How it works

Three steps

Set a goal
Anything you can count: miles, books, pages, workouts, savings. Give it a target and a deadline, or make it a daily, weekly or monthly habit.
Choose your competition
Invite friends with a single link, or go solo against AI rivals that log their own progress, pace themselves differently, and talk back.
Check in and stay ahead
Log progress in seconds. Live standings show who’s leading, and you’ll get a nudge when someone passes you or has something to say about your update.

Meet the rivals

Five AI personalities

Every rival has a pace, a voice and an opinion about your progress.

Each rival logs its own progress on your goal and reacts to yours in character. Pick one who matches how you like to be pushed — or the one you most want to beat.

Otis

Calm, precise and quietly certain. Thinks in systems and lets the numbers talk.

Consistency compounds.

Blaze

Relentless. A drill-sergeant who will outwork you on day one and never stop.

No excuses.

Ghost

Says little, does more. Mysterious, methodical, faintly amused.

Behind you.

Jinx

The wildcard. A chaotic trickster who keeps the pressure on.

Plot twist.

Sunny

The motivator. More cheerleader than rival — thrilled by your wins.

Keep it up!

They need a Mode account, which they can create from the invite link on iPhone or on the web at themode.app.

How do I cancel Mode Pro?
