Where the money goes if you fail
You can send your penalties to one of 3 destinations:
1. Send the money to a friend
Stake money on a goal, invite a friend, they get paid if you fail. Perfect for gym buddies, study groups, or solo habits with added accountability.
2. Earn your money back with a streak
Instead of losing money, it goes into your Vault, where you can earn it back by keeping a streak. Miss the gym one day, and you can earn your money back by sticking to your routine for the next week.
3. Or send the money to Commit
We'll take your money if you fail. You get no benefit from this, so it will really motivate you to succeed.
With money at stake, you’re 4.5x more likely to succeed
In a randomized trial, people who staked their own money on a weight-loss goal hit their 16 lb target 47.4% of the time. The group with nothing at stake hit it 10.5% of the time.
Across 35 randomized trials, commitment contracts beat every other incentive tested, even cash rewards and lotteries.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. There is a free plan and a premium plan. Free gives you two active goals, unlimited coach messages, every evidence type, App Blocking, alarms, private evidence, friends, and penalties you can route to a friend. Premium lifts the goal limit and adds the Vault and coach-scheduled reminders. Penalties are separate on either plan: that is money you choose to put on your own goals.
Up to $100 per miss, in whole dollars. You set the amount when you create the goal.
You choose: to Commit by default, to a friend, or into your Vault to earn back through streaks. Either destination costs 5% on top of the stake, and sending it to Commit has no fee.
You are never charged by surprise. Every miss gives you 4 days to appeal, or to have the coach approve it first. If a charge still looks wrong, you can escalate it. Our team reviews disputes personally, not a script.
Sending a penalty to the Vault or to a friend costs 5% on top of the stake, charged to whoever missed the goal. A $20 penalty routed to a friend charges you $21 and your friend receives the whole $20. Penalties that go to Commit, the default, have no fee.
No one at Commit ever reads your evidence or goals unless you ask them to. The AI coach grades your evidence and deletes it after 90 days, and there’s an optional privacy mode that deletes your evidence as soon as it’s graded.
