Источник

It is a browser extension that observes lightweight activity signals, such as tab-switching patterns and active/idle time, and sends a concise activity summary to a hosted backend for AI evaluation.

When the pattern looks worth interrupting, TouchGrass offers a contextual break suggestion instead of relying only on a rigid timer.

Источник

The backend and landing page are hosted on Render, so end users do not need to install Python or run a local server.
