> (Beeminder is primarily based on API integrations)

This strikes me as a significant mischaracterization of Beeminder. I've used Beeminder for 5+ years[0] and I've never used an API integration — Beeminder supports manually entering data for any goal. (And basically none of my goals have been digital; I'm not sure where you got the impression that Beeminder exclusively targets digital goals).

My bad, I thought the primary selling point was that it would would hook into the services you already use for tracking your commitment (Strava, GitHub, etc.). I am aware that you can manually enter some data but I didn't think there was any way to validate the data that you enter and I didn't think it was their focus.

Anyway, sorry for the misrepresentation. I will update my comment above to be more accurate.

Thanks for the update, and you're absolutely right that Beeminder doesn't offer any way to validate the data you enter. They discuss why (in their view, of course) trusting user-entered data works in this blog post: https://blog.beeminder.com/cheating/
