Focusmate
Virtual coworking for getting anything done.

Focusmate is a virtual body doubling platform that pairs users with an accountability partner over video call to help them stay focused and productive. Users book 25, 50, or 75-minute sessions, join a browser-based video call, share their goals, and work alongside a matched community member. The service is free for up to three sessions per week, with an unlimited paid tier available.
Users book a session, get matched with a community member, join a browser-based video call, share their goals, and work silently alongside each other for the duration of the session.
Anyone who struggles with procrastination or staying focused on tasks, including students, remote workers, and freelancers
