stickK was founded by three Yale University economists with the mission to help individuals achieve their personal goals through commitment contracts. The platform allows users to create contracts for common resolutions such as weight loss, quitting smoking, and exercising, or to design custom contracts tailored to their unique objectives. stickK leverages behavioral economics principles to provide an incentive and accountability tool, fostering a community where like-minded goal setters can interact, support each other, and share best practices.
