RIDECOACHA coach in your ear,
eyes on the road.
RideCoach turns any route into spoken coaching through your bone-conduction headphones: climbs called before they bite, pacing against your own riding, nutrition nudges, and a chatty race-engineer commentary. Race a friend's ghost, or your own best day. Phone locked, in your pocket, fully offline.
What it does
Terrain, called ahead
Every route is analysed on the phone: climbs, crests and descents are announced before they arrive, with gear advice for the gradient.
Any route, no computer
Export a GPX from Strava, Komoot or Ride with GPS and share it to RideCoach. Ridden files pace from your actual ride; planned routes get a gradient-based estimate.
Race-engineer chatter
A coach that reacts to the road (descents banked, punchy rises, steady tempo, a ghost rider to race) with a chattiness dial from silent all the way up to Hype: a cheer every five kilometres, encouragement all the way up every climb, and a countdown to the finish.
Race a friend's ghost
Share a finished ride and a friend can race your pace on the same route, and the coach calls the gaps by name: "Dave's 300 metres up the road." A ghost carries pace only, never a map or a location. Your own past rides, and old Garmin files, race the same way.
Heart rate, spoken
Connects to any Bluetooth strap. Zone readouts in the periodic reports, restrained effort cues, and a nice-recovery pat on the back.
A glance, not a screen
During a ride the Lock Screen shows distance, the next climb, how you're doing against the plan and your heart rate, so a stop at the lights doesn't mean unlocking anything.
Detours, handled
Roadworks diversion? One acknowledgment, reminders keep coming, and when you rejoin: how far is left and what the detour cost, then the plan carries on as if it never happened.
Every ride remembered
Stats, the coach's highlights and the post-ride analysis are saved for every ride, with the route's profile showing how far you got and how long you spent in each heart-rate zone.
Readable at arm's length
Text follows your iPhone's Text Size setting, so the screen you glance at mid-ride is as large as you need it.
Offline by design
Coaching, route matching and pacing run entirely on the phone. Dead zones change nothing.
Optional AI polish
Bring your own API keys and the whole ride (cues, closing summary and debrief) can be spoken in a natural premium voice, with commentary reworded in a personality you choose. Tell the coach what you're riding and it might mention that too. The ride never depends on any of it.
