A timer that takes
focus seriously.
Bentodoro is a free, browser-based productivity timer built for board exam reviewers, students, and anyone who does serious focused work.
Bento + Pomodoro
Bento — the Japanese art of arranging food into a compartmentalized box. Every item in its own space. Nothing mixed, nothing wasted.
Pomodoro — Francesco Cirillo's time-management technique from the late 1980s. Work in focused intervals. Rest deliberately. Repeat.
The interface reflects both: each feature lives in its own bento card. Timer, heatmap, streak counter, calendar — all in one view, arranged how you want them, resized to what matters most today.
25 min
Work
Full focus. One task. No multitasking. The Pomodoro clock runs.
5 min
Short break
Step away. Don't think about work. Let the last session settle.
15–30 min
Long break
Every four sessions, take a full break. Recharge completely.
Reverse mode: Bentodoro also supports flipping the sequence. Start with a break, earn work time. Useful when you need a warm-up, or simply want to reframe the psychology of the session.
Board reviewees
Track daily sessions, visualize weeks of consistency, and manage a packed review calendar. Built around the pressure of high-stakes exams.
Students
Study blocks with hard time limits. A streak worth protecting creates daily accountability that turns showing up into a habit.
Professionals
Structure for workdays that need it. Timer, task calendar, and activity tracking in one view. No switching between apps.
Remote workers
Routine for unstructured days. Set your sessions, protect your focus time, and see your progress build over weeks.
