I built a small Anki add-on that automatically sends your completed review count to Beeminder and figured I’d share it here.
It’s called AnkiMinder.
What it does right now is simple: it reads the Anki review log and sends the number of completed reviews to a Beeminder goal. No time tracking, no estimates, just actual finished reviews.
Latest version is v1.0.2.
You can download the release and the .ankiaddon file here:

I can’t publish it to AnkiWeb yet because my account isn’t old enough, but I will once I’m eligible.
For reference, this is the goal I’m using it with:

Not an official integration, just something I built for my own workflow and cleaned up enough to share. If anyone tries it and has feedback or ideas, I’m open to it.

Thanks so much for this! The beemind maintaned progress was always a bit glitchy for me for some reason.
Do you know of any way to get this working with AnkiDroid?
I wish! Unfortunately, AnkiDroid doesn’t accept add-ons, so that would involve writing a whole new app or adding the functionality directly into AnkiDroid.
My workflow (and the “easiest” way I’ve found) is to just make sure I open Anki on my PC every day - it syncs any mobile reviews I did upon startup and then I can either do my reviews on my PC or just close Anki again. Obviously doesn’t work super well over weekends or if travelling, but that’s the closest I’ve come.

On mobile you can fire an http request to beeminder on every (or every fifth) card you review. This works both on iOS or Android.
I ended up with binary goal just pushing 1 if do enough cards that day.
