Overview
Build apps that help people change their behavior.
Build for behavior change
GameBus is a framework for building web apps that support behavior change.
Instead of writing an app from scratch, you configure reusable components to fit your study, project, or program. This lets you reuse the same platform across different contexts while tailoring each app to its specific purpose.
GameBus includes a range of behavior change techniques, such as goal setting, self-monitoring, social comparison, and feedback. It also supports gamification-inspired strategies, including levels, leaderboards, newsfeeds, and streaks.
You can enable, disable, and configure these strategies for your intended context. You can also tailor them to individual users—for example, by showing certain behavior change techniques to some users but not to others.
This allows you to build interventions from reusable components, including components that have shown promising or effective results in previous studies.
And if the behavior change technique you need is not yet available? GameBus is extensible. You can add new components yourself.
