THE COMPANY
About Biro.dev.
What is Biro.dev?
An independent software company in Los Angeles. We build assistive software for everyday follow-through, for adults with ADHD and other brains that work differently.
About Biro.devWhat are you building?
AddvancedFocus is our lead app and is in development. OpenCall is also in development as a native iOS prototype. Seven more projects are research concepts: they aren’t announced products or release commitments, and each page shows one everyday example.
See where each project standsHow do you decide what to build first?
We weigh everyday needs, what we can build well, access needs, privacy and feedback. That tells us which idea is ready for a prototype.
What shapes the next buildADDVANCEDFOCUS
About the app.
What does AddvancedFocus do?
It shows one next action with a tiny first step, helps you start a focus session, and keeps your place when you’re interrupted. It also covers quick capture, a small Today plan, things you’re waiting on, routines and optional shared household tasks.
Explore AddvancedFocusWhy is it spelled AddvancedFocus?
The double “d” is on purpose. It’s a nod to ADD, an older name for ADHD, and the people we’re building for.
AddvancedFocus questionsWho is it for?
Adults with ADHD who want help starting tasks, making plans and getting back on track after interruptions. Needs vary, so the support should be flexible.
Who it’s being designed forWhich devices will it run on?
It’s being developed for iPhone, Apple Watch, Android and the web. None of these has been released yet.
Where you’ll use itWhen can I get it, and what will it cost?
It hasn’t been released on any platform. There’s no release date, price or beta date yet. We aim for practical value at an accessible price, with costs and limits explained clearly.
Will I need an account?
Everyday use is designed to work on your own device, without needing an account. Before release, we’ll explain what the app stores and how to delete it.
Where you’ll use itIs AddvancedFocus a medical product?
No. It’s being developed for everyday support, not diagnosis, treatment, or a replacement for professional care.
AddvancedFocus questionsTHE WEBSITE DEMO
Trying it in your browser.
What is the website demo?
A scripted demo of three ideas from the app: a first step, a short focus session and a return note. You can also bring your own task. It isn’t the app itself.
Try the website demoWhat happens to what I type into the demo?
It stays in the open page’s memory. It isn’t sent to an AI service, saved to browser storage or connected to your accounts. Refreshing, leaving or starting fresh clears it.
Demo privacy detailsUPDATES AND PRIVACY
Email and your information.
How do product updates work?
Enter your email and we’ll send a confirmation link from updates@biro.dev. Updates start only after you confirm, and you can unsubscribe at any time. Testing invitations are a separate option that’s off unless you choose it.
Follow AddvancedFocusDoes sending a message sign me up?
No. The contact form and the updates signup are separate. Sending a message never adds you to a mailing list.
Contact form privacyHow do I have my information removed?
The privacy page explains what each form stores and how to ask for removal.
Website privacyACCESSIBILITY
Using this website.
Is this website accessible?
WCAG 2.2 Level AA guides the design. It’s a goal, not a certification: automated checks run on every page, but screen readers and physical devices still need hands-on testing.
Read the testing recordHow do I report a barrier?
Tell us the page, what you were trying to do and what happened. You don’t need to share a diagnosis or other health information.
