Know exactly how ready your body is today, before you train. PulseKit turns your Apple Health data into two clear daily scores: a 0-100 Recovery score and a 0-21 Strain score. It reads your HRV, sleep, resting heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature, SpO2 and VO2 max, compares them against your own rolling baselines, and tells you whether to push hard or hold back. No chest strap, no extra hardware. Just your iPhone and Apple Watch. WHY PULSEKIT - Personalized to you. Scores are built from your own baselines, not generic averages. - Private by design. Your health data is processed on device. - Actually actionable. Every morning you get a plain answer, not a wall of charts. WHAT YOU GET - Recovery score (0-100) from HRV, sleep, resting HR, respiratory rate, temperature, SpO2 and VO2 max. - Strain score (0-21) that tracks training load from your workouts and heart rate. - Daily Why: a plain-language read on what drove today's recovery, generated privately on device. - Recovery Journal: log lifestyle tags like alcohol, poor sleep, stress, travel or sauna and see which ones actually move your recovery. - Early-warning signals that flag when your baselines drift, so you can spot the strain of illness or overtraining sooner. Informational only, not a medical diagnosis. - Trends over 7, 30 and 90 days, plus correlations between sleep, strain and recovery. - Personal goals for strain and sleep, with reminders to keep you on track. NEW IN 1.6 - Apple Watch app for glanceable Recovery and Strain on your wrist. - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with your Recovery ring and Strain. - A refreshed, more three-dimensional and animated interface. - A free intro offer on premium.

FitContext turns the data your Apple Watch, sports watch and health apps already collect into clear training insights - on your device, under your control. TRAINING ANALYSIS - Heart-rate zones: a personal 5-zone model with per-workout time in zone, computed from your heart rate data - Training load: acute:chronic workload ratio (ACWR), CTL/ATL/TSB fitness-fatigue balance, monotony and strain, computed from your exercise sessions, distance, speed, power and calories - Recovery: a daily overview of resting heart rate, heart-rate variability (HRV), sleep and VO2 max trends to judge training readiness ALL YOUR SOURCES, ONE PICTURE FitContext reads your data from Apple Health, so it works with Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura, Polar, Whoop, Fitbit and any other device or app that syncs to Apple Health. You can also connect intervals.icu with your own API key to pull in workouts and wellness data from Garmin, Polar, Suunto, COROS, Wahoo and more. When several sources write the same data, you choose which one wins per category. YOUR DATA, YOUR COACH Generate a structured training report and share it with whoever you trust - your coach, or the AI assistant of your choice (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini). FitContext has no built-in AI service, no account and no developer server: your health data stays on your device and leaves it only when you explicitly share a report. FOOD DIARY WITH AI ESTIMATES Log meals the way that suits you: snap a photo, add a note, search the built-in food database, scan a product barcode or photograph a nutrition label (read on your device). Want calories and macros estimated by AI? Share meals to the AI chat you already use and paste its reply back, or plug in your own OpenRouter API key for direct analysis - or skip AI entirely and log manually. You review every estimate before it lands in your diary. ALSO INCLUDED - Training goals with countdown - Blood-pressure logging - Built-in demo data, so you can explore every feature before connecting Apple Health - Full English and Polish localization FitContext is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any medical condition. For medical advice, consult a healthcare professional.
