Before you lose focus,
we notice it first

CogniFlow is an intelligent AI assistant running locally on your device, which detects early signs of cognitive overload and helps you regain focus before frustration, performance drops, or burnout appear.

Focus support
before overload appears

CogniFlow was designed as a predictive system that identifies early signals of cognitive overload based on anonymous behavioral patterns — without content analysis and without recording images.

No content analysis

The system does not record camera images or keyboard content. Only aggregated behavioral indicators are processed.

Local processing

Analysis is performed directly on the user’s device, without network latency or dependence on the cloud.

Informed consent

The user decides whether to participate in the voluntary pilot mode and can disable it at any time.

CogniFlow’s architecture was designed in the spirit of privacy-by-design and ethical AI, with a focus on the user’s long-term wellbeing.

How CogniFlow works

The system was designed to support focus and mental health without violating user privacy.

CogniFlow team – HackYeah

1. Signal analysis

CogniFlow observes subtle work patterns — typing speed, mouse movements, and shifts in attention — without recording content or images.

2. Fatigue prediction

A local AI model detects early signs of cognitive overload and declining concentration before the user notices them.

3. Gentle support

The system suggests short breaks, rhythm adjustments, or micro-interventions, helping maintain focus without interrupting flow.

Privacy from day one

CogniFlow was designed with privacy, transparency, and full user control over data at its core.

Local processing

All analysis is performed directly on the user’s device. Biometric and behavioral data is not sent to the cloud or stored on external servers in standard operation mode.

No sensitive data

The system does not record camera images, keyboard content, or detailed personal data. Only anonymous behavioral patterns are analyzed.

Full user control

The user decides which information is processed and whether anonymous statistics may be optionally synchronized across devices.

Aligned with EU values

The project complies with the European approach to data protection, principles of ethical artificial intelligence, and the idea of technology that supports human wellbeing.

Voluntary pilot mode

CogniFlow can operate in two modes. By default, it protects full user privacy, and optionally allows participation in a pilot program that helps develop future versions of the system.

Standard mode (default)

  • • Full local processing on the user’s device
  • • No storage of raw data
  • • No data sent to the cloud
  • • Maximum privacy and control

Pilot mode (optional)

  • • Voluntary user consent
  • • Collection of aggregated, anonymous data only
  • • No personally identifiable information
  • • Support for the development of CogniFlow 2.0

In pilot mode, only anonymous system performance indicators are used (e.g. fatigue level, focus duration, responses to interventions). The data contains no content, images, or personal information and is used exclusively for research and development purposes.

The user can disable pilot mode at any time and delete locally stored data.

Participation in the pilot program and any optional synchronization of anonymous metrics with cloud infrastructure are entirely optional and disabled by default.

Technology and architecture

CogniFlow was designed as an offline-first system, where the cloud plays a strictly auxiliary role.

Local processing (Edge AI)

Artificial intelligence models operate directly on the user’s device, analyzing behavioral and physiological signals in real time.

This approach minimizes latency, increases reliability, and eliminates the need to transmit sensitive data.

Microsoft Azure (supporting role)

Microsoft Azure services are used exclusively as a supporting environment during the development process and optional pilot phase — without participating in real-time processing of user data.

  • • Azure Machine Learning — experimentation, validation, and development of AI models
  • • Azure Application Insights — stability and performance monitoring during pilot testing

The system architecture ensures full offline functionality, while cloud integration is optional and strictly aligned with privacy principles and informed user consent.

The CogniFlow team

CogniFlow is developed by a four-person, interdisciplinary team combining expertise in artificial intelligence, software engineering, and user experience design.
