See what each record means, how it is earned, and where to find it. Every signed-in account — including free accounts — earns points and badges across daily readings, pauses, focus rounds, and small tasks.
One count and +10 points (or +5 for a partly completed focus round) for each eligible action. These counts build your activity milestones, Grove plants, and header points pill on every account.
Open Badges & progress →Points recorded by eligible actions in the 30-day Lab, rewarded small tasks and scored personal focus rounds. Each tool has its own award rules.
A focus round can appear here and in Focus points. The two displays describe the same round; their totals are not added together for a membership reward.
Open my profile →Points for a personal focus round and the outcome you choose: Done 10, Partly 5, Not this time 2. Time and daily limits apply.
See the focus rules →+10 points for an eligible Checkpoint or Urge pause on any signed-in account. Earlier annual contracts also count eligible period points toward their monthly renewal rewards.
See the Checkpoint rules →Your records describe activity reported in DopaNudge. They are not an assessment of attention, ability or how much your day mattered.
Your activity breakdown shows the source of each recorded count. An eligible event contributes one activity, whatever its point value.
The first completion of a distinct task can award 10 Neuro XP (+10 points) and one qualifying activity. Up to ten distinct tasks receive this award per UTC day. Reopening, editing or deleting a task does not make its completion new again. Repeating the same task wording on the same UTC day does not earn another award.
Later completions still update your task list after the daily award limit is reached. Planning a next step or saving a return note does not award points.
Open Today →The first recorded completion of an eligible reading in your active path awards +10 points and contributes one qualifying activity. Returning to that same reading does not add another. Reading activity is separate from the Lab's Neuro XP.
Choosing “Try this today” prepares a draft. It does not complete a task or award points.
Open My path →A round needs at least 80% of its selected duration to earn points. At most 6 rounds receive points per day in the round's saved time zone.
Scored Done (+10) and Partly (+5) outcomes each contribute one qualifying activity. A scored Not this time outcome earns 2 Focus points but no qualifying activity. Leaving a round without a result awards no points. Later rounds can still be recorded after the limit.
The standalone Timer and Tools' “Guess, then notice” practice have no point awards. Your personal focus round does not automatically complete a Today task.
Open Focus round →An eligible saved pause with the outcome Redirected or Conscious break earns +10 points and one qualifying activity on every signed-in account — including free accounts and one-time lifetime accounts — up to ten awards per UTC day and at least five minutes apart. Checkpoint and Urge pause share this daily cap and spacing rule. A pause can still be saved when no points are available.
Recording the same event again creates no new award. Annual renewal rewards follow your membership contract separately.
Open Checkpoint →Tools practices, day and week reflections, a change of Grove view, and Together cards do not add points or qualifying activities.
All your badges and your Grove are openly visible on Badges & progress, and Plain or Grove views are also available in Tools. Neither needs daily care.
Earned at 1, 25, 50, 100 qualifying activities. These four milestones place the four plants in your Grove.
Earned after 1, 3, 6, 12 qualifying months within one membership year. Each of these months needs 100 qualifying activities.
Reading badges mark completed-reading milestones. Shield badges mark recorded redirected urges or conscious breaks. A break from the site does not remove earned Grove plants or badges.
Day notes and current tasks can be removed or edited. Minimal award records may remain to prevent a repeated reward and preserve earned activity milestones. Deleting focus rounds also removes their Focus points; a saved qualifying-activity record can remain. Full account deletion removes the account's records. Review export and deletion controls.
Under the current annual policy, each of all twelve membership months needs 100 qualifying activities for a US$12 following year. Otherwise the annual policy price is US$24. The months start from your membership date; extra activity in one month does not fill another.
Earlier annual contracts keep their Nudge-point reward rules. A total of Neuro XP or Focus points does not replace those requirements. My membership shows the terms and dates recorded for your account.
Under the original annual plan, each month with 1,000 Nudge points in the first membership year earns a free month toward the second year. Twelve earned months can cover that second year.
Under the later Nudge-point annual plan, each membership year starts a new reward period. Each month with 1,000 Nudge points reduces the following annual renewal by US$2 or €2, from US$48 or €48 to a minimum US$24 or €24. A supported local-currency purchase keeps its own contract terms.
New annual checkout is not available yet. These policy amounts are not a payment quote. See access and pricing.
Progress can be a small action, a useful pause or a note you want to return to. The points are optional encouragement alongside that work.
