Stakely

👋 Hey everyone, I’m Raph, the maker of Stakely. I built Stakely because I realized I’m far more motivated when there’s something at risk. For years I tried alarms, reminders, and motivation hacks, but nothing worked consistently. Then I noticed something simple: when there are stakes on the line, I actually follow through. This idea comes from behavioral psychology and the principle of loss aversion: the pain of losing $100 is stronger than the joy of gaining $100. In other words, loss is the most powerful motivator. That’s what Stakely is built around. You set a goal, a deadline, and stake coins on the line. If you succeed, you keep them and level up. If you don’t, you lose what you staked. It turns your goal into something you simply can’t afford to ignore. I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and ideas for how we can make accountability even more effective 🙏
