About

Beeminder is a commitment device: you set a goal with a measurable target, and you pay real money if you go off track. Its API lets you create goals, log datapoints, and read your progress, with both a personal auth token and full OAuth2 for apps. The API is free to use with any free Beeminder account, and the docs even cover automation-friendly tricks like the updated_at field to avoid wasted calls.
