01
Sign up & pick a team
Join solo, join a team that's already competing, or create your own organization — add a logo and invite your people. It works the same for a company, a gym, a school, or a running crew.
Move together. Compete worldwide.
How Yankee Step Challenge works
Sign up, log steps that are verified from a screenshot, and compete against your own best week, your team, and organizations around the world — all while your personal data stays private.
Three steps to get moving
From signing up to competing against the world.
02
Log verified steps
Upload a screenshot from any tracker — Google Fit, Apple Health, Fitbit, Samsung Health, Garmin. The step count is read straight off the image and locked, so totals can't be faked by typing.
03
Compete & climb
Beat your own best week with goal rings and streaks, top your team's roster, and rank against organizations worldwide in the Global Arena.
Verified steps, honest leaderboards
The hardest part of any step challenge is trust. We solve it by reading the number directly off your tracker's screenshot instead of asking you to type it.
Read from the image
When you upload a screenshot, the daily step count is detected and locked to exactly what the picture shows. There's no editable field to inflate.
Unverified is labelled
Prefer to type it? You can — but the entry is clearly marked unverified and can be flagged for review, so honest totals rise to the top.
Confidence you can see
Every verified reading shows the source app and a confidence score, so teams and admins know the number is real.
Private by design
Personal and health data never crosses between members or teams. Isolation is enforced at the database level, not just in the app — so even a bug can't leak one member's data to another.
Your data is yours
Raw steps, screenshots, and contact details are locked to your account. No other member — or team — can read them.
Only aggregates go global
The Global Arena is powered by anonymous team totals, averages, and ranks. No individual identities or personal numbers are ever exposed.
The Global Arena
See every organization in the challenge — not just your own. Rank by total steps for raw output, or by average per person to level the field across team sizes, and tap any team to scout their roster.
Community & marketplace
More than a leaderboard — a place to share wins and grow local business.
Community board
Post fitness and wellness wins with photos, and back each other with likes and shares. Free for every member.
Business marketplace
Members can promote a business to every member's dashboard and track live views, clicks, and conversions. See pricing →
Works on every device
Install it in one tap on any phone or desktop. It keeps an offline app shell, respects reduced-motion and keyboard navigation, and can nudge you with step reminders — no app store required.
Frequently asked questions
The short answers people ask before starting a challenge.
How are steps verified so teams can't cheat?
You upload a screenshot from your steps app and the number is read directly off the image, then locked — you can't edit it. Manual entries are still allowed but clearly marked unverified and can be flagged by team admins, so leaderboards stay honest.
Which fitness apps are supported?
Any tracker that shows a daily step count on screen: Google Fit, Apple Health, Fitbit, Samsung Health, Huawei Health, Mi Fit / Zepp, Garmin, and most phone health widgets. If it shows steps, you can verify it.
Is my personal data private?
Yes. Your raw step data, screenshots, and contact details are locked to you. Only non-identifying team aggregates — totals, averages, and ranks — power the Global Arena. One member can never see another member's private information.
How does the Global Arena rank teams fairly?
You can rank by total steps or by average per person. Average levels the field so a five-person team can out-rank a fifty-person team on effort, not headcount.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It runs in any modern browser and installs as an app on your phone or desktop in one tap, with an offline app shell and step-reminder notifications.
