PUSHUP uses real-time AI pose detection to count your reps, analyze your form, and track your progress — no wearable required. Just prop your phone on the ground, get into position, and start your mission. HOW IT WORKS Your phone's camera feeds into TensorFlow.js MoveNet, a pose-detection model that runs entirely on your device. It watches your movement, counts each rep, and gives you live feedback on depth, elbow angle, and body alignment. Nothing is recorded. Nothing leaves your phone. PICK YOUR MISSION Choose from six built-in daily targets — from Recruit (25 reps) to Vanguard (1,000) — or set a custom goal. Your target drives the progress bar and calendar heatmap so you can see exactly where you stand. TRACK EVERY SESSION A GitHub-style activity calendar shows your daily volume at a glance. See your current streak, peak day, average reps per day, and total sessions. Clear trends. No clutter. REAL-TIME FORM ANALYTICS PUSHUP doesn't just count — it coaches. Live readouts show your elbow angle, body alignment, rep depth, and movement phase so you can correct bad habits before they stick. BUILT FOR PRIVACY No account. No sign-up. No cloud sync. All pose detection runs on-device with TensorFlow.js. Your camera is used solely for tracking and is never recorded. Session data is stored locally and can be purged at any time. FEATURES • AI-powered rep counting via live camera pose detection • Real-time form feedback: depth, elbow angle, alignment • Six preset daily targets plus custom goals • Calendar heatmap with streak and volume stats • Manual +/− correction buttons for miscounts • Front or rear camera support • Onboarding tutorial with setup tips • Fully offline — no internet required after install • One-tap data purge for complete privacy Just you, the floor, and your phone.
