Ranked IRL — the only fitness rank you can't fake. Camera, watch and body scan verify every number: 9 sports+ scored 0-100, then ranked against real population norms for your age, sex and bodyweight. Every other fitness app believes whatever you type. This one watches. The camera counts your reps on your phone — only the full ones count — and scores your form against the movement you're actually doing. Nothing is recorded. Nothing is uploaded. YOUR CHARACTER, BUILT FROM MEASUREMENTS Four attributes, and every one has an instrument behind it. Strength from camera-counted reps and logged load. Technique from form scored 0-100 against real checkpoints. Endurance from GPS runs, heart rate and the round clock. Vitality from your sleep, your HRV and your body composition. You rank on what was measured, not what you claimed. WHEN IT CAN'T SEE, IT SAYS SO Every screen lists what it cannot measure, before you record. If the tracking was too weak, you get no score and the reason why — never a number we invented. That is the whole product. ONLINE CHALLENGES Challenge a friend, or anyone on the leaderboard, to a 60-second push-up or sit-up contest. Both sides confirm, both run the same camera-counted set, and the selfies sit side by side on the result card. Reps at full range decide. Your rank and level travel with your handle. THE CAMERA IS THE COACH - Rep counting and form scoring on every tracked movement - Body scan: front and side, for a body-fat estimate shown with its error band - Ghost overlay: race your own best set, replayed as a skeleton - Bar-load scan: point at the bar, it reads the plates - Replay export with the skeleton burned in SPORTS, SCORED 0-100 Golf, tennis, baseball, volleyball, basketball, running, boxing, MMA and wrestling. Each one tells you the camera angle it needs and what it cannot see, before you record. Standard includes one sport. Pro includes all nine. FUEL THAT ISN'T GUESSWORK Photograph a meal for macros, read a nutrition label on device, scan a barcode, or just say what you ate. Wearing a glucose sensor? It will tell you what your body actually did with it. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY WEAR Apple Watch, and anything that writes to Apple Health — WHOOP, Oura, Ultrahuman, Garmin, Galaxy Ring, and CGM patches like Stelo, Lingo and Libre. PRICING, IN PLAIN TERMS Free for good: your plan, the daily mission, 3 camera-verified sets a day, online challenges, barcode, label and manual food logging, the board and a weekly Results card. No trial, no card on file. Standard $7.99/month or $69.99/year: every set counted, a daily Results card, photo meal scans, coach chat, the AI dietitian, voice logging, and one sport. Pro $14.99/month or $99.99/year: all nine sports, form review and clip review from Photos, combat rounds, clean replay export. Cancel in two taps. No feature ever moves behind a new paywall.
