Motivate Mate
Leverage an AI-powered coach to realize your dreams and achieve remarkable things
Origin Story (Why I'm Building It)*
*As of January 2, 2024 I'm still building it
With two kids, a job and entrepreneurial aspirations, I’ve been focused on productivity lately and I thought through the times where I’ve succeeded in achieving goals I’ve set, and times where I didn’t and there was a stark contrast between the two.
-
Succeeded - set the long-term goal in mind, focused on incremental milestones and focused on small, daily, incremental tasks that I could do to move towards that milestone
-
Failed - set the long-term goal and just threw myself at it without proper planning and without focus on the short-term
This aligned with much of what I was reading - in order to achieve long-term goals, you have to focus on the short-term and make small, incremental steps towards it.
I did some research into habit apps and found most of them were focused on tracking habits, but I couldn’t find any that helped you design a specific habit plan - you were always required to tell it what habits you wanted or pick from a list. So there wasn’t any personalization.
Personalization is something that typically occurs with a coach that costs thousands of dollars.
Enter ChatGPT and LLMs. Now you can have a personalized coach for cheap!
So I set out to build it - as of right now I’m still building it.
I’m using Bubble.io again but looking at exploring some other tools like Flutter Flow or potentially Zoho Creator.
My Role
Founder, designer, developer, marketer.
I designed the UI in Figma, attempting to keep it as simple as possible. I also designed the technical implementation using Whimsical to show the flow that users would go through and each tech module along the way.
Product Vision & Strategy
For people that want to achieve a goal and build sustainable, positive habits, Motivate Mate is an AI-powered coach that works with them to design a specific goal, create a habit plan, help them track their progress and sends them motivational messages to stay on track.
