You put in the work. LIFTL proves if it's paying off, and where. Anyone can store your sets and reps. LIFTL watches what a good coach watches: how hard you're loading, how well you're recovering, where your strength is heading, and what's quietly falling behind. Then it hands it back to you in plain numbers. Fast to log while you train, deep to dig into when you want answers. Built by a lifter who actually uses it every day. A COACH'S EYE ON YOUR TRAINING • Workload management: Your acute-to-chronic load, the kind of math used in sports science, so you push when you're fresh and ease off before you're running on empty. • Recovery readiness: See which muscles are fresh and which you've been hammering, so your next session lands where it should. • Strength curves: Estimated 1RM tracked week to week, for every lift that matters. • Muscle heatmaps: A full-body picture of where your volume is going. • Balance checks: push/pull/legs and volume-by-muscle make blind spots obvious. • Plus rep-range breakdowns, weekly volume trends, and your full PR history. THE PART NO PHONE-ONLY APP GIVES YOU Your Pro web portal turns months of logs into a real desktop dashboard: strength trends, rep-range analysis, training frequency, and more than ten views of your training most apps never show you. Log on your phone, study it on the big screen. Bring your history over from another app in a couple of clicks, and export everything to CSV whenever you like. Your data stays yours. LOG WITHOUT THE FRICTION • Live set tracking. Tap in sets, reps, and weight as you go, and volume, intensity, and estimated 1RM are worked out for you. • Templates. Build your routines once, load them in seconds. • Quick Start. Skip the template and free-form a session anytime. • Rest timer. Per-exercise rest that auto-starts after each set, with audio cues so you keep your rhythm. • Nearly 500 exercises, across every major muscle group and equipment type, from barbells to bands. • Custom exercises. Don't see your movement? Add it with your own muscle and equipment tags. CELEBRATE EVERY PR Hit a new personal record and LIFTL makes sure you feel it. The work should never go unnoticed, because progress is the whole point. SIMPLE, HONEST PRICING Logging your workouts is free, for as long as you want. When you're ready for the full analytics suite, subscribe to Pro and your first 14 days are free before any billing. After that it's $2.99 a month, and you can cancel anytime. BUILT DIFFERENT No investors to answer to, and no dark patterns. No fake streaks guilting you back in, no bloat you'll never use. Just a tool made by someone who trains on it consistently, shaped around the way lifting actually feels. Your history is your edge. LIFTL helps you use it.

Stillwise is a private, local-first companion for understanding your drinking habits with more calm and less judgment. RECORD AND UNDERSTAND — FREE • Check in honestly with “didn’t drink,” “drank a little,” or “drank a lot.” • Review history, goals, streaks, mood patterns, triggers, and a 30-day calendar. • Open the complete local 28-day review after seven distinct recorded days. It reports associations, sample size, and uncertainty—not cause and effect. • Use the one-minute urge pause, manual prevention plans, custom tags, and professional-help resources. • Export selected data, create an encrypted complete backup, restore a backup, or delete your data. • Check in from the Widget and Apple Watch. ANTICIPATE AND ACT — STILLWISE PLUS Stillwise Plus is a single, one-time purchase. It adds proactive local Today guidance, confirmed risk-window ranking, and device-local reminders. These features stay useful without an API key, remote AI, or a network connection. Remote AI is an optional bring-your-own-key enhancement. It is off by default, never controls safety-critical decisions, and shows a data preview before every request. Requests go directly to the compatible provider and endpoint you configure. PRIVATE BY CHOICE Stillwise has no Stillwise account, hidden analytics, or advertising SDK. Records stay on your device by default. iCloud and remote AI are optional and user controlled. Local reminders are off by default and avoid sensitive lock-screen wording. Stillwise supports habit awareness. It does not diagnose an alcohol-use disorder, replace professional medical care, provide emergency treatment, or promise that AI will reduce drinking.
