Alendis shows you how your horse is really moving, from a single video filmed on your phone. Record a session in the app or upload a video you already have. Alendis AI tracks every joint, stride and beat, with no markers and no special camera, and turns it into readings you can understand and act on. PERFORMANCE A plain-language summary of the ride: limb loading, head, hips and flexibility, each with a clear in-range or worth-watching reading, plus where your horse carries its center of mass. HEALTH Go deeper with the movement score, movement loop, stride characteristics, limb load, protraction and retraction, joint angles and trunk movement, measured stride by stride. EVERY GAIT Analysis works across walk, trot, tolt, pace, canter and gallop. ASK ALENDIS AI Ask about any chart and get answers based on your horse's own numbers. FOLLOW EACH HORSE OVER TIME Create a profile for each horse, keep every analysis in one place and see how each reading changes from session to session.
