THE FRICTIONLESS LOGGER FOR THE DEDICATED ATHLETE Gym Analyst is built for one purpose: to capture your training data instantly and analyze it deeply. No social feed. No ads. No AI coaching. Just a precision tool for tracking Strength, Hyrox, CrossFit, and Cardio in one place. ZERO FRICTION ENTRY Designed for sweaty hands and high heart rates. • Voice AI: Speak your sets and let the app parse the reps, weight, and structure instantly. • Vision AI: Snap a photo of the whiteboard or your notebook. We digitize messy text into structured data. • Microwave Time Input: Prefer typing? Type time like a microwave (2-0-0 equals 2:00). No scrolling wheels. • Smart Masking: Inputs auto-format for Kg/Lbs so you never break rhythm. THE HYBRID GAP: SOLVED Standard apps break when you try to log a Sled Push or a complex workout. They force you to choose between Strength (Kg) or Cardio (Distance). Gym Analyst uses Hybrid Logic: • Unified Volume: Track Squats (Kg), Running (Time), and Sled Pushes (Load × Distance × Time) seamlessly. • Smart Recipes: Log complex sessions like Murph or a full Hyrox race as a single block. The app auto-calculates the volume of the components and adds it to your analytics. YOUR DATA. YOURS. We are a tool provider, not a data broker. • Data Sovereignty: Export your entire history to CSV with one tap. You own your logs forever. • Privacy Focused: No tracking pixels. No selling data. Delete your account completely from the app settings anytime. • Lifetime Analytics: See your 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year volume trends, consistency heatmaps, and automatic PR detection. THE PROMISE One fair price. One robust tool. Start your 30-Day Free Trial today and build a dataset you can rely on for years.

Bram is a simple workout and strength tracker built to help you get stronger without tracking harder. Write your workouts like you would in a notes app. Bram turns natural gym notes into structured sets, reps, weight, PRs, volume, training history, and weekly training insights — so you can see what is actually improving and know what to beat next. BUILT FOR LIFTERS WHO KNOW HOW THEY TRAIN Bram is built for lifters who already have a routine, program, or training style — and just want a better way to remember what they did, what improved, and what to beat next time. It works especially well if you currently track workouts in a notes app, notebook, spreadsheet, or gym app that feels heavier than it needs to be. WHY BRAM No spreadsheet. No dropdown maze. No social feed. No complicated routine setup before you can train. Just a calmer way to get stronger and track progress. WHAT BRAM TRACKS • Natural workout notes • Sets, reps, weight, and PRs • Weekly workout progress • Training history by day • Volume across muscle groups • Streaks and weekly targets • Apple Health context • Strength progress over time • Training insights without managing a giant fitness app NOTES-STYLE LOGGING. REAL WORKOUT TRACKING. Notes are fast, but they do not track PRs, volume, progress, or training history. Traditional workout apps can track more, but often make logging feel slower than training. Bram gives you the speed of notes with the structure of a real workout tracker. BUILT FOR MORE THAN BARBELLS Use Bram for lifting, accessories, bodyweight work, calisthenics, conditioning, or any workout you want to remember. WRITE YOUR WORKOUT. BRAM TRACKS THE REST. Start with your next workout and keep your training history in one place. SUBSCRIPTION Bram requires an auto-renewable subscription after a 3-day free trial.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Gym Analyst at none against Bram's shown. Gym Analyst also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Bram's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
