A suite of critical ignoring tools

Less noise.
More time.

Research suggests most of us spend far more time online than we actually want to. These free tools are built to help close that gap by deciding what deserves your attention and what doesn't.

01 The problem

🧠

Attention is finite

Every comment you engage with costs you something. Most aren't worth the price.

Ignoring is a skill

Not every comment deserves a response. Knowing when to disengage is one of the most underrated things you can learn online.

📉

Engagement has a cost

Replying to the wrong comments amplifies noise. Sometimes the smartest move is silence.

The Critical Ignoring Companion

A suite of tools to help you decide what deserves your attention online, and what doesn't. Both tools are grounded in the same skill: knowing what to ignore.

Module 01

Comment Analyzer

Decide whether an online comment deserves a reply or is just an attention trap.

Module 02

Credibility Check

Avoid rabbit holes by checking whether a source or claim is worth your time before engaging.

Paste anything you encountered online and see if it's worth your time. The tool figures out what you're looking at and responds accordingly: whether it's a comment that's an attention trap, a claim worth fact-checking, or something in between.

💬 Comment Analyzer helps you decide whether an online comment deserves a reply or is just an attention trap.

🔍 Credibility Check helps you avoid falling down rabbit holes by quickly checking whether a source or claim is worth your time before you engage with it.
