Beeminder for AI agents

Beeminder is a goal-tracking service that charges users money if they fall off a committed goal, used by individuals who want a financial incentive to stay on track. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

What agents do in Beeminder.

01

Check progress on a goal

Get all goals for a user to see which ones are at risk of derailing before a deadline.

02

Review archived goals

Get archived goals to look back at a goal someone completed or gave up on.

03

Confirm before a pledge charge

Look up a goal's status before creating a charge, since charges take real money from the user's card.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Beeminder connects.

Users sign in to Beeminder on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Beeminder OAuth app, or bring your own so the Beeminder consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

The same Beeminder connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Beeminder and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Beeminder with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Beeminder to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Beeminder actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Beeminder?

Users sign in to Beeminder on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Beeminder OAuth app, or bring your own so the Beeminder consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

Q03

Which Beeminder actions can my agent take?

5 in total: 3 read, 2 write and 0 destructive, such as “create Charge”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Beeminder?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Beeminder policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Beeminder too?

Yes. The same Beeminder connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
