Due to the COVID-19 outbreak lots of companies need to work remotely and we want to help! We're offering 2 months free of our Business plan to companies impacted by the COVID-19 situation, so employees can have a digital place for calm and focus also when working from home.

Hello. I'm Stefano, co-founder of Noisli.

We are happy and excited to share something we have been working so long and hard on. Noisli 3.0 is a complete redesign and rebuild of our Web app which provides a cleaner and better user interface and some great new features. You can see what’s new here https://blog.noisli.com/introducing-noisli-3-0/

For those of you who don’t know Noisli: we provide background sounds that mask distracting noises around you in order to help you work and relax. You can get inspired by our playlists or mix and match the different sounds and create your own perfect sound environment tailored to your needs. We also offer a timer to help you work in sessions, so to help you prevent burnout (because nobody can concentrate for 8 hours straight), as well as a text editor with a distraction-free writing mode.

Noisli was born in 2013 out of a personal need to fight the lack of noise when we worked from home and to tune out the distractions when we had to work from an open office. We’re on a mission to create a calm place for focus no matter where you’re working from today, and we’re big believers in creating a valuable product which is long lasting and brings you joy while using it.

Come and join us!!

Hi everyone,

I'm Stefano and I am one of the two Noisli co-founders.

After launching on Web, iOS and as Chrome extension, today we just launched our Android app. Yay!!

Quickly about Noisli: Noisli is a service that helps to drown out annoying noises so to better concentrate and to enhance productivity, and it is being used by office workers, developers, writers, students and in general by people that have to work in an environment which is either too loud or too quiet. Noisli is also used to help you to fall asleep, to mask Tinnitus and to help with ADD and ADHD..

Being a very small team and aiming for high quality standard in both experience and design, the development for Android took longer than forecasted and has sometimes been very challenging. But we worked very hard to make it happen and I am very excited of this new addition to the Noisli family.

As for every respectable product, we see the development as an ongoing process and there might still be some bumps along the way, but this is the reason why any feedback you might have is very precious for us and for our mission.

If you have any feedback or comment I'll be happy to follow up :)

Have a nice day! Stefano

Thank you for your feedback, appreciate your honesty.

Of course the text editor is not something for everybody. The users that do appreciate it want to write in a pleasant environment, without worrying to much on formatting. Would love to understand more how Noisli could be more useful for you. Just write me at hello (at) noisli (dot) com

On Noisli we offer different features to support your productivity. Besides the sounds, we also have a Timer (useful especially for time management techniques) and the built in distraction-free Text Editor with Markdown support (Very much appreciated by blogger, students and writers)
