A Mac app that blocks work, not just distractions. Set your boundaries and mean them.

Most blockers keep you focused on work. This one keeps you away from it.
You're not distracted. You're obsessed. You love what you're building. That's the problem.
You've told yourself you'll take Sunday off. Then Sunday morning comes and you're "just checking one thing." By noon you're deep in a rabbit hole. By evening you're wondering where the day went.
You know the cost. Conversations where you're not really there. Friends you keep rescheduling. Relationships, hobbies, health — all quietly withering while you ship.
You don't need more willpower. You need a lock you can't pick.
Everyone says life's a marathon. This is for those running it as a series of all-out sprints with blackouts in between.
Sunday night, you set your schedule for the week. Which apps. Which sites. Which hours. Then Fence holds the line.
Choose which apps and sites to block, and when. Do it once, when you're thinking clearly.
No override button. No "just this once." No PIN you definitely remember.
The version of you that set the rules wins. Not the version that wakes up ready to negotiate.
You get 5 emergency unlocks. Total. Lifetime. Use them wisely — or don't use them at all. They're for actual emergencies, not "I just want to check Slack."
Who see what it's costing. Who stopped calling it the price of success.

I'll even take "it's mid"
Surely someone has opinions
The internet usually does
I promise I can take criticism

Real talk: this is an indie project. No VC money. No marketing team. Just me, building something I needed. If Fence helps you, tell someone. If it doesn't, tell me.
Once. Forever. Yours.

I'm Vishal, a researcher who kept missing life while building things I loved.
I'd look up from my laptop and realize I'd been half-listening to my mum for twenty minutes. I'd skip the gym "just today" for six months straight. I'd tell myself I'd take Sunday off, then watch Sunday disappear into "one more feature."
The problem was never time. It was that I couldn't stop. And every blocker I tried was too easy to undo.
So I built Fence. The tool I needed. Maybe you need it too.
