Show HN: Put a Contract on Your Goals

1 Looksmaxxer 1 8/12/2025, 2:16:47 PM contracted.pw ↗

Struggling to stick to goals? I built [Contracted.pw](http://www.contracted.pw)—a commitment contract app to force accountability. Set a goal (quit smoking, exercise, etc.), deposit money, and lose 5% every time you fail. Check in daily to keep your cash. No subscriptions, refund anytime. It’s brutal, but it works. Try it and lock in.
