Everything you need to know about workplace wellness and Loafing
Loafing is a specialized tool designed to track the "non-work" moments of your day. By logging your breaks, hobbies, and rest periods, it provides a "Loafing Wage"—the dollar value of your time spent recharging—helping you visualize and prioritize your mental well-being alongside your career.
Our app takes your professional salary and calculates your real-time hourly rate. When you log a "loafing" activity, the app calculates how much that break "earned" you based on your salary, turning rest into a measurable, positive metric.
While Pomodoro focuses on fixed work intervals, Loafing is about the quality and value of the break itself. It allows for manual logging and retrospective analysis, giving you a "Words of Wisdom" feedback loop tailored to your specific work segment.
Absolutely. Loafing is ideal for remote workers who struggle to disconnect. It helps define boundaries between "at my desk" and "living my life," ensuring you take necessary mental resets.
Using the Gemini 2.5 Flash model, Loafing analyzes your break patterns and professional segment (e.g., Engineer, Artist, Manager) to provide personalized insights. It helps you understand if you're resting enough to sustain high-level performance.
Yes! Freelancers often forget to account for rest. Loafing helps you track "unpaid" downtime and validates its importance in preventing the burnout that often plagues the self-employed.
You can update your salary and professional segment (e.g., Student, Executive, Blue-collar) in the Dashboard Profile. This ensures the AI-generated advice remains relevant to your specific industry pressures.
These are activities like extended gym sessions, reading, or naps. Tracking these alongside short breaks gives a holistic view of your recovery cycle.
Yes. Scientific research shows that micro-breaks reduce cortisol levels. Loafing gamifies this by showing you the financial "value" of that stress reduction.
Loafing is a proactive tool for burnout recovery. Instead of "quiet quitting," it encourages "intentional resting," which leads to more sustainable engagement during work hours.
While it varies, the "52-17" rule (52 minutes work, 17 minutes break) is a great start. Loafing lets you track if you're hitting these targets and adjust based on your energy levels.
Yes. Your data is protected by Supabase Row Level Security (RLS). Only you can access your salary and activity logs.
The Loafing web app is fully responsive. You can add it to your home screen as a PWA to log activities quickly while on the move or away from your desk.
Since Loafing uses a centralized database (Supabase), simply log in with your account on any device to see your real-time "Loafing Wage" and history.
No problem. You can manually log activities or edit existing ones via the "Manual Logger" on your dashboard to ensure your stats are accurate.
It's a space where users can share their own "Words of Wisdom" anonymously. You can learn how other professionals in your segment manage their time and stay sane.
Our "Scout" periodically analyzes your recent activity and generates "pithy" advice. If you've been working too hard, the Scout might gently nudge you to "loaf" more effectively.
We are working on a PDF/CSV export feature. Currently, you can view your full breakdown and progress summary directly on your dashboard.
This is on our roadmap! We aim to allow users to set their status to "Loafing" automatically when the timer starts.
Loafing is currently free to use. We believe everyone deserves the right to understand the value of their rest.
