STEM Line Builder

STEM Line Builder helps you design "lines" (routines) for longboard dancing. Upload a carving video filmed head-on and the AI reads your posture to draw your board's trajectory as a top-down map. Then just tap a carve on the path and place a step you've learned -- only steps that fit the carves before and after are offered, so your line always flows. --- About subscriptions - Yearly plan: 4,000 JPY / year (auto-renewing) - Monthly plan: 500 JPY / month (auto-renewing) - Lifetime: 8,000 JPY (one-time purchase, does not renew) Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and are billed to your Apple ID.
