How does Brink decide something is off-topic?

Brink weighs your browser activity, the app in the foreground, window titles, web addresses, and open-document text against the focus contract you set — with AI adjudication making the final call. Off-topic PDFs, documents, and e-books can be treated the same as off-topic websites when their metadata or extracted text is clear enough.

What happens when Brink blocks something?

A confident off-topic block counts as a warning. The fourth warning ends the session and resets your next session fee to 20 credits. When Brink is not sure, it lets the surface through instead of guessing.

How do credits and session fees work?

Your first session is free. After that, each one-day session deducts its credit fee when it starts. Credits are available in packs of 100, 250, or 625, and every credit movement appears in your ledger. See the pricing page for the full model.

Is my activity data private?

Page and document text are checked in the moment, sensitive material is minimized, and everything kept is encrypted. Current metadata mode does not take or upload screenshots. Brink never sells your data or trains unrelated models on it. Full detail on the privacy page.

How does the fee discount work?

Each qualifying completion reduces your next session fee. There is no time decay between sessions. Four warnings, confirmed tampering, or ending early resets the next fee to 20 credits; ambiguous startup or connectivity gaps stay neutral while they are reviewed.

What do I need to run a session?

The desktop client on Windows, the Chrome extension, and the web dashboard — all three keep in sync for the duration of a session.

What happens when a session ends?

A verified completion advances your fee discount. Four content warnings, confirmed tampering, or ending early resets the next fee to 20 credits. Ambiguous monitoring gaps do not change your progression until review resolves them.

Which platforms are supported?

During the closed beta, Brink runs on Windows (desktop client) with the Chrome browser extension and the web dashboard. More platforms are planned.
