Hey CHT community! We are a new tech company that is trying to do everything right from the start and across all facets of our organization, from product and business model to stakeholders and org culture. We spent a lot of time thinking about this and trying different things, so would love to offer our support to others who are building the next generation of humane tech companies.
Siempo has long been inspired by Time Well Spent. When we started working on the problem three years ago, it was extremely helpful to hear how they framed the problem and articulated ways in which products could be designed in more humane ways e.g. minimizing leaky interactions. We are finally live in the Play Store (!) and welcome your feedback on how we have approached this new type of intervention, that we believe truly attacks the root cause of the problem (smartphone interface design) and meets people where they are at. www.getsiempo.com

Your blog post is fantastic! You described a complicated issue in a clear and concise manner – I learned a lot from it and I highly recommend that others read it as well.
If you are an Android user you can download our public beta in the Play Store. If you are an iOS user you can sign up on our website to follow our journey and be notified when we launch on desktop and iOS (timeline TBD).
