How MOTRA Works

A simple 3 step process

Step 1: Train

Connect your wearable to MOTRA and start moving with intent.

MOTRA reads your heart rate data from each workout to understand how hard you’ve trained. From that, we determine your personal heart rate zones. Effort is measured in a way that reflects you.

Step 2: Earn

Your effort becomes Effort Points.

We calculate your intensity using heart rate zones. The harder you train, the more you earn. Every session adds to your monthly total. Everyone’s heart is different, we track yours.

Step 3: Convert

Effort Points are rewarded with $MOT Tokens.

At the end of each month, your share of verified effort is converted into real, spendable tokens. Use them in-app, trade, or hold. It’s your earned reward.

What Counts As Effort?

Effort is personal. But the way we measure it is proven.

Everyone’s heart rate zones are different, so MOTRA adapts to you.

We reward effort based on time spent in elevated heart rate zones, using a structure built around widely accepted training principles.

That means the harder you work relative to your body, the more you earn.
