GimmeSum

When the race gets quiet, your people get loud. GimmeSum is a run, ride, swim & tri tracker with a heart: your friends and family record short voice cheers, and GimmeSum plays them OUT LOUD from your Apple Watch or iPhone at the exact spots you'll need them — mile 9 of the marathon, the top of the hill, the moment you climb out of the water at T1. THE CHEER SQUAD Create a race and invite your people. Each one claims a spot on your course — first come, first served — and records 30 seconds of their real voice. On race day, every cheer plays right on cue. No iPhone? No problem: cheerers can record straight from any web browser. RACE DAY, LIVE Flip on live sharing and your invite link becomes a live page: your dot moving along the real course, your stats, and a "Cheer now" button. A cheer recorded from the couch plays out loud on the course seconds later. When the day is done, every live cheer is saved as a keepsake. TRIATHLON Set up a sprint, Olympic, 70.3, or 140.6 and GimmeSum treats the whole day as one race: one Watch session, a TRANSITION button between legs, water lock through the swim, and cheer spots along the bike and run — plus T1 and T2, the two moments every triathlete earns a voice. The live map draws all three courses and pins every cheer on its leg. TRAIN FOR IT Pick a race and GimmeSum builds a week-by-week program that counts down to the start line — long runs, interval days with spoken reps and rests, rides, swims, and brick days. No race on the calendar? A rolling season trains you anyway: set your own weekly dial for each sport and the weeks climb gently from wherever you're starting — then hand the fitness off to a race build the day you sign up. Save your favorite courses as routes, chase your route records, race the ghost of your best self, and let the Hare pace you toward a goal time. Your Plan page greets you each morning with today's workout and an honest bit of encouragement. THE BOOST BANK Beyond races: friends record pep talks that live in your permanent boost bank. Any run, any ride, any time it gets hard — press the button and a familiar voice shows up. MADE FOR YOUR PEOPLE • Cheering is free, always — from the app or any browser. • No accounts. Your data lives in your own iCloud. • No ads, no analytics, no third parties. The free app includes unlimited workouts, races at every distance, live race day, routes, training programs, and three voices awake at a time — swap which three, any time, free forever. GimmeSum Unlimited ($9.99/year) wakes every voice: your whole bank and every cheer on your course. No voice is ever deleted — asleep voices are saved for good. Bring your people.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Elev8tion at none against GimmeSum's 1. Elev8tion also leads on iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). GimmeSum's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
