for everyone who quit LeetCode on day 6
You do the coding.
We handle the motivation.
DSAMotivator sits on top of LeetCode and makes daily practice a streak you refuse to break — with freezes for bad days, XP for every solve, and a pattern map that fills in as you level up.
Built on behavioral science, not willpower
Four mechanisms, backed by four decades of published research — then battle-tested on hundreds of millions of people by the apps you already can't stop opening. We just pointed the same machinery at your DSA prep. No dark patterns — you'd see through them anyway.
Streaks that hurt to lose
Loss aversion is roughly twice as strong as the pull of reward. A streak turns your consistency into property — and freezes (earned every 7 days) insure it against one bad day.
Proven at scale: Duolingo calls streaks their single most effective retention mechanic.
XP with surprise bonuses
Every solve pays 10–75 XP with a random 1–1.5× multiplier. Variable-ratio rewards produce the most persistent behavior ever measured in a lab.
The schedule Skinner documented in 1957 — and every feed you doomscroll runs on.
A map that begs to be finished
20 DSA patterns as a skill tree that lights up as you solve. Incomplete structures occupy the mind until they're closed.
The Zeigarnik effect (1927) — and why your GitHub graph's grey squares bother you.
Your plan, not our nagging
On day 1 you write one sentence: “after dinner, 9pm, 1 problem.” Our only reminder is that sentence, sent back to you at the moment you chose.
Implementation intentions: medium-to-large effect across 94 studies (d ≈ 0.65).
Three steps. Two minutes.
Connect LeetCode
Username only — we read public stats and import your history. Your existing progress lights up the map on day 1.
Commit to a tiny plan
“After dinner, 9pm, 1 problem.” Small enough to survive your worst day. That's the point.
Solve on LeetCode, as usual
We detect accepted submissions automatically. Streak extends, XP lands, map fills. You just keep showing up.
Bring your own sheet.
Following NeetCode 150? Striver's SDE Sheet? Blind 75? A random Notion doc your senior sent you? Doesn't matter. Every accepted LeetCode submission extends your streak, earns XP, and fills your Pattern Map — no matter where the problem came from.
your_sheet.forEach(problem => weCount(it))
early access
“The founding cohort is filling in their maps right now. Their streaks will be here soon — yours could be one of them.”
Costs less than your coffee budget
7-day full-access trial first. A job switch is worth roughly 1000× the 6-month plan — we did the math so you don't have to.

Fair questions
Do you need my LeetCode password?+
Never. You give us your username, we read your public stats, and you prove ownership by pasting a one-time code into your profile summary. That's the whole handshake.
What counts as keeping my streak?+
One accepted LeetCode submission per day, in your timezone. That's deliberately tiny — the worst day of your week still fits one Easy problem.
What if I miss a day?+
You earn a streak freeze for every 7-day run (you can hold 2). A missed day consumes a freeze automatically instead of killing the streak. One bad Tuesday shouldn't erase a month.
Is there a free tier?+
No — 7-day full-access trial, no card required, then it's paid. A free tier would make us optimize for ads and engagement tricks. We'd rather charge less than a coffee and answer only to you.
Why would I pay for motivation?+
You're not paying for motivation, you're paying for consistency infrastructure: streak accounting that's timezone-correct, freezes, reminders built from your own plan, and a map of what you've actually mastered. The DSA itself stays free on LeetCode.
Can I cancel?+
Anytime, in two clicks. Your XP and Pattern Map history stay yours — if you come back, you don't restart from zero.
Day 1 is free. So are the next six.
By day 7 you'll have a streak, a level, and a map that's started to glow. Then you'll understand why there's no free tier.
