Built, and running on a phone today

What PeakIRL does today.

Not the plan, not the pitch deck. The app that is finished and being tested right now, on a phone, with nothing on this page describing a thing it cannot do.

The card, the day,
and the long climb.

Three screens captured from the build as it stands, at phone size. The octagon is the same geometry drawn on the home page of this site, because it is the same shape the app draws.

The PeakIRL stats screen. An overall score of 50, an eight sided octagon chart with
                Movement 58, Recovery 53, Strength 20, Fuel 53, Mind 58, Work 45, Social 63 and
                Discipline 50, and a line reading Social is carrying you at 63, Strength is the
                quiet one at 20.
The octagon. Eight axes on one shape, so a strong month and a lopsided one look different before you read a number.
The PeakIRL day screen. Tasks grouped under Movement, Recovery and Strength, each
                with a tick box, each axis carrying an IRL chip that opens real places and events.
Your day. One tap per task, partial credit always. The IRL chip on an axis is the part that sends you out.
The PeakIRL trophies screen. Two counters, Unbroken at 75 days Silver and Days In at
                75 days Gold, each with a gem emblem and a six step tier ladder underneath it.
The long way. Repeat counters climbing Bronze to Legendary. Nothing here is ever taken back.

Captured from the running build with the developer test controls hidden, because those are switched off in any real copy of the app. Nothing else in these frames has been changed.

One thing to call out, because you can see it in the tab bar: there is a Crew tab. It is built and it is being tested, and it is the one thing in these frames with nobody real in it yet, because there is no account system for anybody to be real in. Crews, and what they will and will not do

Your whole life. Not just your steps.

Most trackers measure the two things a wrist can see. PeakIRL measures eight, because a great month in the gym does not fix a month with nobody in it.

Discipline is the only one you cannot enter. It is calculated from the other seven, and it carries the most weight, because showing up across the board is the actual skill. Move the octagon yourself on the home page

Seven states, and the lowest one is a beginning.

Your card retints as your form moves, so a strong month looks materially different from a quiet one before you have read a single number.

  1. Getting Going0
  2. Building25
  3. Steady40
  4. Strong55
  5. Sharp70
  6. Elite82
  7. Peak92

There is no band below Getting Going, and no band named after failing. Starting is a state, not a verdict.

The only tracker built to
get you off it.

Here is the move that makes this PeakIRL and not another dashboard. Tick a real world task and the app does not congratulate you and go quiet. It shows you where to go do it.

Social

"Go to a networking event"

Opens what is actually on near you this week, through Meetup and Eventbrite.

Movement

"Get outside"

Trails and parks within range, through AllTrails and Maps. Not a step goal on a screen.

Strength

"Train"

Gyms, classes and clubs nearby, and the route to one of them.

PeakIRL hosts no listings and brokers no meetings. It knows what you are trying to do and it points at the door. Everything past that door belongs to platforms that already do it well. Discovery is 18 and over.

Four things PeakIRL
will never do.

  1. 01

    No leaderboards.

    You are measured against your own last 30 days and nobody else's. The evidence on gamified health apps points one way: feedback about your own progress helps, and ranking people against each other does not. So it is not in here, and it is not coming.

  2. 02

    No shame.

    There is no alarm red in the palette. A quiet day makes a quieter card, never a failure state, never a broken streak shouting at you. The app is built to reward showing up more than it rewards performing well.

  3. 03

    Nothing leaves your phone.

    No account. No cloud. No sync. No analytics, no tracker, no ad network. Your day is written to your device and it stays there. That is not a privacy policy, it is the architecture.

  4. 04

    No points for opening the app.

    Tapping around in here earns you nothing. Every point comes from the day you actually lived. An app you open ten times a day is a product that is winning while you are not.

These four are the first four lines of the Code, and three of them are held in place by tests rather than by good intentions.

Two years of ladder, on purpose.

Something new lands every few days at the start and every few months later on, so the ranks do not run out while the number is still going up. These are set from measured time to reach, not round numbers.

  1. Rookielevel 1
  2. Startedday 4
  3. Building2 weeks
  4. Consistent1 month
  5. Committed2.3 months
  6. Forged5.3 months
  7. Tempered10 months
  8. Relentless17 months
  9. Ascendant2.5 years
  10. Enduring4 years
Bronze Silver Gold Platinum Diamond Legendary

The top rank is Enduring, not Unbroken. A rank that means "never missed" quietly turns every gap in your life into a failure, and that is the one thing this app refuses to do.

What it looks like
when it lands.

These are the app's real takeover screens. They are deliberately nothing alike. A level is gold, radial and over in under two seconds, because it happens often. A rank promotion is cold, rising and slow, because the thing it marks took months. A different temperature reads as a different kind of event before you have processed a word.

They play in sequence, never instead of each other. Here is the level, and here is what the level made you.

LEVEL UP 60

Banked permanently. This number never goes back down.

The level. Gold, radial, fast. A column of light, ground rings in perspective, rising motes, and the number overshooting in before it settles. You see it often, so it is built to be short.
RANK PROMOTION COMMITTED

Level 60. You have not been this before.

YOUR CARD, FROM NOW ON
Consistent Level 59 Committed Level 60
The promotion. Cold, rising, slow. Everything travels upward and settles, which reads as ascension rather than celebration. And it shows your card being edited: the old title struck through, the new one taking its place.

And the emblem earns its own shape.

Each of the nine repeat counters climbs this ladder, and every tier escalates on four things at once. The gem gains a cut. Rays appear at gold. Wings at platinum. Legendary gets a crown no other tier shows. Sparkles start at gold on purpose: if everything sparkled, hitting gold would look like day one.

Bronzewhere every ladder starts
Silver5 facets
Gold6 facets, 6 rays
Platinum7 facets, 8 rays, wings
Diamond8 facets, 10 rays, wings
Legendaryabout two years in

Drawn from scratch in vector, not licensed art. Roughly two years of showing up carries one counter from Bronze to Legendary.

That is the whole app as it stands. What is being built around it, and what is still only a direction, is on its own page and labelled there. See what's next

Be there on day one.

PeakIRL is in build for iOS right now. Leave an address and you will hear from us once, when you can actually download it.

We store your email address and nothing else. No tracking on this page, no third party scripts, no list sold to anybody. How that works.
