So am I right in thinking this is like Wakie but rather than being peer-to-peer it's more like a PA waking you up ?

@imranghory Similar concept. Instead of being a "wake up call", I view it more as a productivity tool. It's someone to hold you accountable for your to-do list. Most of my friends using it right now don't even have their Morning Person wake them up. I use it as a way to visualize my day and verbalize my goals.

@davfry @imranghory It seems like a personal daily morning stand up!

As someone who worked on a similar service called DitchThePillow back in university (unsuccessfully, unfortunately), I am glad to see you are solving this problem and doing it in a very fun way. How are you keeping your Morning People accountable to make wake up calls on time? What is your incentive system?

@darynakulya The Morning People are hired to make the calls. The user management system that reminds them of their calls and displays the user's to-dos and calendar is currently in development.

@samuelbeek it actually is the same person that calls you every day. That way you can create a personal relationship with them---they know how you handle your schedule and what other information you like to hear (weather, news, etc.)

@davfry @samuelbeek That's great! How nice :) You should make it more clear tough.

For all of us that struggle getting out of bed sometimes... Why not have a person calling you every morning, reminding you of everything you need to do (calendar & tasks) and holding you accountable? I think @DAVFRY is one of the founders, maybe he could answer some questions?

I don't like it that the person that wakes me is a different one each day. It doesn't seem very personal. I'd say that's no different from things like IFTTT (this recipe f.e; https://ifttt.com/recipes/3788-a...). Why is your service better? I think you should ad a (paid) option to have the same person call you (or one of two) every day.

Here's what I've wanted to do: AlarmRabbit. If you don't prove that you're out of bed and awake, a TaskRabbit is dispatched to your house to ring your doorbell and yell at you through your windows with a bullhorn. I think this would work.

I gotta say, I'm a fan of Wakie and the main reason is the randomness of it. Most people are very friendly, I usually sing a song. Terribly. In fact they hang up instantly. It's just a fun way to wake up!
