## What is Cradle?

Build your game, one practice at a time.

Cradle brings wrestling workouts, shadow practice, match tracking, film review, and your training journal into one native iOS app.

START WITH YOUR GAME
Choose your wrestling style, experience, focus, and available time. Try a 30-second shadow round before creating an account, then keep a starter plan built from your choices and Cradle’s exercise library.

TRAIN WITH INTENTION
Build technique, strength, conditioning, cardio, drilling, recovery, and shadow sessions. Follow exercise instructions, use native timers, and save completed workouts to your history.

FIND YOUR SOLO RHYTHM
Practice shadow wrestling with spoken movement cues, work rounds, and rest breaks. Choose a fixed cadence or Random mode for changing movements and cue intervals.

MAKE PROGRESS VISIBLE
Earn 50 XP for a completed workout and 20 XP when you log your own match win. Reach a daily goal, build an activity streak, and celebrate with a brief reward moment. Add a photo to your saved workout stats and share the result.

KEEP YOUR CORNER TOGETHER
Track match scores and results. Record training notes. See practices, matches, and Apple Calendar events in one place. Connecting Apple Calendar is optional; its event details stay on your device. You choose which Cradle events to add to Apple Calendar.

LEARN FROM YOUR FILM
Review wrestling footage with AI-assisted feedback and correction drills. Keep Coach conversations and training plans alongside your progress. AI feedback may be imperfect and should be reviewed with your coach.

PLANS AND FILM REVIEWS
Try the onboarding shadow round before creating an account. Premium unlocks training tools, Coach, match tracking, your journal, and focused plans. Weekly includes 3 film reviews in any 7 days; monthly includes 15 per calendar month; annual includes 10 per calendar month. Lifetime training includes 50 film reviews, 500 Coach requests and 12 AI plans total, with no renewal of those AI allowances. Additional 10- or 30-review packs are available separately and do not require Premium. No free trial.

Film reviews analyze selected frames from clips up to 90 seconds. A maximum of 3 completed reviews per rolling 24 hours and other AI usage limits apply. Purchased credits do not expire while Cradle’s film service is available; subscription allowances do not roll over. Local prices and billing periods appear before purchase.

Cradle is for ages 13 and older. Users under 18 need parent or guardian permission. AI feedback is not medical advice. You choose whether to share messages, plan preferences or selected video frames with OpenAI.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple account settings. Lifetime training and review packs are one-time purchases.

### 1/5 — What the hell is this?

*2026-03-14*

Hi Cradle, let me start by saying how fed up I am by these types of apps.

This isn’t the first time I’ve come across some stupid paywall app in the form of an “AI wrestling coach.” It isn’t even just the paywall, just the fact that I got my expectations up knowing DAMN well I wouldn’t be able to use any features without a subscription.

Words cannot express my anger for this, everyday I see a new app promoting self improvement, and they all have a paywall. Where they make you sign up, ask you questions, and then slap you in the face with a “SIGN UP FOR PREMIUM! ONE MONTH FREE!!”

I wish I could remove these apps off the App Store one by one. If you’re gonna get people’s hopes up and then hit them with a paywall, just make the app cost money. It isn’t that hard, seriously.

### 5/5 — great
