Summit: Social Productivity App

Project Description:

Summit encourages continuous productive behavior through accountability buddies. Many people struggle with having time-sensitive tasks that they must complete, but lack the motivation to get started on them, resulting in procrastination and self-hate for not keeping themselves accountable. The Summit app allows users to pair up with a friend, where each user sets a personal climb goal (value of tasks that must be completed), and if both manage to meet their goal by the deadline, both are rewarded. Else, if one of the partners falls behind, it will be up to the other partner to be extra productive or persistently nudging, or neither will be rewarded. The risk of negatively affecting someone else will be one of the key motivators for a person choosing to use this app to keep themselves on task.
