Ace Pitcher: Log & Throw Throw harder this off-season. Ace Pitcher builds you a lifting and throwing program around your velocity goal, tracks every session, and protects your arm while you do it. YOUR VELOCITY PROGRAM Set a velocity goal and Ace Pitcher builds the program to reach it. Throw days, lift days, plyo work, and recovery, all sequenced to your season, your equipment, and where your arm is right now. Nothing generic. A plan built to move your number. LIFT, THROW, RECOVER Full video libraries for strength work, plyo balls, band care, and mobility. Every session in your program pulls from them, so you always know what to do and why it builds velocity. Guided timers walk you through each routine. ARM READINESS Every day opens with your readiness score, built from recent workload, how the arm feels, days since your last outing, and Apple Health data. It tells you when to push and when to back off, so you gain velo without breaking down. LOG EVERY THROW Bullpens, games, catch play, lifts, or a single velo reading. Logging takes seconds and feeds your readiness score, your weekly pitch count, and your velocity trend. Watch the gain build week over week in Progress. PITCH DATA, IMPORTED Scan a Rapsodo or TrackMan screen with your camera, upload a screenshot, or import a CSV. Ace Pitcher pulls in velocity, movement, spin, and release data and tracks it over time alongside everything else you log. GRIPS AND PITCH CALLING A full pitch guide with real grip photos and movement profiles by age level. Build your arsenal, then get a recommended pitch for any count, batter, and base situation, with the reasoning behind every call. AFTER THE OUTING Get a breakdown after every game and a weekly summary of your velocity, workload, and trends. BUILT FOR PITCHERS AT ANY LEVEL Youth, high school, college, and anyone getting back after time off. Whether you're building velo in the off-season, holding it in-season, or coming back from rest, the program adjusts to the phase you're in. PRO MEMBERSHIP Everything is included: Personalized velocity program with full video libraries Arm readiness score with a full breakdown Bullpen, game, catch play, and lift logging Velocity trends and pitch analytics Rapsodo and TrackMan import by scan, screenshot, or file Pitch guide, arsenal tracking, and count-by-count pitch calling Apple Health sync Post-outing breakdowns and weekly digest SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION Monthly: $19.99 per month Annual: $99.99 per year, includes a 7-day free trial Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.

VELOREACT
Calculate the equivalent pitching velocity based on distance to the hitter. This tool helps visualize how shortening the distance impacts reaction time, allowing for effective training without needing extreme pitch speeds. It provides instant calculations and printable charts for easy reference.
- Calculate equivalent pitching velocity
- Visualize reaction time reduction
- Adjustable release marker
- Printable speed-by-distance charts
- Work backwards to find machine settings
- Intuitive breakdown of reaction window benefits

How fast does a 70 mph pitch feel from 42 feet away? Try 101 mph. We're not just guessing: VELOREACT does the math and shows you the proof. You already know that you can move a pitching machine to shorten a hitter's reaction window, VELOREACT tells you exactly how short a window becomes. Enter a pitching speed and distance from the hitter, and you get the reaction-time equivalent: the velocity a pitch would need from the regulation 60'6" mound to arrive in the same time. You do not need a pitcher who throws 100 mph to train against 100 mph. ONE SCREEN, ONE ANSWER Set the speed. Drag the release marker anywhere from the rubber at 60'6" in to 10 feet. The equivalent velocity, the flight time, and the pressure band move as you drag. Nothing scrolls. Nothing to configure. RACE IT Your pitch, and its equivalent twin, launch from different distances and land at the same instant. This is the fastest way to show a player what equivalence means without giving a lecture. WORK BACKWARDS Name the speed you want to train against and the app solves the setup. "My machine throws 70 and I want it to feel like 95". Answer: set it at 44.6 feet. Fixed distance instead? It gives you the machine speed. A CHART FOR THE CLIPBOARD The app gives you the full speed-by-distance grid, with pinned headers and every cell tappable. See graphs for equivalent velocity and reaction time. Finally, get a landscape PDF built to print" 20 to 90 mph against 20 feet to the rubber, with alternate rows shaded so you can track one speed straight across the page. INTUITIVE BREAKDOWN The app answers why training the reaction window beats chasing radar-gun numbers. The hitter's decision chain, which shows that ball-flight time, is not decision time. We put 409 milliseconds in terms anyone gets: less than half a second, about a blink. EASY TO USE No account. No sign-up. Nothing to connect and nothing to collect: no analytics, no ads, no tracking, no identifiers. Your settings stay on your device. No pitch log, no history, no database: VELOREACT is a calculator, not a record keeper. THE PART THAT MATTERS MOST Shortening the pitching distance shortens everyone's reaction time, not just the hitter's. Be sure to use a protective screen; keep an adult running every session; match the distance to the hitter in front of you; and back up the moment they cannot track the ball. The app only knows a speed and a distance, not your machine, your field, or who else is standing nearby. HOW THE MATH WORKS Flight time is distance divided by speed, in a straight line, with constant velocity. It ignores drag, movement, extension and biomechanics, and the fact that a real baseball loses roughly ten percent of its speed on the way to the plate. Treat the equivalent as a training comparison, not a measurement of how fast the ball is going, and never as a medical or injury-risk assessment. The Learn tab explains all of it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VELOREACT at none against Ace Pitcher's 3. VELOREACT also leads on ads (none vs shown). Ace Pitcher's advantage is ratings volume (148 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ace Pitcher sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. VELOREACT asks for nothing beyond the download.
VELOREACT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ace Pitcher has 148 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
