An ongoing project for the multiplayer game of attention.

Wise Eyes Open began with a simple frustration: the tools we use to live, work and learn are engineered for individual capture, while the things we most want such as focus, health, meaningful work, durable relationships are inherently shared

We treat willpower as a networked resource. Some of what we publish is research and essays. Some of it is interviews. Some of it ships as software like nomp, our flagship product launching on iOS in May 2026

Our four pillars - Digital Wellbeing, Ongoing Learning, Living Well & Living Long, and Work & Projects are overlapping fields. We work in and around the four areas and ltry to consider where the most interesting design problems live and where we can make a helpful difference

What we believe

• Solo discipline is overrated for some of us. Shared intent is undervalued for most of us
• Most attention problems are coordination problems in disguise
• Tools should make the right thing easier, not the wrong thing harder
• Long term projects, public notes, transparency & small teams
