You get up in the morning and the first thing you do is to check your phone, thereafter eating sugary food and already feeling lazy for the rest of the day.
Does this sound familiar?
The culprit here isDopamine , a molecule that controls our feelings of reward, motivation, and pleasure, and thereby also our habits and routines. Our modern world with its easily available short-term pleasures like social media reels, high-sugar food, and entertainment opportunities has broken our reward systems. That’s why we designed our app to systematically help you make your dopamine systems healthy again by making your brain fall in love with effort-based instead of short-term dopamine.
Our app offers two play modes, both of which involve a gamified staking of monetary rewards against a completion target to hold yourself and your friends accountable.
In Solo Player mode, you compete against yourself and keep your money if you succeed, but donate it to charity if you fail to hold yourself accountable. Our Multiplayer mode allows you to compete against friends, with everyone staking money on a routine, and the winner(s) receiving the money of those who failed the challenge
Our AI technology accurately verifies sport workouts like push-ups, squats, or planks to keep you accountable to your routine goals. Traditional apps rely on self-report questionnaires to track user progress, but our recognition AI will motivate you 11.4x more than that thanks to neuroscientific motivation boosters like competition, gamification, and having skin in the game.
We provide a fully transparent donation history where you can not only see where your money went, but also how much impact it had, for example with metrics such as numbers of planted trees, saved children lives, or saved animal lives.
Our AI system only recognizes whether you have completed a workout or not, we do not save, store or even process any of your video data, but only note a simple proof-of-work, nothing else is stored in our system.
Effective altruism is a social movement that seeks to use logical evidence to maximize the impact of charitable efforts by prioritizing the most effective ways to do good based on evidence and data, rather than emotion or tradition.
At Dopamining, we strive to make the world a better place while simultaneously helping you establish a healthy routine in your life, and we thus set up our platform in a way that there are only two outcomes for users: either you achieve your healthy routine as planned, or you donate money to a highly effective social cause. In either way, it’s a win-win.
