## What is StrideCue?

Run to your perfect cadence — without ever looking at your phone.

StrideCue is a real-time AI running coach that listens to your stride, pace, and heart rate, then guides you with adaptive audio cues. Improve your form. Run easier. Finish stronger. From your first 5K to a marathon PR, StrideCue is a coach in your ear during the run, adapting to YOU in real time.

WHY CADENCE MATTERS

Running research has long pointed to a stride rate around 170–180 SPM as a common sweet spot for many runners — easier on the legs, smoother on the form, and a useful reference when you're learning what an "easy" run actually feels like. But you can't watch a metronome screen mid-run, and a beep-only metronome doesn't adapt to your pace, terrain, or heart rate. StrideCue does.

REAL-TIME AI COACHING

StrideCue's coaching brain runs while you do. Live audio cues respond to:

• Your steps per minute (SPM) — speed up or slow down toward a target cadence
• Your real-time pace and pace drift
• Your heart rate and zone (Zone 1 through Zone 5)
• Your distance, elapsed time, and elevation

No menus. No typing. Plug in your headphones and run.

WATCH-FIRST DESIGN

The Apple Watch app is your runner. It tracks every stride, talks directly to the StrideCue coaching backend, and runs the entire workout — even if you leave your phone at home. Most coaching apps need a phone in your pocket. StrideCue doesn't.

ADAPTIVE TRAINING PLANS

Pick your goal — first 5K, faster 5K, 10K, half marathon, or marathon — and StrideCue builds a plan that adapts to YOUR fitness and YOUR effort, not a one-size template. Easy days get easier when you need them. Hard days get harder when you're ready.

WHO IT'S FOR

• New runners coming off Couch-to-5K who want to actually start running well
• Intermediate runners chasing a 5K, 10K, or half marathon PR
• Marathon trainees who want cadence and zone awareness for the long miles
• Anyone who's been told to "fix their cadence" and didn't know how
• Runners returning from training breaks who want easy-run discipline

A NOTE ON AI COACHING

StrideCue's plans and coach messages are generated with the help of AI for fitness and motivation purposes only. They are not medical advice. Talk to your doctor before starting a new training program, especially if you're recovering from injury or have a heart or musculoskeletal condition.

Open the app, plug in your headphones, hit start. No setup, no menus.
