Overview

Brain.fm offers science-backed functional music engineered to enhance focus, productivity, and mental states. Unlike traditional music intended to capture your attention, Brain.fm's compositions subtly blend into the background, stimulating your brain with rhythmic pulses to support sustained attention. Developed via rigorous scientific research with academic institutions, including fMRI, EEG, and behavioural studies, Brain.fm aims to optimise your performance and unlock your full potential. Established in 2014, the platform focuses on non-invasive neurostimulation, pursuing a vision for radical personalisation and dynamic sound-driven brain optimisation.

How It Works

  • Brainwave Entrainment: Identifies ideal Hz ranges for desired mental states and embeds them into music to guide your brainwaves (e.g., Beta for focus).
  • Brainwave Synchronisation: Enhances activity and synchronisation across your brain for improved cooperation between regions.
  • Custom-Composed Music: Created by full-time composers based on Brain.fm’s neuroscience research, unique to the platform.
  • Personalised Settings: A short onboarding quiz tailors settings to your neurotype for optimal, boredom-free, and engaging sessions.
  • Distraction-Free Design: Seamless, background music engineered to minimise interruptions; no skipping or playlist curation needed.

Use Cases

Deep Work
Achieve peak productivity and sustained attention for demanding, high-focus tasks.
Creativity & Learning
Foster innovation and improve retention during study or creative sessions with music tailored for these mental states.
Managing Distractions & Motivation
Maintain focus in noisy environments, support ADHD, and boost engagement with motivational modes.

FAQs

Why does Brain.fm increase focus?

Brain.fm identifies optimal frequency ranges for focus and embeds them in music, guiding your brainwaves for sustained attention and improved cooperation among brain regions. The method is scientifically validated and backed by the NSF.

Is this the same as binaural beats?

No, Brain.fm is a more advanced solution than binaural beats and works even without headphones. It impacts advanced brain regions and leverages multiple methods rather than one, making it more effective for focus and creativity.

How large are your scientific studies?

Research and testing involve hundreds of participants with control (placebo) groups to ensure effects are due to embedded technology, not just music. Further details are available on Brain.fm’s science page.

Is this only for people with ADHD?

Brain.fm works exceptionally well for people with ADHD but is also designed for anyone seeking focus improvements. The neural effect level adapts to individual brain needs via a short quiz.

Why is this better for focus than normal music?

Brain.fm actively maintains optimal brainwave patterns for concentration, as opposed to regular music which can cause mental performance to decline over time. The app also removes the distraction of managing playlists or skipping tracks.

How do I make Brain.fm work best for me?

Complete the onboarding quiz on sign-up. This customises the music’s neural patterns to your personal neurotype for ideal focus and comfort.
