  BrainShield AI tells you when AI tools are frying your brain — before you feel it.
  
  If you use ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini, Midjourney, or any of 165+ AI tools throughout the day, your cognitive performance is declining in ways you can't detect on your own. BrainShield measures that invisible cost and shows you what to do about it.
  
  WHAT IT DOES
  
  BrainShield runs quietly while you work. It watches which AI tools you use, how long you use them, and how you move between them — then calculates a real-time Wellness Score based on research-backed methodology personalized to your patterns.
  
  When your score drops, you get a nudge. Not a nag — a nudge. With guided exercises that actually help you recover.
  
  No keystrokes. No screenshots. No prompts. No page content. Just timing and tools.
  
  YOUR WELLNESS SCORE
  
  A 0-100 score that reflects how your AI usage patterns are affecting your cognitive performance right now. The methodology is research-backed and adapts to your personal work style over time. Two people using the same tools will get different scores — because they think differently.
  
  Your score updates in real time. You'll know when you're sharp, when you're fading, and when you need to step away.
  
  BREAK NUDGES THAT WORK
  
  When your score drops, BrainShield suggests guided recovery exercises — breathing, eye rest, movement, and more. These aren't random timers. They're timed to when YOU actually need them, based on YOUR patterns.
  
  AI BUDGET
  
  Set a daily AI usage budget in minutes. See how much you've used, how much remains, and get warnings before you blow past it. Simple. Effective.
  
  FOCUS MODE
  
  Timed deep-work sessions that measure your wellness before and after. See exactly how focused work changes your cognitive state.
  
  USAGE INSIGHTS
  
  See which AI tools you use most, how often you switch between them, whether you're taking enough breaks, and how your wellness trends over time. The patterns might surprise you.
  
  PERSONALIZED CALIBRATION
  
  BrainShield learns your patterns and personalizes to your work style. No two users score the same way, because no two brains work the same way.
  
  PRIVACY-FIRST DESIGN
  
  We take this seriously.
  
  - We NEVER collect page content, prompts, AI outputs, or screenshots
  - We NEVER log keystrokes or mouse movements
  - We NEVER read your conversations with AI tools
  - We only track: which AI tool domain is active, for how long, and when you switch
  - All data encrypted in transit and at rest
  - Full privacy policy: https://brainshieldai.com/privacy
  
  If you wouldn't be comfortable with what we collect, we wouldn't collect it.
  
  PRICING
  
  BrainShield has a generous free tier that tracks everything — your wellness score, all 165+ tools, break nudges, AI budget, and Focus Mode. It's the full experience.
  
  Paid tiers unlock deeper insights, longer history, more recovery exercises, and advanced analytics. See https://brainshieldai.com/pricing for details.
  
  WHO IT'S FOR
  
  Developers, designers, writers, marketers, researchers — anyone who uses AI tools daily and wants to stay sharp without burning out.
  
  You already track your steps, your sleep, and your screen time. BrainShield tracks the one thing nobody else does: what AI is doing to your head.
