Most habit apps let you lie to yourself. Miss a day? Mark it done. Streak saved. STRIKE removes that escape hatch. When your alarm fires, you get one window to validate. Miss it — streak resets to zero. No editing history. No second chances. 3 modes: Builder (build good habits), Killer (break bad ones), Pomodoro (deep work). Real alarms. Not notifications. Iron discipline.
Hey PH — Abdelaziz here, maker of STRIKE.
The core idea came from a specific moment: I realized I could open
any habit app the morning after missing my routine and just mark it
done. Streak intact. Conscience clear. Habit never built.
I wanted an app that would refuse to let me do that.
Also — I'm using STRIKE itself to hold me accountable while launching
STRIKE. Daily strikes for upvoting, commenting, and posting.
Zero second chances, even for the maker.
Happy to answer any questions about the product decisions or the build.
What would you want in a habit app that actually holds you accountable?

Who hunted STRIKE?
STRIKE was hunted by Abdelaziz Misbah. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
