Empace
Read full descriptionHide full description
A running coach that fits the plan to your life โ not your life to the plan. WHAT RUNNERS SAY "Surprised how nice it was to chat with it! Got a few good suggestions for how to train with my injury." โ Robert, ultra marathoner "Knows exactly when to push you and when to hold you back." โ Christian, ultra marathoner "It accounts for injuries, limitations and even other sports when it builds your plan. It makes training both fun and motivating." โ Tobias Static training plans ask you to fit your life around them. Miss a Tuesday and the whole thing feels broken. Empace replaces the plan with a coach: connect Strava, tell it your goal, and it writes your weeks around your schedule, your past injuries, and everything else that makes you you. IT BUILDS THE PLAN AROUND YOU Tell it the goal โ a first marathon, a sub-1:30 half โ and it writes the weeks. When life gets in the way, tell your coach and the plan moves. Nothing is ever marked missed, because a plan that shames you is a plan you quit. IT KNOWS YOUR RUNNING It reads your whole Strava history the moment you connect, and every run after. Ask how today went โ it's already read the numbers. IT REMEMBERS WHAT NO OTHER APP TRACKS Your injury. Your schedule. What you said after last Sunday's long run. Every conversation builds on the last. IT SHOWS YOU WHETHER IT'S WORKING Aerobic efficiency, week by week: the same heart rate, a faster pace. One honest line that says whether you're getting fitter. IT TAKES REST SERIOUSLY Recovery is where adaptation happens. Your coach will tell you to rest, and it will mean it. WHY EMPACE โข A coach that adapts to your life, not a template you adapt to โข Built on your Strava history from run one โข Remembers injuries and goals across conversations โข Tracks aerobic efficiency, training load and recovery โข Honest about rest โ not a "more is better" coach Built by a runner. Tell your coach what you'd change and it reaches me directly. Free to start. Upgrade to Pro Plus for unlimited coaching.

Longevity Arc turns your Apple Health data into five clear longevity signals. Instead of digging through scattered charts, you can see HRV, fitness, sleep, gait, and cardiac load together in one simple dashboard designed to help you understand how your body is trending over time. Built for people who care about healthspan, recovery, and long-term performance, Longevity Arc helps you spot changes faster and focus on the metrics that matter most. The app is designed to feel simple at a glance while still giving you useful depth when you want to explore trends and patterns. What you can do in Longevity Arc: - Track five science-inspired longevity signals from Apple Health in one place. - Review your HRV, sleep, fitness, gait, and cardiac-load trends without jumping between different screens. - Get a clearer picture of how daily habits may affect your long-term trajectory. - Use a private, HealthKit-powered experience built around your own data.

Privacy and data: - Longevity Arc works with your Apple Health data. - You stay focused on your own signals, trends, and progress.
