Stress Signal – Digital Stress Detector Backed by Science

Description

Detects stress levels through typing and cursor behavior to encourage mindful breaks Take control of your digital wellness with science-backed stress detection. Stress Signal is a privacy-focused extension that helps you manage stress through science-backed behavioral monitoring. Based on groundbreaking research showing that typing and mouse patterns are better stress predictors than heart rate, Stress Signal provides timely interventions exactly when you need them most. Stress Signal works by analyzing your unique behavioral patterns—not what you type, but how you type. During a quick 15-minute calibration period, the extension learns your typing speed, rhythm, and mouse movements to establish a personalized baseline. As you browse, it continuously monitors for deviations that research has linked to cognitive load and stress. When these patterns indicate elevated stress levels, you'll receive a gentle reminder to take a mindful break featuring calming breathing exercises. ➤ Privacy is Our Foundation Stress Signal operates entirely within your browser. All behavioral analysis happens locally on your device, ensuring your data never leaves your computer. We never record keystrokes or read any content you type – only timing and movement patterns. Password fields and sensitive information are automatically ignored. There's no tracking, no analytics, and no data collection whatsoever.
