Pick your time-sink apps. Opening one costs a small toll, paid straight into your own savings, toward one real goal: the car, the trip, the guitar.

Either way, you win. You can't lose.

iPhone first. No spam, one email when the gate opens.

How it works

A toll booth for your thumb.

01Pick your sirensInstagram, TikTok, X — whichever apps eat your hours. Uly raises the gate in front of them.
02Set your paceFlat tolls, a rising ramp, or exponential pain. Every open costs; every skipped open is free money kept.
03Watch it pile upTolls gather all week, then move in one trip to your own savings account. Your money, your name, your goal.

Pick your pace

Cheap first open. Expensive doomscroll.

Every pace shows its real prices up front. Three intensities each, from a gentle nudge to no mercy.

Steady

Same price at every gate. Predictable, honest, flat.

50¢→50¢→50¢→50¢…

Ramp RECOMMENDED

Every open adds a step. A slope you can feel.

25¢→50¢→75¢→$1→$1.25…

Exponential

The doomscroll gets expensive, fast. No cap.

25¢→75¢→$2.25→$6.75→$20.25…
Your screen data never leaves your phone.

The gate runs on Apple's Screen Time framework, which processes app usage on the device. We could not see what you open even if we wanted to. We don't want to.

It's your money, in your name, the whole time.

Tolls move between your own accounts, batched weekly so fees never eat your pennies. We never hold your funds and we never take a cut of your tolls.

Questions

Fair asks.

Wait, I'm paying myself?

Yes. Every toll is a transfer from your checking to your own savings, aimed at one goal you set with a photo. The cost you feel at the gate is real; the money never leaves your name. Scroll less, or save more. There is no losing branch.

What happens if I blow past my budget?

Nothing dramatic. No shame screens, no red alerts, your pile never goes down. The streak quietly resets and the road is fresh at midnight.

Can't I just delete the app when I'm weak?

You can. But your pile and your streak live there, which makes quitting feel like abandoning your own money. That is the point: we tied you to the mast on a day you were strong.

When can I get it?

iPhone first, TestFlight soon. Join the waitlist and you'll get exactly one email when the gate opens.
