Goaltree vs Habitica
Habitica turns your habits and to-dos into a role-playing game. Goaltree keeps habits simple and pairs them with goals that an AI turns into a plan. Both help you build habits; they motivate you in different ways.

What Habitica does well
- Turns tasks into a retro RPG: you create an avatar and earn gold, experience and items as you complete things. [2]
- Three task types in one place: Habits, Dailies on a repeating schedule, and a traditional To-Do list. [2]
- Social accountability built in: team up in parties, join challenges with shared task lists, and connect in guilds. [1] [2]
- Open source and free to use, run by a small team. [2]
Who Habitica suits
People who are motivated by game mechanics, collecting rewards and playing alongside friends, and who want habits, routines and to-dos in one game.
Where Goaltree is different
- Goaltree is not a game. Progress shows up as streaks, streak freezes and habit levels that grow from Seed to Ancient, without an avatar to manage.
- Goals get a plan: describe a goal in one sentence and the AI builds milestones, targets and tasks, then Today picks up to 5 tasks a day across your goals.
- An AI coach that knows your habits and goals, with chat, spoken replies and voice calls with live captions on Pro.
- Number habits for calories, water or steps with a daily target, and groves where up to 8 friends keep one shared streak.
