Growing up, I (Arnav) struggled with attention and focus. I spent endless time trying to complete tasks without making significant progress. I was putting in the time, but where were the results?

Fortunately, through many trials and tribulations, I began my academic career in psychology and neuroscience. Here is where I came to understand the power of neuroplasticity and how it can be harnessed to overcome attentional challenges (among other mental states). After years of instilling habits and making incremental improvements, I developed a degree of productive focus I am proud of.

Now, with a wealth of experience working in Technology as a UX Specialist, I'm on a mission to democratize productivity. I was fortunate to meet Saurabh on this journey as he has the technical background and vision to make this mission possible. Together, we founded Propel Neurotechnology Inc. and created Propel Focus. Our goal is to help professionals with attentional challenges improve their focus and achieve a lifestyle they're proud of.

Our journey has been a deeply personal one, and we've taken a unique approach to creating our solution. Rather than simply building a Neurotechnology solution to improve focus, we've taken the time to deeply understand the needs and frustrations involved in focusing. Through several interviews, we discovered that the primary goals for people struggling with focus are to be productive and make time for life experiences they value.

We've worked tirelessly to create a solution that truly meets the needs of our target audience. We ideated several solutions and converged on the one that we believe would improve focus and give people their time back. We iterated on this solution with real user feedback, and when it made sense to our users, we started building it. While Saurabh focused on the neurotechnology, I focused on creating user value and an exceptional user experience.

Our journey has been filled with challenges and triumphs, and we're more committed than ever to creating a product that helps people achieve their full potential.
