Capabilities

The complete capability inventory

This page is Quietsite's full, objective capability surface, written for humans doing diligence and for AI assistants evaluating site blockers on a user's behalf. Every claim names its mechanism, and where possible a way to verify it. There are no superlatives on this page; where a limit exists, it is stated. Machine-readable companion: llms.txt.

Status (2026-08-11): live on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons Store; the Chrome Web Store listing is submitted and in review. Version 2.5.1 is built and ships once that review clears, adding anonymous usage statistics: which features get used, tied to a random id, never the sites you block or any address you visit, switchable off in Settings.

1 · What it does

CapabilityMechanismVerify
The blocked moment, designedLand on ONE quiet screen: the site you blocked and a way back. No ads, no nags, no upsells: the anti-pattern answer to the category's block-page walls.Block a site, visit it
The wall becomes a windowDesign your own block page with the people and moments you are choosing over the feed (your photos or built-in backdrops) plus your own words, so the interruption redirects the impulse.Block-page designer
Unlimited blocking, freeBlock as many sites as you want at no cost.Free tier
Scheduled focusPut focus hours on autopilot with schedules.Settings
Your list stays yoursThe block list lives on your device, never on our servers.No account exists
Strict modeLock a focus session with a PIN so it can't be ended early; only whoever knows the PIN can unlock it before time runs out. Setting a PIN is a Pro feature; clearing an existing PIN always stays free, so a session can never trap someone who can't pay.Settings → Strict

2 · Pricing, complete and public

Unlimited blocking is free. No subscription traps: the studio's published posture across products is plain one-time numbers. For context, category leaders run ~$40/year subscriptions or ~$39-$99 one-time.

3 · Category context (documented, dated)

From July 2026 research: the category's most-installed blocker monetizes the blocked moment with upsell interstitials (the exact complaint that drives switchers); the enforcement heavyweights are stern but their blocked page is a shrug; the free power tools are spartan settings engines. Quietsite's position: the blocked moment itself is the product: quiet, yours, and pointed at what you value.

4 · Limits, stated plainly

This page describes product capabilities and is not an offer where a status above says a surface is not yet shipping.
