Based on the headline I was expecting an ad. Spoiler alert, it’s an ad.

Not necessarily true. I use LLMs during deep focus to accomplish tasks. And those LLMs are MUCH less distracting than going on Google and getting referred to websites with lots of ads.

Def true when I'm using Gemini with 400k tokens in context... I toggle to Youtube while I wait and have usually started working for a new company by the time I remember to go back to what I was prompting.

Ever been in deep focus, only to break it by Googling one small thing?
You’re not alone — and the cost is way higher than you’d think.
It takes 23 minutes and 15 seconds to regain deep focus after a context switch (UC Irvine).
Frequent tab/app switching can reduce productivity by up to 40% (APA).
Each tool switch adds an average of 9.5 minutes of lost time per hour (Qatalog + Cornell).
And yet… every time we have a question or want to draft an email, we switch tabs. To ChatGPT. To Google. To some other tool that breaks the flow.
That’s why we built Wagoo.ai, an AI desktop assistant that sees what’s on your screen and helps in context, without making you switch apps.
Reading a contract? Ask Wagoo to summarize it.
Writing an email? Ask Wagoo to draft a reply based on what you’re looking at.
Stuck on a report? Ask for help without ever leaving the doc.
Need to search something up? Just include the keyword search in your question.
It works locally, even offline, so your data stays private, and your flow stays uninterrupted.
If you hate breaking focus as much as we do, give it a try.

Opening a different window to ask AI something is also a context switch. It isn't clear why this would lose you less deep focus than switching a tab.

According to the cited study, interruptions (especially "related" ones) actually result in people working harder and faster.
Do I need an account and am I subject to the free plan’s usage limits, if I use a local model? What local models are supported? Anything ollama or llama.cpp?
