Frequently Asked Questions

Is Sophia's pre-work clarity tool completely private?

Yes. Sophia is a local-first application. When you use the pre-work clarity tool, all your data is stored exclusively in your browser's IndexedDB using PGlite. Your entries are never sent to a cloud server — only anonymous, content-free usage signals are collected to see whether the tool works.

Do I need to create an account to use the pre-work clarity feature?

No account is required. You can start using the pre-work clarity practice immediately. Because data never leaves your device, there is no need for user authentication or logins.

Can I use the pre-work clarity tool offline?

Yes. Once you load the Sophia app, it can function completely offline as a Progressive Web App (PWA). You can practice pre-work clarity even in airplane mode or without an internet connection.

A 2018 study in Frontiers in Psychology found that brief mindfulness practices before work tasks significantly reduce cognitive load and improve task-switching performance.
