Acta
1
Gather your squad
A private, invite-only group of close friends, your partner, or family. Invites wait until the other person accepts.
Private accountability for real life
Action, not words.
Keep a habit private, or put it in front of the people who know you best. Form an invite-only squad, set a friendly stake, post proof, and let your squad verify it.
Free to start. Stakes are friendly pledges - no money ever changes hands.
- Invite-only squads
- No money, no gambling
- No marketing notifications
- Delete your data anytime
How it works
Four steps from intention to proof.
Squads turn a promise into something the people you trust can actually see.
2
Choose a track
Five research-informed templates, from starting laughably small to making chores bearable.
3
Set the stakes
Agree on what you forfeit if you miss - buy the group a meal, fund a coffee run, take on a chore. Friendly and textual, never money.
4
Post proof, your squad votes
Upload a note, link, or photo. Your squad confirms or disputes it, and a simple majority decides.
Solo commitments
Not every habit needs an audience.
Create a private commitment just for you. A hard day becomes a redesign, not a failure.
- Attach a cue"After my morning coffee" - anchor it to something you already do.
- Redesign, don't quitNot going well? Reshape the commitment instead of abandoning it.
- Honest check-insDone, Partially, Minimum version, or Not today.
- Truly privatePrivate commitments are never shown to your squads.
Designed for real life
Keep the promise small enough to keep.
Give every commitment a fallback and a plan for the day you miss, so one bad day never ends the habit.
- Minimum versionA fallback for hard days, so a miss isn't a failure.
- If I miss a day...Decide in advance how you get back on track.
- Record it your wayA simple check, a note, a photo, or a quantity.
- Reminders on your deviceAt the time you choose. Pick exact days with Premium.
Insights
See the streak you are building.
Your best streak, total days completed, and an activity chart across every stake and commitment, plus the identity claims behind them.
- Everything in one viewStakes and private commitments together.
- 7 days free, 30 with PremiumPremium adds a breakdown by habit type.
Five tracks
Built on how habits actually form.
Every stake starts from a proven behavioral principle, not a generic checklist.
Micro
Break friction by starting laughably small, like ten minutes of study a day.
Identity
Lean into who you want to become with focus sessions, reading, and creative logging.
Progress
Compound consistency on goals you measure over time, like saving or budgeting.
Habit stack
Attach small wins like hydration or stretching to habits you already have.
Chore
Make the tedious upkeep bearable by pairing it with a reward you actually want.
The verification engine
Your squad is the jury.
No bots, no algorithms. The people who know you best confirm or dispute every proof.
1
Post proof
A note, a link, or a photo.
2
Squad votes
A simple majority decides.
3
Fair by default
Nobody voted it down by the deadline? It counts.
Invite a friend
Bring a friend. You both get Premium.
Share your referral link or code. When your friend signs up and posts their first proof in a squad, they get 7 days of free Premium and you get 14. No purchase required, for up to 3 friends a month.
Privacy and safety
Private by design.
No strangers, no public vanity metrics - just the circles you trust.
Invite-only squads
Nobody can add you to a squad without your consent. Invites wait for you to accept or decline.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is Acta free?
Yes. The free plan covers one squad you own, one squad you join, one active stake, one active private commitment, squads of up to 5 members, 5 reflections per commitment, daily reminders, and 7 days of Insights history. Acta Premium is an optional monthly subscription that removes those limits.
Does Acta handle money or bets?
No. Stakes are friendly, textual pledges your squad agrees on, like "loser buys coffee". Acta never processes, holds, or transfers money, and it is not a gambling app.
Who can see my habits?
Private commitments are only ever visible to you. Stakes are visible to the members of that squad, and squads are invite-only: nobody can add you without your consent.
How does verification work?
When you post proof, your squad members confirm or dispute it and a simple majority decides. If nobody votes your proof down by the stake's deadline, it counts, so a quiet squad can never cost you a stake.
Can I delete my account?
Yes. You can delete your account and all of its data from inside the app at any time, or follow the steps on our Delete My Account page.
Who is Acta for?
Anyone 13 or older who wants to build habits with people they trust. Sign-up asks for a date of birth, and for anyone under 18 the device advertising identifier is never collected or shared. See the Privacy Policy.
