Aristota

An accountability tool, built in public

Say it. Lock it.
Prove it.

Set a goal. Lock the deadline. When the time is up, review what actually happened. Your next goal is shaped by the result.

First signups get founder pricing, permanently.

Aristota turns a goal into a commitment you can't quietly walk back — then makes you account for whether you kept it.

Why this exists

I kept running into the same problem: setting a goal is easy. Sticking to it is harder, and most tools don't do much when you stop.

So I'm testing a simpler system. You set a goal, lock the deadline, and come back when it's over to account for what happened.

I'm building the first version myself and testing it with a small group before adding anything complicated. If the loop works, I'll keep building it. If it doesn't, I'll find out quickly.
