A goal-tracking calculator that reveals the true compounding cost of daily distractions. Enter your goals, add your interruptions, and see the cold math of lost focus—hours, missed targets, and extended timelines.
Distraction Cost Calculator turns your goals into math. Enter what you want to achieve, add your daily interruptions, and watch the numbers reveal the true cost of lost focus. No estimates, no vague productivity tips—just brutal clarity.
You think an hour of distraction costs an hour. It doesn't.
When you lose focus on a goal, you don't just lose time—you lose momentum. What took 2 hours yesterday now takes 3 hours today. Push your deadline back 6 months? Your daily requirement suddenly jumps 40%.
Most people never see this compounding effect. They notice they're "behind" but can't quantify by how much, or what it actually means for their daily schedule. Distraction Cost Calculator makes the invisible visible.
Enter your goal and deadline. The calculator breaks down what you need daily, weekly, and monthly. No vague estimates—pure math. You'll know precisely how many productive hours per day you need.
Distracted and fell behind? Simulate what happens if you delay 1, 2, 3, or 6 months. Watch your daily requirement spike. See why pushing a deadline back isn't "just one month longer"—it fundamentally changes what's required of you.
Not everyone has just one goal. Save multiple goals locally. Switch between them. See how the same 2 hours of distraction impact your coding project differently than your fitness goal.
Everything runs in your browser. Goals are saved to localStorage. No data is sent to any server. Your ambitions and distractions stay private.
Anyone with goals and distractions—which is everyone. Founders tracking revenue targets, students managing study schedules, writers chasing word counts, athletes hitting fitness milestones. If you've ever wondered "how much is this costing me?" — now you can see the answer.
