Smart device abuse inhibits productivity and, as a result, translates into significant hidden financial costs for companies.
Currently, employers can restrict access to social media and non-essential platforms on laptops and desktops, but there are few options available to companies to regulate access via smart devices, regardless of network connectivity.
Our innovation isn’t just about technology, it’s about collaboration and creating tailored solutions to real-world challenges.
At Blackout Technologies, we are on a mission to redefine how mobile technology integrates into our daily lives. With a deep cultural commitment to meaningful social impact, our patented solutions address one of the most pressing challenges of our time: the pervasive influence of mobile devices.
By focusing on smarter and more responsible mobile usage, we empower individuals, businesses, and governments to cultivate safer, healthier, and more productive environments.
We champion a balanced and responsible relationship with technology. Our solutions minimise distractions, improve mental well-being, and ensure regulatory compliance while protecting privacy and boosting productivity.
Through active collaboration with individuals, associations, businesses, and governments, we co-create strategies that address unique needs. Whether enhancing road safety, securing critical data, or fostering healthier habits in educational settings, we are committed to driving positive social change.
Our base case ROI assumption conservatively assumes employees waste an hour of their normal working day needlessly interacting with their smart devices. Although, there is a wide and increasing body of research suggesting higher levels of productivity attrition.
On a 'minimum wage' assumption of £12.21 per hour, (before employment taxes, such as National Insurance in the UK) over the course of a year each employee stands to waste £3,174 of paid time on their devices, when they should be fulfilling their employment obligations.
When considering the multiplier effect of employees across an organisation adopting similarly unproductive behaviours, the calculator below can help you estimate the savings to your organisation from using our system.
