Loading Duel…
A binding commitment app
A binding 14-, 30- or 90-day contract with your own stake in escrow. Hit your standard, keep every dollar. Slide, and you pay — to a rival who will actually remember. No streaks. No gold stars. Just the money.
Try it now
A working preview of the real wizard. Nothing you enter is saved — when you’re ready, the “Make it real” button hands your choices to the full flow.
How much does a miss cost? Real money — held in Stripe escrow.
Pick one to three standards you will hold yourself to. Sleep. Steps. Alcohol. Gym. No more, usually less.
Prepay into escrow. Choose 14, 30, or 90 days. The amount has to hurt if you lose it, or this does not work.
Every passed day returns a slice of your stake. Every missed day forfeits one. Your ledger updates live.
Three shapes a 30-day duel can take — composite scenarios, not real users.
We won’t fabricate testimonials. These are illustrative walkthroughs built from the kinds of outcomes the contract engine actually produces.

Clean run until day 11, then a client dinner took out the no-takeaway pillar.
OutcomeKept $465 · forfeited $35 to their chosen beneficiary.
Head-to-head across the Tasman. Priya missed three sleep days; Dan had a perfect run.
OutcomePriya → $2,410 back. Dan → $2,500 back plus Priya's forfeit share.
Real user data will replace these once we have consenting duellists with 30 days behind them. Until then, we prefer transparency to borrowed credibility.
A quiet track record — the shape of what happens when drift gets priced in.
Numbers refresh monthly. Every contract is escrow-backed, itemised to the cent, and stored on a single immutable ledger.
A commitment infrastructure, not a habit tracker.
Your stake is held by a regulated third-party the instant you sign. Missed days move real dollars the same day — no in-app token economy.
Invite an opponent and both of you sign identical terms. When you miss a day, your money goes to them. Makes every 6am alarm feel different.
Pull sleep and step totals from Apple Health, Oura, Fitbit, Garmin, or Health Connect. One daily number — raw biometrics never leave the source.
Every contract is rendered as a proper PDF with both signatures, timestamps, and clause-level terms. Emailed to you the moment it activates.
If a day scores wrong, file a dispute with a photo. Funds are held until review — no quiet forfeits, no black-box rulings.
See exactly where your money stands against your opponent in real time. Every point, every cent, every transfer, on one screen.
You already know what you should be doing.
You already know how to do it.
What you lack is consequence.
Duel exists for the moment before drift becomes identity. It lets you commit now, while you still mean it, and makes that commitment stick when your compromised future self shows up tired, busy, or bargaining.
Forfeit is you versus yourself.
Duel is you versus someone who will actually remember.
Duel takes a share of forfeited money. Never of your kept stake.
When you miss a day, half of that day’s stake goes to your opponent (or your chosen beneficiary) and half covers platform + escrow. When you hit your standard, you owe us nothing. The app is free to use while we’re in early access — Pro is how power users will unlock more stakes at once.
Everything you need to sign your first contract.
For people who stack multiple stakes — and multiple rivals.
A 30-day reset. $1,000 on the line. Sleep, steps, alcohol-free check-in. Do the work. Keep your money.
