About Mind28: The Cognitive Pause for ChatGPT
Stop brain activity from dropping 50% when you use ChatGPT.
Mind28 inserts a Cognitive Pause so you reflect, re-engage neurons, and send sharper prompts.
WHY YOU NEED MIND28
MRI studies from MIT & Cambridge show “Cognitive Off-loading” can slash neural engagement by up to 55 % whenever we lean on AI assistants. Less brain-load → weaker memory, dull ideas, generic responses.
WHAT MIND28 DOES
Mind28 is a Chrome extension that lives inside ChatGPT (and any AI text box). Before your prompt leaves the keyboard, a quick, customisable Cognitive Pause appears. You jot a short reflection, your brain switches back on, and Mind28 restores and auto-sends the prompt for you.
KEY FEATURES
• Neural-Load Booster – keeps your pre-frontal cortex active; no silent IQ drain
• Configurable Frequency – every prompt, once per session, or once per day
• Quick vs Deep Modes – 5-second Quick Thought or 30-second Detailed Reflection
• Instant Restore & Auto-Send – zero workflow friction; Mind28 pastes your text back and clicks Send
• 100 % Local, No Data Collected – nothing leaves your browser
WHO SHOULD INSTALL
• Students & academics – learn instead of copy-pasting
• Writers & creatives – spark original ideas by priming your own brain
• Developers & analysts – craft clearer hypotheses and debug faster
• Any ChatGPT power-user who refuses to let neural activity flatline
HOW IT WORKS
Type your ChatGPT prompt.
Press Enter – Mind28 blocks submission and shows a reflection box.
Write a quick thought (10+ characters).
Click Continue – your prompt is restored and sent automatically.
Enjoy answers that match your re-engaged brainwave state.
PRIVACY
Mind28 runs entirely in your browser. We collect zero personal data and make no external network requests.
