We'll email you the moment the desktop build is ready.
Email me when it's readyiPhone & Android — beta
On your phone
Install the StarBlocker beta for iPhone* or Android. They sign in to this same account and share these same rules, missions and time limits — a budget spent on your phone is spent on your computer too.
* On iPhone, StarBlocker judges everything you do in Safari — the same AI, the same rules. It cannot see inside other apps: those can be blocked or time-limited, but never judged.
Choose a plan
StarBlocker monitoring requires an active subscription. No payment is collected yet — pick a plan and flip the switch to simulate it.
What you get
Delete account
Removes your account and everything in it, on every device, and cancels your subscription. This can't be undone.
What you do to earn a change while your rules are running: switching a rule off, editing one, deleting one, loosening a time limit, or changing this setting. Pick it in a calm moment — you'll meet it in a bad one.
When none of your rules are active — you're somewhere none of them apply — none of this is asked for and everything is free to change.
Signals
AI Usage
Compare calls, tokens and cost per call for the selected period. Dates use your local timezone. Costs in USD; zero recorded cost does not necessarily mean a free call. The OpenRouter user token is what OpenRouter's Activity dashboard groups spend by; sessions there read acct-<id>_dev-<device>_<day>.
Reputations
Model
Which model classifies each scan. Prices are what the provider charges per million tokens; the projection is what that works out to for your screens, so you can price a switch before making one.
Compare models on one screenshot
Runs the same image through each selected model with the same prompt, and reports what each one decided, what it cost, and how long it took. Nothing here is logged as a scan — it won't touch your infraction meter or your cost history.
Cost by model
What each model actually costs you per scan, measured from real usage. Average per scan is the comparable number — total spend mostly reflects how many scans each model happened to run.
Recent scans (with model)
Most recent scans, including which model classified each one.
