Common questions
Read this first.
How squads work, what counts as proof, and how to get started — answered below.
GENERAL
What is GRIT?
GRIT is an accountability partner network.
You join a small squad (2–8 people), set a weekly goal, and prove you followed through.
Your squad sees it, votes on it, and holds you accountable.
Simple rule: it’s harder to disappear when people notice.
How does each week work?
Weeks run Monday → Sunday (US Eastern).
Each week:
- You set a goal (your number of proofs)
- You upload proof during the week
- Your squad verifies it
- Results drop Sunday night
Then everything resets and a new week starts.
JOIN A SQUAD
How do I join a squad?
You have 2 options:
- 1. 1-Week Squad (Quick Match)
- Tap “1-week squad” → Match
- Instant match
- Temporary squad (close on Sunday and reset weekly)

👉 More control, long-term squads
Can I join multiple squads?
No — only 1 squad at a time.
You need to leave your current squad before joining another. But you can have 1 additional 1-week squad at the same time.
What if a squad is full?
You can’t request to join.
Some squads stay small on purpose to keep accountability strong.

support@thegritapp.comAbout us
Built to make you
show up.
We kept running into the same thing.
Set goals, start strong, then slowly drift and tell ourselves we’d restart next week.
It wasn’t a discipline problem.
Nothing was holding it in place. When no one sees what you’re doing, it’s easy to let things slide and move on.
What changed wasn’t a better plan.
Just not doing it alone. A small group, one goal for the week, and actually showing up. The goal stayed the same — disappearing wasn’t as easy anymore.
The shift
95%
People are far more likely to achieve their goal when someone else expects it. You don't need the stat — you feel it almost immediately.
Most squads that last aren't more motivated.
They just don't let things go quiet.
That's GRIT. No hype. No overthinking.
Just a place where you don't get to disappear from the things you said you'd do.
Initiation
Discipline becomes
identity.
Most people stop early. GRIT is for the ones who don't.
