What can I beemind with Maayot?

Lessons completed! Each lesson completed is a +1 on Beeminder.

Maayot sample goal setup

  1. Head to create a new goal (also accessible through the New Goal link in the top menu).
  2. Click the Maayot icon to start a new goal using data from Maayot.

  3. First, you need to get the integration URL from your Maayot account. Copy that and paste it into the box, and then hit "check URL" to continue.

    Beeminder + Maayot: "My Maayot integration URL is..." with a box to enter the URL. Below the box it says, "Copy the magic URL from your Maayot account", with a link on the words "Maayot account". Below there's a button saying "Check URL"
  4. The goal creation wizard will now load how many lessons you've done, and let you choose your rate. I've chosen to do 1 lesson per day, and start with four days of leeway. Once you've entered that, hit "Next" to continue to the next step.

    Screenshot shows the setup process, with "Found 2 completed lessons", followed by the text "I pledge to average" and some stepper buttons to choose a rate (or a box you can write a number in) per day. Below that, the box saying "Start with extra leeway" is selected, and a numbered entered into the box that says "Start with X days until you have to make progress on this goal"
  5. Give your goal a brief name. If you want, you can also write a short description with more information.

    "Give your goal a name", with two boxes to first enter the goal slug, which will become the goal's URL, and then an optional short description of the goal
  6. Finally, choose your initial pledge. This is the amount you will pay the first time you derail on the goal. After derailing, the pledge will increase by default — use the dropdown below to control how high it goes by selecting the cap. In the example below, I have chosen to start at a $5 pledge, which will increase each time I derail, until it reaches $270 — the pledge cap. (To read more about pledges and payments, check out some FAQs!)

    If you want to start out with a sort of trial period, you can choose to start the goal at $0. If you do that, the pledge will automatically increase to $5 after seven days. If you derail before that, it will also increase to $5.

    Screenshot of the "Starting Stakes" screen. The text says "Your pledge will increase each time you derail until you reach your pledge cap (which you can adjust below)", with a demonstration below showing the pledge progression: 5, 10, 30, 90... to the pledge cap, which currently shows $270. Below, a checkbox button allows you to choose to "Hold the pledge at $0 for 7 days while I get my feet wet"
  7. Once you've stepped through the preview and confirmation, your goal is created! Here I have four days left before I need to complete one lesson on Maayot.
