Unshrimp
yourself.
A shrimp lives on the edge of your screen. Upright when you've just stood, curling one segment at a time as the hour goes by. At sixty minutes the notch asks. Tap I stood up and it hops. That's the whole product — and it works because you can't unsee it.
Live recreation. Watch it curl; tap I stood up.
The ask, the hop, the sea
One orange card asks. Every stand cheers. A record turns the island into water and the shrimp swims a lap. Click a moment to play it.
Posture you can see
The shrimp is you
An upright shrimp when you've just stood up. The longer you sit, the more it curls — one segment at a time — until, at the hour, it's fully shrimped and the card turns orange. You feel it before you read a number.
No camera, no sensor
The sitting clock runs off keyboard and mouse activity your Mac already reports. Three minutes of silence during office hours counts as standing — you walked away — and the clock resets on its own.
One ask, once per sit
At the threshold the notch says “Unshrimp yourself” — a curled shrimp, minutes seated as a bar, and two buttons: I stood up, or 5 more minutes. Once per sit, never during a meeting.
Unshrimped.
Tap I stood up and the shrimp hops, confetti falls, and the line rotates: “Spine says thanks.” “Stretch counts.” Beat your best day this month and the island becomes sea — the shrimp swims a lap.
Your worst hour
Stands per day, longest sit, and a 30-day grid in coral. Most people's worst hour is three to four in the afternoon. Now you'd know yours.
Threshold is yours
Thirty to a hundred and twenty minutes. Office hours shared with Hydrate, Reminders and Eye Rest, so the whole tray goes quiet together after six.
Questions
How does it know I'm sitting?
It doesn't watch you — it reads how long since the last keyboard or mouse event, which macOS exposes to every app. Continuous input means you're at the desk; three quiet minutes means you left. There's an “I didn't stand” correction if it guesses wrong.
Where does the shrimp live?
On the side dock, next to Hydrate — a thin panel on the left or right edge of the screen. Collapsed, the glyph is the shrimp itself, curling as you sit. The ask and the cheers appear in the notch.
Will it interrupt a meeting or a screen share?
No. Asks are dropped — not delayed — while a meeting is on your calendar, while you're sharing your screen, or while another takeover is up. It waits for the next sit.
What's the celebration?
Every stand: the shrimp hops and confetti falls, with a rotating line. A new monthly record turns the whole island into sea and the shrimp swims across it. Reduce Motion turns every moment into a plain one-line card.
Is any of it Pro?
The reminder and the stand count are free. The 30-day grid and longest-sit history are Pro — included with every paid plan.
Spine says thanks.
The reminder is free on every install. The 30-day history comes with any paid plan — $4.99/month, or $49 once for Lifetime.
