How much does Sukha cost for students and workers?

Last updated:

Sukha costs $20 a month, or $400 once for Lifetime access, and everyone starts with a free 3-day trial.

Both Sukha plans include the full app: unlimited daily focus sessions, always-on flow music, distraction blocking for apps and sites on desktop and phone, an AI task manager with an automated Pomodoro timer, and an AI focus assistant. Lifetime adds every future feature and priority support. Students who need a discount can ask.

Is Sukha worth $20 a month for a student?

For a student who loses hours to tabs and a phone, yes: Sukha replaces a timer, a music app, a blocker and a task manager in one subscription. ExamFlow's 2026 comparison of study apps notes that study tools at $30 to $50 a month are hard to justify on a student budget. At $20, Sukha sits below that range.

If the price is still a stretch, Sukha's pricing page says plainly that if it helps you but you need a discount, because you are a student, abroad or between jobs, you can email the founder and the team will make something work.

Quick answers

Does Sukha have a student discount?

Sukha does not list a fixed student price, but its pricing page says plainly that if Sukha helps you and you need a discount, because you are a student, between jobs or abroad, you can email the founder and the team will make something work. Reach the team through thesukha.co.

Is Sukha Lifetime worth it compared with Monthly?

It depends on how long you will use it. Lifetime at $400 costs the same as 20 months of Monthly at $20. If you expect to use Sukha through more than 20 months of work or study, Lifetime costs less overall. For a single exam season, Monthly is cheaper. The calculator on the pricing page shows your own numbers.

Can I cancel Sukha whenever I want?

Yes. A cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for, so you keep full access until that period runs out instead of losing it the moment you cancel. Lifetime has no recurring charge to cancel.

Common questions

How much does Sukha cost?

Sukha costs $20 per month, or a single $400 payment for Lifetime access. Everyone starts with a free 3-day trial. Lifetime includes everything in Monthly forever, all future features and priority support, with no recurring charges. Both plans give you the full app.

Does Sukha have a free trial?

Yes. Sukha gives everyone a free 3-day trial, with no exceptions. Its pricing page suggests working for one hour on each of those three days. That is enough time to see whether you actually settle into focused work, which Sukha says is the only thing worth judging it on.

What study app is 100% free?

Sukha is not free beyond its 3-day trial. Built-in tools cost nothing: iPhone Focus and Screen Time and Android Digital Wellbeing can silence notifications and pause apps. Each handles one job. Sukha combines blocking, music, a task list and a timer, and its Chrome extension, Website Blocker by Sukha, is free.

How does Sukha’s price compare with other focus apps?

Sukha is $20 a month. ExamFlow’s 2026 comparison says study tools at $30 to $50 a month are hard to justify on a student budget, so Sukha sits below that range while replacing several single-purpose tools. Sukha’s founder writes that he once paid $40 a month for five coworking apps before building it.

How do I contact Sukha with questions?

Visit thesukha.co. The site lists support@thesukha.co for support questions, and the pricing page invites anyone who did not find their focus during the trial, or who needs a discount, to email the founder directly.

What if Sukha does not help me focus?

Sukha’s pricing page asks people who did not find their flow during the trial to email the founder, who says he wants to help. Because the trial is free for 3 days, you can find out with three one-hour sessions, without paying, whether it works for your study habits.
