About Pivot

About Pivot and its creator

Pivot is an independent, local-first project designed to create a thoughtful pause before an unwanted browsing choice.

Why Pivot exists

Pivot offers a brief interruption and a chance to choose what happens next. Its core protections work locally, without requiring an account, advertising profile, or paid plan.

Using Pivot does not require a purchase, subscription, donation, or Patreon membership.

About the creator

Pivot was created by Brandon Trippe, a software engineer who builds independent software and creative projects under the name Rubber Duck Development.

You can learn more about Brandon's work throughout this portfolio or review Pivot's public privacy and support documentation.

Elsewhere

Rubber Duck Development also has a presence on Patreon for Brandon's broader independent work.

Patreon is separate from Pivot. Following or supporting Brandon there is entirely optional and does not unlock Pivot features, content, access, or services. Pivot works the same either way.
