the mute box
put your phone
in the box.
a faraday box for people who do deep work. phone in, signal gone, focus on. that's it.
one size · fits up to pro max
mute box
a home for your phone while you work.
a faraday box for your desk. snug fit for one large phone, nested in a recessed felt bed. matte black, soft touch, no logos shouting. printed and assembled in the uk.

faraday lined
no signal in. none out.
not an app. not a setting. a box.
the lining kills every connection the moment the lid closes. no willpower required, no notifications leaking through. the phone is simply gone until you open it.

open · drop · close
the ritual
three seconds. then the work starts.
open the lid, drop the phone in, close it. that's the whole product. what you're left with is the thing you sat down to do.

That's 9.4 years you'll never get back. Not living. Not creating. Not connecting. Just scrolling.
the mission
we built the hardware
that software could not.
every “screen time” app is still an app on your phone, fighting for your attention with everything else. we went physical. a box that puts real distance between you and the machine. no subscriptions. no algorithms. no irony.
this is for
deep workers
your phone is the enemy of deep work. the box is the fix.
remote workers
home is full of reasons to pick it up. put it in the box at 9. take it out at lunch.
founders and makers
the work that matters needs hours, not the gaps between notifications.
anyone with a deadline
if you've ever picked up your phone and forgotten why. this is for you.
what's next
the box comes first.
the bag, the glasses, the cans. they follow if you want them. the waitlist decides what we build next.
we drown in endless noise
and proudly call it ‘connection.’
it's time to mute.
first drop
be first.
we're making the first run of boxes soon. drop your email. one message when the mute box goes live. nothing else.
