A calm pause before autopilot. Clearlight helps you build the skill of noticing urges and choosing consciously — not through blocking, but through awareness.

You sit every morning. You've done retreats. You notice your breath a dozen times a day. And then, at 10pm, you catch yourself 45 minutes deep in Reddit with no memory of opening it.
The awareness you've trained doesn't follow you to your screen. Not because you lack discipline — but because there's no moment of contact. No gap between impulse and action. Your thumb moves faster than your attention.
Blockers can interrupt behavior, but they rarely train the underlying skill. If noticing doesn't grow, the habit comes right back.
Clearlight creates that gap and helps you strengthen it.A lightweight loop that helps awareness show up in the moment, then reinforces it later.
You see four options: Task, Craving, Autopilot, Reactive. The wording and layout rotate so you can't go on autopilot with the gate itself.
If it's craving or autopilot, you choose: Just a craving — I'm good, or Continue anyway. For craving, you quickly rate the urge first.
A few minutes later, Clearlight asks how it's going. Did you do the task? How is the urge now? Still scrolling on purpose?
Weekly coaching sessions surface your patterns, distortions, and progress so the system evolves with you.
You always have the choice. Clearlight just makes sure you're the one making it.
Inspired by how Noom changes your relationship to food, Clearlight changes your relationship to your screen through repeated awareness reps.
Every gate interaction, check-in, and coaching session builds a picture of your patterns. Weekly debriefs make the invisible visible.
Clearlight flags distortions like rationalization, permission-giving, and autopilot loops in your real device behavior.
Works across browser, desktop, and phone. One practice, everywhere you reach.
Clearlight was created by a YC alum and 10-year Vipassana practitioner who kept catching himself in the same loop: sit in the morning, scroll at night.
No one had built the tool he actually needed — not a blocker or a timer, but a Noom-inspired skill trainer grounded in CBT and contemplative practice.
"The practice is seeing clearly. Clearlight brings that to the one place we forget to look."
