The Accountability Experiment
31 days. Real commitment. With Clara by your side.
Starting January 1, 2027, Clara AI is helping you keep the promises you make to yourself, one honest daily check-in at a time.
What happens when you stop keeping your goals a secret?
Most of us make promises to ourselves quietly, and break them just as quietly. The Accountability Experiment changes that. For the month of January, you'll name what you're committing to, check in every day with Clara, and track your progress honestly. No perfection required. Just daily follow-through, gentle accountability, and a community doing it right alongside you.
Three simple phases
Prepare
Nov 1 to Dec 31, 2026
Get clear on what matters. Clara shares prep prompts, reflections, and daily inspiration leading up to launch.
Commit
January 1, 2027
Declare your intention with Clara. Write it down, say it out loud, and step in.
Show Up
Jan 1 to 31, 2027
31 days of daily check-ins, honest reflections, and encouragement when motivation fades. Progress over perfection.
January 1 is the starting line. November 1 is when we begin preparing.
Most New Year's resolutions fail long before the goal becomes impossible.
They fail because people enter January with excitement but without structure.
Beginning November 1, you'll receive access to a guided preparation experience designed to create clarity, identify patterns, establish accountability, and prepare you for 30 consecutive days of intentional follow-through.

Meet Clara AI
Clara is an AI wellness companion created by Portrayals XR founder Tricia Lea, built to carry her voice, encouragement, and no-excuses love into your day. During the Experiment, Clara helps you reflect, reset, and keep going, any time of day or night.
Daily Check-Ins
A quick, honest moment each day to track how you're showing up.

Why we created this
“As a teacher and founder, I’ve seen that people rarely fail for lack of knowing what to do. They fail in the space in between. Clara was built for that space. Because accountability isn’t punishment. It’s self-love.”
Tricia Lea, Founder, Portrayals XR

Official Rules
Eligibility
The Accountability Experiment is open to individuals 18 years of age or older. One registration per person and per email address. Registration is complete only after payment of the one-time Founding Participant fee is confirmed.
Founding Participant Places
A place is held only by a confirmed payment. Starting checkout creates a temporary 15-minute reservation that does not reduce the available places permanently.
What Is Included
Preparation access beginning November 1, 2026, the guided preparation experience, access to Portrayals during the preparation period and daily during the 30-day experiment, group accountability, progress tracking, the initial and final reflections, and a personalized final Accountability Report.
Experiment Period
The official 30-day experiment begins January 1, 2027. Participation means using Portrayals every day for 30 consecutive days and completing the initial and final reflections.
Completion Credit
Participants who satisfy the published completion requirements, the required daily check-ins and the final reflection, receive a $50 credit toward an eligible annual Portrayals membership. Credits are issued only after the requirements are verified, and are not automatic.
Annual Access Recognition
Three participants will receive one full year of Portrayals. Recognition is awarded on the basis of published performance criteria: consistent daily participation, completion of the preparation experience, completion of the initial and final reflections, thoughtful use of the platform, meaningful participation in the community, and demonstrated commitment to personal follow-through. Selection is based on these criteria and is not a sweepstakes, drawing, raffle, or game of chance.
Refunds
The Founding Participant fee is a one-time payment. Refund requests are reviewed by the Portrayals XR team. A refunded or disputed payment releases the participant's place and removes eligibility for the completion credit and annual access recognition.
Not Medical Care
Portrayals XR is a personal development and accountability platform. It is not a replacement for therapy, medical care, or emergency services.
