The people behind the numbers
We are three school friends from Switzerland. We build the analysis, the models and this website ourselves: that is the whole company. Building something that did not exist before is a lot of fun, and we are glad you are part of it.

I am the sports scientist on the team, and a racer myself. I built the data collection our models rest on, and developed most of what looks like physiology in the report: the CP-based zone system, the substrate model, the thresholds behind the training focus, and the reference values every report is scored against.
- Gian: Sports Science · Physiological Models. I am the sports scientist on the team, and a racer myself. I built the data collection our models rest on, and developed most of what looks like physiology in the report: the CP-based zone system, the substrate model, the thresholds behind the training focus, and the reference values every report is scored against.
- Nino Schuler: Founder · Product & Engineering. I am the technical one of the three. I built the platform: the FIT parser, the analysis pipeline, the report generator and this website. And when something does not work, I sit down with it and keep at it until it does.
- Mathis Zehnder: Videography · Motion. I am the videographer and the creative one on the team. Everything that moves on this site is mine: the pass footage, the films in How It Works, the report animations. My job is to make the product look as good as it is.
Grounded in the research
Everything in the report has a source. Our models rest on peer-reviewed research, and the references are laid out on the science page. Every value says how it came about: measured, modelled, estimated or assumed.
Where a value is modelled, we also say that it is not a lab measurement, and where our models reach their limits, that is on the science page too. Transparency is not a marketing word for us. It is what makes the numbers worth trusting.

Questions about a report, about team packages, or something we got wrong? The same address reaches all of us, and one of the people on this page answers. Usually within a day.
Why we built this
The short version: knowing where you stand should not cost enough to stop you finding out twice.
