Pavlok 1 User: Get the Pavlok 2 Upgrade Secret Perk By Logging In With Your Pavlok ID Here

Pavlok has become world famous for helping people break bad habits like sleeping in, nail biting, food cravings, smoking, and wasting time online.

Pavlok’s patent-pending electric stimulus releases a zap, ranging from 50-450V, that quickly gets your attention and triggers the brain out of automatic mode.

Over 45,000 people have purchased and used the original Pavlok. For the most part, the original Pavlok relied on the user pressing the zap button when they did their bad habit -- very few habits were automatic.

So, we spent the last 2 years building an upgraded wearable behavior change platform that combines psychology, technology, sensors, and accountability to help you automatically track AND change almost any habit.

And we’re proud to introduce Pavlok 2.

Meet Pavlok 2 - Your Personal Coach On Your Wrist

You are what you repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act..but a habit. - Aristotle

Pavlok 1 was the world’s first behavior training wearable. But we wanted to take what we built to the next level.

Pavlok 2 combines accurate tracking, commitment techniques, and 'on-your-wrist' reminder triggers to change users' brains and form the habits they wish they had.

Are you new to Pavlok?  Here's how Pavlok helps you reduce cravings and break bad habits…

Reduce cravings

Pavlok’s zap sends voltage to your wrist. The sensation is surprising -- it feels like touching a doorknob after wearing socks on carpet.

The zap triggers awareness in the brain. When you catch yourself experiencing a craving, press the button and you’ll feel the zap. The craving will dissipate after a few zaps.

Break Bad Habits

To break bad habits for good, follow our 5-day aversive conditioning course (in the app).

Breaking habits is done through creating an aversion. Do you have any friends who drank so much tequila that they got sick --- and never drink tequila again?

By overloading a negative sensation at the same time as doing a bad habit, your brain creates a Pavlovian association to that habit --- and stops LIKING it.

Here are 21 studies on the efficacy of aversive conditioning.

With Pavlok 2’s motion tracking, Pavlok can automatically make you aware

With Pavlok 2’s integrated habit tracking system, Pavlok can detect when you’re doing your bad habit and automatically make you aware.

When Pavlok detects you engaging in your habit, it will automatically vibrate, beep or zap to warn you to stop.  How does it know?  Through a combination of sensors and integrations:

Use Pavlok 2’s machine learning motion tracking if your habit involves motion (such as biting your nails, nervously tapping your feet, smoking cigarettes, etc.)

Use Pavlok’s fitness tracking to receive stimulus when you are off track to meet your step goal for the day.

Use Pavlok’s IFTTT integration to automatically receive stimulus when you don’t visit the gym each day.

And more!

And for the first time, form NEW habits.

Introducing our newest module: Pavlok Rise

For the first time, we are helping people not just break BAD habits --- but form good ones too.

Pavlok Rise helps you get to sleep on time, wake up early, and form the morning routines of the world's most successful people

We are building a brand new iOS and Android app (shipping in September) that takes the guesswork out of forming morning routines. Here's how it works.

1. First, download the app.
2. Choose a preloaded routine or customize your own.
3. Wear the Rise wearable to sleep.
4. Rise will wake you up on time, and the app will walk you through your chosen morning routine.

With rise, form the habits that will change your life. You can choose from tons of activities, including the following.

You can learn more about Pavlok Rise on the Rise Website.

FAQ

Is There A Return Policy For Indiegogo Backers?

Because this is a campaign where the money raised is going toward product development, we will not be accepting returns or refunds once the campaign ends. You are supporting a mission and joining a community. As we reach stretch goals & development milestones, those are promises (and money spent on development) that we can't take back. Therefore, we are asking for your full support as we work to make Rise as powerful & helpful as possible. As with all of our other products, you can rest easy knowing your protected by a 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Will Rise Come With All Of The Features Of Shock Clock And Pavlok?

Rise is a brand new app that is separate from the current Pavlok app used by the Shock Clock and Pavlok. Rise buyers who are new to the Pavlok community will begin with only the Rise app unlocked, and they will be able to unlock additional modules & features (like the Pavlok habit breaking app) by completing their daily goals, checking in, and other in-app tasks. Current Pavlok or Shock Clock users who purchase Rise will maintain their current level of app access, while also gaining all of the Rise features.

To make it simple: you will never have less than you currently have, and you will always be able to gain access to more by earning in-app credits to unlock new features.

How does the sleep tracking work?

Sleep tracking works using the Pavlok 2 wearable’s internal accelerometer and gyroscope to detect position and movement over both short and long periods of time while you are asleep. With this data, Pavlok 2 and Rise are able to approximately detect when you are in REM vs. non-REM sleep, as well as when is the optimum time to wake you up without suffering from “sleep inertia” (waking up while in deep sleep). By learning from your feedback each morning and your sleep data, we also hope to develop Rise and Pavlok 2 to be able to detect your optimum amount of sleep, and remind you when it is time to go to bed to get your best night’s sleep.

How is the new model size compared to the old one?

Pavlok 2, the wearable part of the Rise system, is the same size, shape, and weight as the original Pavlok. To keep tooling costs down and increase reliability (while decreasing the chance we hit some sort of delay during development) our team chose to reuse the original body design, and fit the new circuit board and features inside of it. What has been created is the best of both worlds: improved speed and capability with proven durability.

What is Rise?

Rise is the brand new morning routine app from Pavlok. It is the first Pavlok app to focus specifically on habit formation (not habit breaking). It will help you get to bed on time, make sure you wake up early, and guide you through the formation of a healthy morning routine. Choose from dozens of famous routines (like Albert Einstein’s) or create your own custom routine. Rise will then help you stick to that routine every day with guided instructions and regular check-ins, while allowing you to see your progress and interact with others who are on the journey to forming a healthier and happier morning.

How is Pavlok 2 different than my current Pavlok?

Pavlok 2 features a more powerful processor, upgraded accelerometer/gyroscope (9-axis compared to Pavlok’s 3-axis), and improved bluetooth radio for more reliable pairing. Pavlok 2 will be capable of learning gestures associated with your habit so that it can automatically trigger feedback at the moment you start doing your habit - no button press or integration required. Pavlok 2's more powerful processor will also be capable of advanced patters for beep/vibrate/zap, meaning you can create unique notifications that will alert you to exactly what you are getting a notification for without having to look at your phone.

Do Current Pavlok And Shock Clock Owners Get A Discount On Pavlok 2?

Yes! Absolutely. We want to reward you for being a loyal Pavlok customer. Although current Pavlok and Shock Clock will continue to function just fine and you will not be forced to upgrade, we do want to encourage current users to step up to the next generation of hardware so that you can take full advantage of the new features we have planned, and any future features that we develop. Pavlok and Shock Clock owners can click here to claim the special discounted price. NOTE: only valid for current users, please use the same email as your Pavlok account when purchasing this perk.

What kinds of morning routines are available?

The number of morning routines available for you to try is is virtually limitless, since routines are customizable and can be built out of a series of individual actions (example: wake up + shower + eat an egg + write 200 words in a journal). In other cases you may just want to adopt the morning routine of someone who has proven to be very successful in life, in which case you’ll be able to select that famous routine with one click (example: the Einstein consists of wake up, drink water, prepare breakfast, read while eating breakfast, movement (exercise or a long walk). To see more examples of famous morning routines, visit the product info page at http://pavlok.com/rise

How will it help with morning routines?

A viable morning routine starts with a good night’s sleep. That’s where Rise starts too – by reminding you when it is time to go to bed for an optimal night’s sleep. While you sleep, Pavlok 2 and Rise work together to track your restfulness, and then do their best to wake you up in your lightest stage of sleep at or before your chosen wake up time. Once you’re up, Rise keeps you out of bed by immediately guiding you through your morning routine in the app, where you can indicate each time you complete a step of your routine. To make sure you don’t cheat yourself out of success, Rise also re-triggers your alarm if it detects that you have fallen back to sleep.

How does Rise notify me?

Rise can trigger an alarm or notification on your phone, or it can send haptic notifications to the Pavlok 2 – either single notifications or notification patterns in the form of LED flashes, vibration, sound or electric stimulus.

How does it know whether I did my morning routine?

Rise can use the movement tracking in the Pavlok 2 to know whether you are asleep or out of bed. In the future, Pavlok 2 will also be able to learn gestures and movements, meaning it may be possible for it to automatically detect when you are doing a certain habit. For morning routines that are “offline” (like taking a shower) you can tell the Rise app you did it, while “online” activities (like learning a language on Duolingo or meditating using an app like Headspace) will be auto-detected once the integrations have been built.

What can it track?

At launch, Rise will only use Pavlok 2 to track your movement and position during sleep to give you data on how restful your sleep was. As we continue development of the platform, Rise will eventually be able to track other online and offline actions using either a software integration (for things like practicing a language with Duolingo) or Pavlok 2 detection of gestures (for things like brushing your teeth). We’re always looking for ways we can make Rise and Pavlok 2 smarter, so feel free to suggest your ideal use for habit tracking by emailing us at support@pavlok.com

Is there a Developer API?

Pavlok's new hardware is designed to be an extendable platform. We've released a Developer API to build a dev community around adding new applications and capabilities of Pavlok, right now that mostly means IFTTT and similar integrations, but sky's the limit.

Are Pavlok And Shock Clock Going Away? Will They Still Work?

The hardware for Pavlok and Shock Clock will be replaced by the new Pavlok 2 hardware starting in September 2017. Your current Pavlok and Shock Clock will continue to work, even after the new hardware is introduced. They will maintain the current level of functionality and features, though we will no longer be offering firmware updates or new features. We’ve maxed out the capabilities of the current microprocessor, and we cannot add any more lines of code to program new features. If you’d like to upgrade, you will be able to do so for a deep discount.
