Manifesto

We tried hundreds of workout tracker apps.

None of them fit our needs perfectly.

So we decided to build our own.

Introducing... Hyperlog

Hyperlog is a super simple, yet super powerful workout tracker.

Our goal is make your progress go hyperbolic.

But there are already so many other workout trackers

Yes, and a lot of them are really good.

• There's one popular app we love because it has a bunch of programs available. There's a fantastic feeling of community here, like you're on a journey with others following the same program. And they can generate warmup sets for you.
• Another popular app has a ton of information at a glance during your workout — your previous session's set, the target you should hit, the set's RPE, etc. Great utility here.
• We love how some apps have an algorithm decide the user's workouts, and adjusts things according to user feedback. Our programs should adjust to us, not the other way around.

We could go on.

For many people, one of the above apps is perfect for them.

If Hyperlog isn't for you, we're more than happy to point you to their direction.

None of those other apps are perfect for us. Here's why.

• You need to pay every month to see the analytics (so you can make sense of all the data you've painstakingly entered). Every month. Forever.

  You're trapped. Keep paying them, because if you stop, all the money you've already spent is wasted.

  Sometimes life happens, and you need to take a break. But before you can continue your progress, you gotta start paying them again.

  If you don't pay, you basically have all the complicated work of navigating a clunky app, and barely getting any more utility than just a notepad.

  No one wants to pay for something forever.

• The analytics aren't good enough. It's great to see the weights we use go up, or the volume of an exercise change.

  But we want more.

  We want to see how many sets we're hitting for each muscle group, so we know we're hitting that muscle's Minimum Effective Volume, so we're efficiently growing that muscle.

  We want to see the volume we're performing by muscle group. And by exercise. And see it over time.

  We want true insights into our data, so we can make better decisions and see how far we've come.

  It's all about the data.

• There's no reason I need an internet connection, or to make an account, in order to use the app. It slows down the experience too much.

• We want it to work with Apple Fitness. We have Apple Fitness competitions we need to win! We also want it to work with Apple Health.
• These apps look like they were designed and built a decade ago! Where's the delight? Where's the elegant user experience we've come to expect from modern apps? A swipe from the left edge should go back. Swipe down dismisses modals.

Hyperlog is our solution.

Hyperlog is founded to incorporate only the best parts of what's out there.

Structured Simplicity

The app should be so simple that you already know how to use Hyperlog.

• You want to just quickly start a workout. Oh, the button is right there.

• I want to add my favourite exercise to this workout. Yep, there it is.

Everything should be intuitive. Miniscule learning curve, if any.

If there's an unnecessary button or step, we remove it.

World-Class Design and Experience

The latest in user interface and user experience research. The latest & greatest technologies.

Not just for the fun of it — but to deliver the best experience.

We use Hyperlog every day. We want it to look and feel as good as possible.

Powerful and Insightful

The graphs aren't just pretty. They aren't just to look at.

They're meant to deliver actual insight for you to make decisions on your workouts.

They're there to help you understand exactly how far you've come along in your journey. And where you're going.

But, they are pretty and good to look at, too.

Frequently Asked Questions

So, how do you make money?

Good question. We understand why the other apps monetize the way they do -- getting monthly recurring revenue is stable. It compounds. You have reliable money coming in, without the need to constantly bring in new customers.

But people are sick of paying for subscriptions. And we don't blame them.

We offer completely optional, premium features at a one-time cost. These premium features include:

• AI ✨: let a superintelligent AI analyze your training data and receive Data Scientist-level insights.
• Backup your data and sync your data across multiple devices 🔄: You can do this manually, or you could let us handle it gracefully and securely.
• Desktop web application 🖥: visualize your data on the big screen, and input your data at breathtaking speeds.
• Themes 🎨: We love the way Hyperlog looks. But maybe some people would prefer it a bit brighter. Or cuter. Or retro. Or rustic. Whatever your flavour is. Make Hyperlog yours.
• Convenience utilities 🧰: Skip the math and let us calculate what plates you need on each side. Put the spreadsheet down and let us decide your warmup sets. You could find something online to do these things, or you could do it all here.
• Prioritization in feature requests and support 🥇: Have an idea that could make Hyperlog perfect for you? We're get on it as soon as we can.
