The Problem

Knowledge work is making people sick

68% of workers feel overwhelmed by work volume. Managers have no data on cognitive overload until it's too late.

Invisible Overload

Cognitive load is the #1 predictor of errors and burnout, yet no tool measures it. Managers rely on gut feeling to distribute work.

$322B Lost Annually

Workplace burnout costs the global economy $322 billion per year in turnover, absenteeism, and reduced productivity (WHO/Gallup, 2022).

One-Size-Fits-All

Neurodivergent workers (15-20% of workforce) face different cognitive challenges. Current tools ignore individual differences entirely.

For You

Take control of your cognitive load

You know that feeling — too many tasks, brain fog, constant context switching. Clarinet gives you the data to protect yourself before burnout hits.

1

Load your tasks

Enter what's on your plate today — titles, descriptions, deadlines. Set your current fatigue level and cognitive profile (ADHD, ASD, dyslexia, or neurotypical).

2

See the invisible

Clarinet scores each task's cognitive load: intrinsic complexity, extraneous friction, and context-switch cost. You finally see what your brain is dealing with.

3

Work smarter, not harder

Get an optimized task sequence, break reminders, and science-backed advice. Heavy task first? Actually no — the data says otherwise.

Your cognitive profile

Neurodivergent? Clarinet adapts to you. ADHD, ASD, AuDHD, Dyslexia — adjusted thresholds and strategies designed for how your brain actually works.

Burnout early warning

A personal burnout risk score based on your load patterns, fatigue trend, and cognitive wear. You'll know you're heading toward a wall — days before you hit it.

Smart task sequencing

Clarinet reorders your day based on cognitive science — not just priority. Heavy tasks when you're sharp, lighter ones when you're fading.

Evidence you can share

When your plate is too full, show the data. Clarinet gives you objective evidence to push back on unrealistic workloads — with science behind it.

For Teams & Companies

See what's invisible. Fix it before it breaks.

Burnout doesn't send a calendar invite. Clarinet gives managers real-time visibility into team cognitive health — so you can act before losing people.

Team Dashboard

See every team member's cognitive load, burnout risk, and wear trend in one view. Spot the person heading toward a wall — even if they won't tell you.

Workload distribution

Stop guessing who has capacity. Clarinet shows cognitive load distribution across the team, so you can rebalance before assigning yet another task to the same person.

Burnout risk alerts

4-factor burnout model per employee: wear trend, sustained load, fatigue pattern, and state signals. Get alerted at "moderate" — not after the sick leave email.

Cognitive Load API

Integrate into Jira, Asana, Slack, or your own tools. Score any task's cognitive load in <50ms. Build cognitive-aware workflows at scale.

Dual evaluation engine

Instant heuristic engine (r=0.81) for day-to-day use. Optional LLM engine for deep semantic analysis. Smart routing optimizes cost vs accuracy automatically.

Neurodivergence-inclusive

15-20% of your workforce is neurodivergent. Clarinet adapts thresholds and recommendations per profile — ADHD, ASD, Dyslexia, and more.

Science & Mission

Built on cognitive science, driven by a mission

Clarinet is grounded in Cognitive Load Theory — 30+ years of peer-reviewed research in educational and occupational psychology. We don't guess; we measure.

Scientific Foundation

  • Based on Cognitive Load Theory (Sweller, Ayres & Kalyuga, 2011)
  • Validated against 213 expert-evaluated tasks across 49 types
  • Neurodivergence research: Barkley (2015), Young et al. (2014)
  • Task taxonomy: O*NET, ISCO-08, Eurofound (2022)
  • Every recommendation backed by peer-reviewed evidence

Our Mission

  • Cognitive overload is invisible, unmeasured, and costs $322B/year.
  • We're building the measurement layer that workplaces are missing.
  • A multidisciplinary team of engineers and cognitive psychologists, based in Berlin, Germany.
  • Inclusive by design: 15-20% of workers are neurodivergent — our platform adapts to them, not the other way around.

Unit economics: why this model works

Our heuristic engine runs at near-zero marginal cost. LLM evaluations use smart model routing (85% lightweight models, 15% flagship for complex tasks) with prompt caching, keeping COGS at ~€0.005/eval. At €0.05/eval retail, gross margin on LLM usage exceeds 90%. The auto-tuned engine (roadmap) replaces 90% of LLM calls with local inference at €0.001/eval, expanding margins to 97%+.
