How it works
Set a goal + deadline
“Finish the deck by Friday 5pm.” You decide what counts.
Stake real money
Enough that skipping it would actually sting.
Do it — or pay
Hit “Did it!” before time runs out and nothing happens. Miss it, your card gets charged.
Why it works
You won't get off the couch for a reward. You'll get off the couch to not lose $50. MotoDojo turns “I should” into “I have to” using the most reliable motivator there is: loss aversion.
Recurring goals for the habits you do every day. Reminders before every deadline. A calendar of every win and every miss.
The trust part
When exactly am I charged?
Only if you miss a deadline you set. Hit your goal and nothing is ever charged.
Can I lose money I don't owe?
No. You can only ever forfeit a stake you chose. There's nothing to “win” and no way to lose more than you put up.
Changed my mind?
Back out before the deadline.
Is my card safe?
Yes — payments run through Stripe and we never see or store your card number.
Is this gambling?
No. You're staking your own money on your own goals. You can't win anything — only avoid losing what you put up.
Stop negotiating with yourself.
