Study alongside people with the same hunger
People and Teams are how you meet others with the same hunger: friends and direct messages, and teams that work together inside The Zone.
You do the work alone. You do not have to do it by yourself.
People
Find someone by their @handle or from their card on the Arena, and send a request with an optional note of up to 280 characters, so they know why. Once they accept, you can message each other directly.
The Friends studying widget on your desk shows who is in a focus block right now, so you can sit down at the same time.
Connections are mutual: a request is accepted or declined, and blocking someone ends contact in both directions.
Teams
A team holds up to 25 people. Join one with an invite code, or open yours to the team directory so others can find it.
The work happens inside The Zone. Team widgets on your desk show the crew and who is focusing, a shared board holds the session's tasks that anyone can claim and close, and the team chat keeps the conversation in one place.
Start together with a synced start, and keep the focus chain going: it counts how long everyone connected has been focusing at once, and breaks when anyone pauses.
Why study with others
Accountability is easier when someone can see you working. A friend in a focus block makes it harder to drift, and a team that starts together tends to finish together.
Every hour still counts for you: your sessions in a team land on your own heatmap, your profile and the Arena.
Questions about teams
Do I need a team to study with friends?
No. Friends can see when you are studying and message you without a team. A team is for working together on the same board, at the same time.
Are teams free?
Yes. Teams, friends and direct messages are free on every plan.
