Training is full of signals. A great ride. A flat run. A heavy squat session. A week where your legs felt gone before Tuesday. A power curve that's moving. An HRV trend that's trying to tell you something. Stride brings it all into one place, then helps you understand what to do next. Built for cyclists, runners, triathletes and coaches, Stride combines clear training analytics with Stride AI: an assistant that can plan your week, adjust your schedule, build structured workouts and explain what your training is telling you. With Stride, you can: • See your training load, fatigue, HRV, power, pace, FTP, Critical Power, W′ and more • Use Stride Insights to understand what went well, what to watch and what to do next • Build and adjust training plans with Stride AI • Generate structured workouts for rides, runs, swims and strength sessions • Track your power curve and power profile across key durations • Sync activities, sleep and HRV from Garmin, Wahoo, Hammerhead, Zwift, Rouvy, Apple Health, Whoop, Oura, Polar and more • Send structured workouts to Garmin, Wahoo, Coros and Zwift • Keep your training history, plans, workouts, recovery and analysis together Strength training Strength sits in the same plan as your riding and running, so the heavy days and the hard sessions are planned together. Stride AI builds sessions around your goals, your equipment and the rest of your week, or you can build your own. • Follow a session set by set, with weights and reps filled in from your plan and your last session • A rest timer that starts on its own when you tick off a set • More than 1,500 exercises, each with a demo video • Log without signal in the gym; your session uploads when you are back online • Personal records, estimated one-rep max and progress for every exercise • See how many sets each muscle group gets, week by week • Add your own exercises, and film a set for your coach to check your form For coaches • Build teams and put sessions straight onto your athletes' calendars • Ask Stride AI about any athlete you coach • Pay for your athletes' subscriptions Ask Stride AI to make the week easier.

KOMinator for Strava's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 26.1). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
