Hello there Product Hunt! πŸ‘‹ Precisely this time last year, I was at college feeling the anxiety in pressing that dreaded submit button for my coursework, and today I'm doing the same thing but instead looking at the submit button on Product Hunt with an extra feeling of ✨excitement✨ Why build this?πŸ€” Being a student is stressful. Assignments are piling up, exams lurking around corners, and marks on exam papers that can make or break futures. Of course, you'll get help with a tricky question, but no one will help you with managing to stay on top of all that without crashing and burning out, and that's what I saw so many of my peers suffering through when I was at college. What did I build? πŸ— So I built Focai, a Notion template that's really so much more! Focai keeps you on top of your mental energy when planning and going through your day. You can know you have the mental headroom for a 2-hour super study session or when you need to take a step back and relax to come back fresh and sharp. Everything in the template is centred around getting students to reach their peak performance, staying organised with to-do lists that drop into your calendar and guided focus sessions to get you hyper-productive. This was the tool I wish I had as a student! πŸ™Œ I'd love to know what you guys think of having mental energy awareness in your schedule; I can't wait to hear your feedback in the comments!

How do I know the menatl impact of a task? Do you have specifications for this, or do you have to decide based on your gut feeling?

@philipp_stelzel Hey there, Philipp! πŸ‘‹ We're classifying events into different groups of activities that a student typically undergoes, such as "lectures", "revision" and "assignments" to name a few, and worked with psychologists from the University of Brighton to establish energy impact baselines for those tasks. From there, students fine-tune those energy impact scores at the end of guided focus sessions to get the best fit for them. I hope that answered your question, if not send me a message and I'll see what I can do :)
