Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Challenge formats include a leaderboard, a target goal for each participant, virtual races along selectable virtual routes with real-time progress tracking, daily streaks, team leaderboards, team virtual races, group targets that pool collective activity toward a single figure such as 100 million steps, a "Stick to It" format requiring a daily goal be met a set number of times, group virtual races based on pooled distance, and a group fundraiser format in which the group donates to a chosen charity if a collective goal is reached. A custom activity option allows challenges built around activities other than steps, such as meditation, sleep or nutrition.
