What your friend sees when they tap the link.
The pool so far, what everyone is pledging, the rules, the start date. One button to pledge, one to invite. Two people and the sprint is on.
Group chats
with money on it.
Quitters pay the finishers.
Start a Clique with your friends. Everyone pledges the same amount into a pool and agrees the rules. For the length of the sprint you prove every rule, every day, on camera, in the chat. Finish and your pledge comes back with a share of what the quitters left behind.

01 How a Clique works
One link. Same pledge. Same rules. Same deadline.
A Clique is a group chat with a pool. The person who starts it sets the rules, the pledge and how long the sprint runs. Everyone who joins puts the same money in. Two mates at $5 or a thousand strangers at $50. Then the camera and the clock take over.
1
Create
Name it. Pick rules from the list or write your own. Set the pledge, anything from $1 with no ceiling, and the length, from a weekend to a year.
2
Invite
Share one link or a six letter code. Friends tap it, see the rules and the pool, and pledge. Two people and it is on.
3
Pledge
Everyone pays the same into the pool. It is locked until the last day. Nobody can leave with it once the sprint starts.
4
Prove
Every rule, every day, straight from the camera into the chat. Steps and sleep come from Apple Health on their own.
5
Settle
At the end, every finisher gets their pledge back plus an even cut of what the kicked members left. Paid to the wallet at 8am.
02 The money
Six friends, $50 each. Two quit. Here is the maths.
The pool is only ever your Clique's money. Miss two days in a row and you are kicked; your $50 stays on the table. When the sprint ends the people who finished split everything the quitters left. FitClique charges a small fee at the door and never takes a cent from the pool.
30 day sprint, 6 members, $50 pledge
Pool at the start 6 × $50$300
Jake kicked, day 9 two misses in a row$50 stays in
Dan kicked, day 17$50 stays in
Forfeits split four ways$100
Each finisher gets back$50 pledge
Plus their share+ $25
FitClique's cut of this pool: $0. The service fee at join was $2.50 each, charged once, refunded if the sprint never starts.
03 The chat
Every proof lands in the group chat. Clique accountability.
There is no upload button. Plates, lifts, weigh-ins, body photos: the app opens the camera, stamps the shot and drops it in the thread before you have put the fork down. Your friends see all of it. A photo of a screen gets caught by the depth sensor. An old photo gets caught by the clock. A kick lands in the chat with your name on it.
- No camera roll. No filters. No excuses.
- Three flags from the group and the proof is void
- Tapbacks, replies and a kick clock, in the chat you already live in
04 The plate
The meal you post anyway comes back with the calories on it.
No calorie app. No typing. The photo is the proof and the proof is the food log. Fifteen seconds later the number sits on the bubble where the whole group can see the croissant. Set a daily cap and the Clique has to stay under it.
- Calories, protein, carbs, fat on every plate
- A daily cap the Clique has to stay under
- Day and week totals for every member
05 Sleep leagues
Sleep is a sport now. The chart drops every night.
Watch, Oura or Whoop feed the score. Every night a chart lands in the chat: who climbed, who slipped, who has the crown. At the end of the sprint the best sleeper takes the bounty. Nobody else has made sleep a league table between friends.
- Ranked on the last seven nights, so one bad night does not bury you
- Movement arrows, like a music chart
- Bounty to the winner at settlement
06 The judge
Midnight is the judge. It does not read your DMs.
Every rule is checked by the server at midnight in the Clique's time zone. Moving your clock does nothing. Manual entries in Apple Health do not count. Two misses in a row and you are kicked, in front of everyone, and the kick is final.
