Workout. Earn points. Receipts connects directly to wearables and rewards you for working out. We authenticate minutes of elevated heart rate (we call these “intensity minutes”), our universal metric for performance in the human body - regardless of sport or activity.

"how is @receiptsxyz different from strava?" we authenticate workouts directly from wearables, & reward based on elevated heart rate because heart rate is our key metric, folks have receipts for all kinds of workouts: surfing, climbing, skating, yoga, dancing, pickleball, etc.

The data on cardiovascular exercise improving brain function in the hours following are pretty impressive. The data showing the same for resistance training, not so much. Both are important but clearly there’s something special about elevating heart rate (for focus afterwards).
