Social accountability

2
Monotasking
Members are encouraged to concentrate on one thing at a time – combatting overwhelm and encouraging deeper focus
3
Body doubling
Members work alongside each other via video call, using 'body doubling', a technique often recommended to people with ADHD

Time blocking
Scheduled time for staying on task brings greater structure to the member's work day
5
Hawthorne Effect
Members are encouraged to stay on camera so that they feel the accountability provided by the group

Proven benefits of FLOWN
FLOWN is not another productivity strategy, learning resource or version of a to-do list. It is a tool that can be used while you study to enhance focus, structure the day, and get important work done.
Our members thrive with FLOWN
"Sprint towards progress"
I love FLOWN and encourage my team to get stuck into the platform. We use Flocks to focus together and sprint towards progress. It's a no-brainer because it boosts their achievement and sense of wellbeing.

"Achieve more than I'd do on my own"
I've got severe ADHD so my work is often interrupted and I frequently feel overwhelmed. FLOWN helps me work calmly, get through my admin, and achieve more than I'd do on my own.

"Increases my confidence"
FLOWN has completely changed how I work. A few hours of really meaningful deep work helps me feel like I’m really achieving something. I'm more productive now than I have been for a long time.
Hari Berrow
PhD student & scriptwriter
"Focus on big tasks"
FLOWN is perfect to focus on big tasks. I get the headspace to get stuck in without being distracted by calls and emails. I get work done in less time than it would take me previously just by cutting out the distractions.
Ashleigh Kelly
Head of Finance
"Block out distractions"
As a developer, I really value being able to block out distractions and work in a focused way, uninterrupted, for blocks of time. I find Awe Walks great for switching off, too!

"Moments of connection"
What I get from Flocks: concentration, productivity and… connection! FLOWN has a magic formula that helps me focus, while weaving in moments of connection – wonderful for remote workers.

How FLOWN helps postgraduates
Dealing with extended and often lonely periods of self-directed study is a challenge.
With postgraduates forming a quarter of our members, FLOWN offers an ideal community for those in long term study to network, focus together, and be supported in their work.
"I end up doing so much more..."
FLOWN has helped countless postgrads like Hari to connect with likeminded others, find accountability, and complete their projects with greater ease.
✔ Find community
✔ Reduce stress
✔ Boost attainment
Key use cases
Problems with focus
Those working or studying remotely are more likely to struggle with work-life boundaries and focus. FLOWN provides the structure and community to help members do both.
Mental health
FLOWN's toolkit can help people with emotional issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress. Time management, social interaction, and accountability are all central to the platform.
ADHD
People who have or suspect they have ADHD find that FLOWN helps them stay on task, often while they go through the lengthy process for getting a formal diagnosis.
Get help to succeed with ADHD
For those with ADHD, the challenges of studying to complete coursework or prepare for exams can be especially daunting. Especially if managing symptoms that are yet to be diagnosed.
But with formal ADHD diagnoses taking around 18 months to complete,
many students are left with minimal help in the meantime.
FLOWN is a non-medical intervention
suitable both before and after ADHD diagnosis
With FLOWN, those with ADHD gain access to...
🎯 A ready Access To Work-approved resource for those with ADHD
🎯 Supportive online community - 1/3 of members identify as ADHD
🎯 Unlimited virtual coworking for those struggling with focus
🎯 ADHD-specific chat groups to connect and share insights
🎯 Accredited 1:1 ADHD coaching available via the FLOWN platform
🎯 A trove of ADHD articles, resources and practical insights
