An AI accountability partner that shows up.
Accountability is just a person asking about the thing you said you'd do. Brumo is that person — available when you need it, quiet when you don't.
Why most accountability apps don't stick
Accountability breaks when it becomes performative. Streak-based apps turn your goals into a leaderboard you're losing to. Coach-matching apps require human coordination that people avoid when they're actually slipping.
The real model is simpler: you tell someone what you said you'd do, and at the right moment they ask how it went. No gamification. No subscription anxiety.
How Brumo holds you accountable
Tell him the commitment in plain English. "i'm gonna run 3x a week starting monday." He stores it and, on Pro, checks in on a cadence that makes sense. If you hit it, he acknowledges. If you didn't, he asks what got in the way — no guilt trip.
He tracks streaks when you want them (text him "starting a 30-day thing on X"), and doesn't when you don't. You set the temperature of the accountability.
The magic is the low cost of admitting you slipped. No human you'd feel bad disappointing. Just a text that says "missed this week, back at it monday" and he adjusts.

How to set a commitment
- 01Text Brumo the commitment: "i'm gonna [X]" or "hold me to [Y]".
- 02Say when you want him to ask about it (or let him pick).
- 03Reply honestly when he asks. Missing a week isn't a big deal.
- 04End it any time — "stop asking about running" works.
Questions
Does he shame me for missing things?
No. That's the whole point. Missed weeks get a 'what got in the way' not a 'you failed'. Shame-based accountability is proven to make follow-through worse, not better.
Can he track more than one commitment at a time?
Yes. He keeps them separate. You can have a running goal, a reading goal, and a stopped-drinking goal running simultaneously.
Can I turn off a commitment without telling him?
You can, from the Brain tab. But honestly, just text him — he handles it gracefully.
Accountability is a friend asking about the thing you said mattered. Brumo is that friend, minus the guilt when you miss.
