Meet the Founders

We created Reminder Rock™ as a gentle, screen-free way to stay on track. Inspired by ADHD struggles and the constant pull of phones, it’s designed to be simple, calming, and effective.

That’s why we created Reminder Rock™. It started as a simple idea - a pebble you could hold in your hand that quietly reminds you when time is up. No stress, no noise, no screens. Just a grounding presence to keep you on track.

Our hope is that Reminder Rock™ can help others the way it’s already started helping us - as a tool you can trust, and a little daily ritual that feels good to use
