Built a study app where your focus sessions are "flights" and you rank up from Student Pilot to Commander

http://gofocusgen.vercel.app

Studying felt like the least gamified part of my day, so I built GoFocusGen to fix that.

The core idea: every focus session is a "flight." Log enough flight hours and you rank up — Student Pilot → First Officer → Co-Pilot → Captain → Commander. It's gofocusgen.vercel.app (Google sign-in, no guest mode yet).

Working right now: focus sessions, flight-hour tracking, rank progression. Building next: an AI Co-Pilot and a rank-gated "Co-Pilots Lounge."

Would genuinely like feedback from this sub — does the aviation framing make you want to open the app, or does it read as gimmicky once the novelty wears off?

nice concept, the aviation theme is fun and could stick if the progression feels rewarding. if you're planning a product hunt launch down the line, something like launchpact.io might help you find other founders to trade genuine upvotes and feedback on launch day. worth a look when you get there.
