What is the Pomodoro Technique?

Developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s, the Pomodoro Technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. Each interval is known as a pomodoro, from the Italian word for 'tomato', after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student.

How it works

  • Decide on the task to be done.
  • Set the pomodoro timer (traditionally to 25 minutes).
  • Work on the task until the timer rings.
  • Take a short break (5 minutes).
  • Every 4 pomodoros, take a longer break (15-30 minutes).

Why use this timer?

In an age of constant digital distractions, single-tasking is a superpower. This timer removes the friction of tracking time mentally, allowing you to externalize your focus structure. Plus, with our Audio Notifications and Browser Title Updates, you can work in another tab or window and still stay on track.
