The missing piece

You track your sleep. Your steps. Your heart rate. But not your focus?

That’s the data that determines your output. Until now, you had no way to see it.

Built for privacy. Built to last.

No Camera

Nothing recording you

No Screen

Nothing to distract you or take your attention away

No Subscription

Pay once, own it

No Wearable

Lives on your desk

Contactless sensing

60 GHz and 20 GHz proprietary radar tech

Offline Mode

Data stays on your desk

Radar Sense

Is there a camera? No. Keep the camera sticker for your laptop.

It reads the tiny motions of your chest, not a picture of your face.

Focus session tracking

Sees when you arrive, lock in, drift, and return — turning raw presence data into a real picture of how your day went.

Interruption count

Knows every time you got pulled away. Not a guess — a count. Because you can't fix what you can't see.

Refocus time

Tracks how long it actually takes you to get back on track after leaving. Spoiler: it's longer than you think.

Introducing

The first device that tracks your productivity, not just your vitals

Because what happens at your desk matters more than what happens on your wrist.

No Subscriptions, No Hidden Fees

Pay once. Own it. Your focus data stays on your device — no monthly fees, no paywalls, no strings attached.

It stares at people who interrupt you

Walk up on someone's focus session and Nub will let you know. A tiny, opinionated desk companion that takes your deep work personally.

No screen, no camera, no strap

Just sits on your desk and does its thing. No display to check, no wearable to remember, no camera watching you work.

Designed around you

Your desk. Your way.

01 / 04

Deep work without a wearable.

You’ve done it a hundred times. Headphones on, tabs multiplying, and the watch on your wrist has no idea you’re actually in flow. Nub lives on the desk — it sees presence, stillness, and leave patterns wearables never get. Deep Work time you can act on.

Four ways Nub fits the workday
