Accountability partner agreement template
A one-page agreement you can print, sign, and actually keep. Written for men quitting porn, but it works for any oath—drink, phone, gym, focus. Print it, or copy the words. No email required.
Accountability Agreement
My commitment. I, , give my word that I will starting .
Why this matters to me.
What I'm asking of you. Check in with me every . Ask me directly: "Did you keep your word?" Expect a straight answer. Don't lecture me when I slip—ask me what happened and what changes.
What you are not. You are not my parole officer, my therapist, or my conscience. You're my witness. The work is mine.
When I slip. I will tell you within 24 hours, without being asked. A slip reported honestly is a scar, not a surrender. Hiding it is the real break.
Review date. We'll review this agreement on and renew, revise, or retire it.

How to use it
- Make the commitment specific. "I will not watch porn" beats "I'll do better." One sentence, no loopholes.
- Pick a cadence you'll survive. Daily for the first month, weekly after. A check-in that gets skipped twice is dead.
- Say it out loud when you sign. A spoken commitment binds harder than a signed one. That's the entire premise of Oathfire.
Your word is your weapon.
Oathfire is launching on iOS. Get early access—swear one oath, out loud, and keep it.
Questions men actually ask
What should an accountability partner agreement include?
The commitment being made, what the partner will and won't do, how often you check in, what honesty looks like when a slip happens, and how long the agreement runs before you review it.
Does accountability work without software?
Yes—the agreement is the accountability; software just automates reporting. What matters is a clear commitment, scheduled check-ins, and honesty about slips. Oathfire is built on that same principle: your word, answered for nightly, no surveillance.
