Cogworks

Cogworks is your garage's brain — a single home for tracking maintenance across every bike you own. Built for cyclists with more than one bike: the commuter and the weekend MTB, the road bike and the gravel rig, or the whole quiver of trail bikes you'd rather not admit to owning. WHAT COGWORKS DOES • Track wear — Live progress bars per component, calibrated to km, hours (suspension), or calendar months (tires, bar tape). See at a glance what's good, what's due, and what's overdue. • Log every service — Replacement, service, inspection, cleaning. Full history per component, never lost. • Get reminded — Daily reminder when anything crosses the threshold. No spam, just a heads-up before something breaks. • Bundled templates — Pre-built MTB, road, gravel, and commuter templates with sensible service intervals out of the box. Tweak freely or start blank. • Parts inventory — Track components across installs. A chain you pulled off the road bike keeps its lifetime km when you fit it to the gravel build. • iCloud sync — Your garage follows you across devices. End-to-end encrypted, on Apple's infrastructure. No accounts, no servers we control. DESIGN PRINCIPLES • Premium, not pushy — No ads, no nags, no fake urgency. The paywall triggers exactly once: when you add a second bike. • Privacy by default — Bike names, photos, costs, and notes never leave your device. Anonymous usage analytics only (off in Settings if you prefer). • Built native — SwiftUI, SwiftData, CloudKit. No webviews, no cross-platform tax. Loads fast, feels fast. FREE TIER 1 bike, full feature access. No time limit. PREMIUM Unlimited bikes. $2.99/month or $19.99/year (save 44%). Made by a solo developer in the Netherlands. Feedback is read by a human.
