I'm intrigued, but brain.fm requires a credit card for a free trial. Bummer.

Edit: I just checked my email and (in the spam folder) was an email from them with a link that works for 3 days. I'm trying it now.

Not to excuse these dark patterns from shitty products that can't get revenue without tricking people, but privacy.com lets you set up single-use credit cards with e.g. a $1 lifetime limit. This is my go-to for places like this if I really, really want to try it.

FWIW I’ve been using brainfm for about 8 years.

Granted, I got my account with a lifetime subscription back when they were just spinning up, but I’ve used them pretty consistently since then.

You might enjoy the binaural beats and ambient radio on https://ambiph.one as a free alternative (disclosure: it's my site). Not as science-y as brain.fm but it helps me a lot with focus
