iPhone
Stop impulse buying with a cooldown timer + AI product research. BuyBlock researches prices, reviews, and alternatives while you wait. Decide with data, not dopamine.
You spend over $1,800 a year on things you don't even want. BuyBlock fixes that.
BuyBlock is the impulse purchase cooldown app that gives your brain a pause — and researches the product with AI while you wait. By the time the timer ends, the dopamine fades and you decide with data.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Add the product — paste a link, snap a photo, or describe it
2. Cooldown starts — choose 24, 48, or 72 hours
3. AI researches while you wait — price checks, review synthesis, cheaper alternatives
4. Timer ends — read the report, then decide: buy it or skip it
5. Track your savings — see how much you've saved by skipping impulse purchases
AI RESEARCH REPORTS
Every product you add gets a personalized AI report:
- Price analysis: is this actually a good deal?
- Review synthesis: real pros and cons from verified buyers
- Cost-per-use: what this really costs over its lifetime
- Cheaper alternatives: better options you might have missed
- Secondhand availability: same product for less on resale sites
- Verdict: buy, skip, or wait for a better price
SAVINGS DASHBOARD
Watch your savings grow. BuyBlock tracks every purchase you skip and shows you:
- Total money saved
- Monthly breakdown
- Skip streaks and milestones
- Buying pattern insights
BUILT FOR MINDFUL SPENDING
Whether you're doing a no-buy challenge, managing ADHD impulse spending, or just want to be more intentional with money — BuyBlock gives you the pause and the data to make better decisions.
