How it works

01
🔒

Lock your distractions

Choose which apps get gated. Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, YouTube, whatever drains your focus.

02
⚔

Face the boss

Try to open a blocked app and a boss fight appears. Puzzles, reflex tests, memory challenges. Hard. On purpose.

03
🏆

Win or walk away

Beat the boss? You earned your 5 minutes. Can't beat it? Guess you're staying productive.

DIFFICULTY SCALING

The more you crave it, the harder it gets

First unlock of the day? A medium challenge. Fifth attempt? A Souls-like nightmare. BossGate adapts to your behavior, making repeated distraction exponentially harder to access.

GENRE VARIETY

Every boss is different

Pattern recognition, split-second reflexes, memory sequences, logic puzzles. You can't memorize your way out. Every challenge is fresh, every fight is new.

SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY

Your boss count tells the truth

Fought 12 bosses today? Everyone knows you tried to procrastinate. Fought zero? You were locked in. Your battle record is your honesty meter.

THE RESEARCH

Every fight is logged — here is what they show.

A fight is every blocked-site visit

Open Instagram while it is gated? That is one fight. Win or lose, it counts. Difficulty scales with your streak — Medium → Hard → Brutal — so the more you try, the more you earn it.

The 55-session result

Across 55 logged sessions, what we saw:

9.1%

40%
with default block list

After the fight

Your streak and fight history are saved — progress carries across attempts. A recovery window for the toughest days is coming soon.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I block YouTube on Chrome?
Install the BossGate Chrome extension, pick YouTube as a gated app, and click it whenever you want access. A boss fight appears — beat it in 60 seconds to unlock YouTube for up to 20 minutes. Lose, and you stay focused.
What is the best website blocker for Chrome?
Most website blockers just hide content or lock you out entirely. BossGate turns blocking into a game — you can earn access by beating a boss fight. It works on any site: Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, and more.
Can I block multiple distracting websites?
Yes. Free plans block up to 2 apps. Pro ($29/year) lets you block unlimited sites — Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Facebook, Netflix, and any site you add to your gate list.
How does the boss fight unlock websites?
When you try to open a blocked site, BossGate intercepts the request and launches a boss fight. Win and the site is unlocked for your chosen reward duration (5–20 minutes). After time expires, it blocks again automatically.
Does BossGate work on Microsoft Edge too?
Yes. The extension is published to the Chrome Web Store, but the same .crx works on any Chromium-based browser including Microsoft Edge and Brave.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. BossGate is free to install and lets you block up to 2 apps with all boss types included. No credit card required. Upgrade to Pro anytime to block unlimited sites and sync gates across browsers.

Every other app begs you not to scroll.
BossGate says: earn it.

Productivity shouldn't feel like punishment. It should feel like a challenge worth winning.
