I'd pay a monthly fee for a service that let me create one of these and integrate it with the various workout/personal stats apps/gadgets/services. An app like Moves + a sleep monitor + a workout tracking app + a diet tracker all on one dashboard would be really neat.

Been building something like that at http://ontrack.io with a very robust api (http://ontrack.io/api) with ability to input data and export at will.

I've been building something similar, allowing anyone to track _anything_ about themselves or their daily life in pretty graphs: http://ontrack.io/ I've also built a very extensible API for it from the beginning: http://ontrack.io/api

Awesome! Excited to check this out -- I've had the same idea kicking around in my head for a while.

I recently bought a fitbit, their online dashboard is pretty similar and you get access without a monthly fee. I'm pretty sure you can sign up and try it without getting a fitbit tracker, but the tracker is pretty nifty and it lights up the dashboard with all your info.

I've been using mine for two months and I love it. They have an data API http://dev.fitbit.com/ and said they may open a hardware one too.

Does the vibrate wake up feature work well? Do you feel you are able to wake easier? That is pretty much the only feature I care about.

Is there a demo of it that's up for people to see?

You can make an account and enter data, but there is no demo available now. That's a good idea, though.
