Stopa vs Gradial

Got a training plan from an AI chat or your coach in a spreadsheet? Stop retyping it. Paste it into Stopa, see your full calendar, and sync each workout to your Apple Watch in seconds, or to Garmin, COROS and Suunto through intervals.icu. No plan yet? Build one with the in-app coach - a conversation, not a template library. With your permission it reads your Apple Health history, so the plan starts from the training you have actually done. You review and edit every workout before anything reaches your watch. Built for self-coached runners, cyclists, and triathletes who want their plan on their wrist - not stuck in a PDF. WHAT IT DOES • Paste your plan from any AI chat or upload an Excel • Or create one with the in-app coach, grounded in your Apple Health data • See your full weekly and monthly training calendar • Workouts reach your Apple Watch on their own, via WorkoutKit • Garmin, COROS, Suunto and Wahoo through a connected intervals.icu account • Auto-pairs completed activities back to the plan via HealthKit • Compliance score after every session YOUR TRAINING DIARY Your whole history, not just the plan. Stopa reads your past sessions from Apple Health, so the diary is filled in from day one. Open any session for the full record: route map, splits, heart-rate zones, power - whatever your watch actually recorded. Add a note, or log a session by hand. STORIES Keep a stretch of training together - a weekend in the mountains, a training camp, a whole finished block - with its sessions, your notes and your photos. Share it as a card or a short film. FUELLING AND GUT TRAINING For long sessions and race day: carbohydrate, fluid and sodium per hour, built as a ladder that climbs across the block. Rehearse it in your long runs, tell Stopa how your stomach handled it, and the plan adjusts. Training intake only - no meal plans, no calorie counting, and nothing about body weight. GARMIN, SUUNTO, COROS AND MORE Your plan does not stop at the Apple Watch. Connect an intervals.icu account and it carries on to Garmin, Suunto, COROS, Wahoo and Zwift. Apple Watch stays the direct route. SEVEN LANGUAGES English, Czech, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese - the app, the watch and the widgets. The plan reader speaks them too, so a Czech coach's spreadsheet is read in Czech, not translated first. WHY STOPA Most training apps lock you into an algorithm you cannot see, or charge $99+/year for what amounts to a calendar and watch sync. Stopa takes YOUR plan, in YOUR format, and gets it onto YOUR watch. And when you do want help writing one, the coach shows its work - every workout is yours to edit.

Your training plan, your watch, and every run you have ever done, in one place, with nothing sent to a server. Gradial builds a real training plan from your current fitness and your goal time, paces every session off your own VDOT, and sends the whole thing to your Apple Watch. Then it reads your runs back from Apple Health and shows you, rep by rep, what actually happened. A plan that fits your race 5K to marathon, with the weeks, the phases and the taper worked out from your goal and your starting point rather than a template. Sessions on your wrist Structured intervals sync straight to Apple Watch with pace targets on the work. Completed runs land back in Apple Health. Every rep against target A bar per interval with its target band behind it, so a session you executed and a session you survived do not look the same. The week you actually ran An execution score per session, distance against what was asked for, and where your heart rate went, so you can see whether your easy days stayed easy. Race predictions that do not panic Times are read from the fitness Apple Health measured at the time, so one easy month does not read as lost form. Where the model is running on thin evidence, the app says so instead of showing a confident number. Your fitness, in context VO2max placed against the published norms for your age and sex, training load against what your body is used to, and your best time at every standard distance. Running dynamics, explained Cadence, ground contact, vertical oscillation and vertical ratio, each banded against published percentiles with a plain explanation of what good looks like. Your whole history Every run Apple Health has, mapped, with splits, pace and heart rate. No account. No subscription. No network code at all. Gradial has no sign-in and no server. Your health data is read from Apple Health on your device and never leaves it. Deleting the app deletes everything. Built for runners who want to understand their training, not just log it.
