May be interesting to add different competition modes.

One of which could be a one time group competition.

For example, an office competition, a goal is set by the competition owner, they set the prize amount, % that goes to charity, % that goes to the winner.

They invite the participants and set the duration of the event.

Lots of companies have programs as part of their benefits to encourage exercise, etc. You could partner with benefits companies to set up the competitions for their clients.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond. I think this is a great idea. I just got feedback yesterday from a girl who said fitbit itself wasn't motivating, but the 'Workweek hustle' with her co-workers was crazy motivating. So yeah, imagine that with money on the line. Or within companies, it could be time-off or other sought-after/dreaded things.

This idea also opens up the doors to a B2B sales model which we all know is a completely different experience from B2C when bootstrapping.

Thanks again, if anything else comes to mind, I'd love to hear it
