Building a focus tool for tech employees to fight digital distraction—am I hitting the right pain point?

Hey Indie Hackers,

After spending the last few days engaging in the comments, I finally unlocked my posting rights! I'm a developer building my first B2B SaaS, and I wanted to get some honest feedback on the problem I'm trying to solve.

I’m looking at the digital wellbeing and productivity space. Specifically, how much company growth and engineering time is lost when employees at big tech companies get distracted or mentally drained by digital noise and toxic content online.

Instead of building a rigid blocker that completely cuts off access, I want to create a tool that helps tech professionals use their existing apps safely, filtering out the noise so they can protect their focus and peace of mind.

Before I dive deep into the code, I want to validate this with a lean landing page to see if the market actually feels this pain.

For the founders and remote teams here:

Do you find digital fatigue and distraction pulling your team away from deep work?

Would a company invest in a digital wellbeing tool if it directly led to better focus and growth?

Would love to hear your thoughts!
