Focus Time Protection
Set weekly goals, auto-schedule deep-work blocks, and protect them from interruptions
Configure a weekly focus goal in hours, pick preferred times (morning, afternoon, evening), and BusyBee.Day auto-schedules focus blocks around your meetings. Blocks are protected: no other event can overwrite them. Track progress against the weekly goal in analytics.
Configure weekly goal, block sizes, and preferred times - BusyBee.Day handles the scheduling.
Cos'è focus time protection?
Focus time is a protected block of uninterrupted, no-meeting time on your calendar. It is the practice of scheduling deep work the same way you schedule meetings - as a non-negotiable commitment. BusyBee.Day automates the scheduling and the protection.
How to schedule focus time in BusyBee.Day
Set a weekly goal, configure preferences, and let the system auto-schedule.
