New mobile platform transforms how users develop active listening, focus, and memory retention skills in an increasingly distracted world
ROCKLAND COUNTY, N.Y. - Washingtoner -- Glisn is an innovative cognitive training application designed to enhance active listening, focus, and memory retention for professionals, students, and lifelong learners. In an era where digital distractions have dramatically reduced attention spans, Glisn offers a structured, science-backed approach to strengthening cognitive abilities essential for success in both professional and personal contexts.
Glisn distinguishes itself from conventional brain training apps by focusing specifically on auditory processing and active listening skills through real-world scenarios, interactive challenges, and AI-backed exercises. The app transforms passive content consumption into active engagement, helping users develop the increasingly rare ability to focus deeply and retain information effectively.
"We created Glisn to address a growing crisis in how we process information," said Sarila Awotwi, co-founder and CMO of Glisn. "Our research showed that people are consuming more content than ever but retaining less. Glisn transforms this dynamic by making listening an active, measurable skill that improves with consistent practice—essentially creating a gym for your listening and focus abilities."

Glisn arrives at a critical moment, as research continues to highlight concerning trends in attention spans. A recent study found that the average person now checks their phone over 150 times daily, with attention spans decreasing by nearly 25% over the past decade. Glisn's structured approach directly counteracts these trends by creating deliberate practice opportunities for sustained focus.
