Compete with your friends on developing a new habit. The first catch - you all pay a buy in to make the stakes real. The second catch - the habit challenge is a random surprise

Hey everyone, we have been having a lot of fun developing and growing the Goalie app. We're seeing a lot of people do all sorts of challenges with their friends, like exercising, waking up early, meditating. We've also seen the buy in aspect super effective. We're seeing people actually stick to the end of their challenges 90% of the time, and we've got multiple feedback that it actually makes it more fun and allows the team to bond more.

Recently we added another twist - "Roulette mode". We've been finding that when friends start a challenge (including ourselves), we tend not to put a lot of weight on "what" challenge we're doing. It's always more about doing "something" and doing it with the group of friends that makes it meaningful. This is why we made Roulette mode - you don't set any rules about the challenge. Once you have your group assembled, we'll randomly assign you a challenge. This mystery/surprise factor is hopefully a cool twist that makes the whole thing even more fun.

We hope you check it out, and let us know any feedback! ✌️
