Cadence — Adaptive running coach

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to smarter miles.

STEP 1

Set your goal

Tell Cadence your race, distance, or just that you want to build a habit. It writes the whole training block.

STEP 2

Check in each morning

Log sleep and how you feel — or sync Apple Health. Cadence reads your recovery before you lace up.

STEP 3

Run the adapted plan

Today's session flexes to match your readiness and the weather. Head out and just run it.

FEATURES

Coaching that reacts to real life.

ADAPTIVE PLAN

A plan that rewrites itself daily.

Every session is built for the shape you're in today. When recovery dips or the heat climbs, Cadence trims the effort and tells you exactly why — one tap to apply the easier version.

Recovery-aware daily adjustments
Weather-adapted target distance & pace
Full training blocks, not one-off workouts

RECOVERY CHECK-IN

Your body sets the pace.

A 20-second morning check-in — sleep, energy, body feel, stress — becomes a single readiness score. Sync Apple Health and it fills itself in. Cadence turns that signal into today's session.

FAQ

Good questions.

How does Cadence adapt my plan?

Each morning you check in — or Cadence reads Apple Health — to gauge sleep, recovery, and body feel. It combines that readiness score with the weather to reshape today's session, then explains the change in plain language.

Do I need a watch or extra gear?

No. Your iPhone is enough to track runs and check in. If you use Apple Health or a connected watch, Cadence uses that data to fill in recovery automatically.

Is it for beginners or serious runners?

Both. Whether you're building your first habit or chasing a 5K PR against an Olympian's ghost, Cadence scales the plan to your level and goal.

How does the free trial work?

The annual plan starts with a 3-day free trial. You won't be charged until it ends, and you can cancel anytime from the App Store before then.

Can I race friends who don't have Cadence?

Invite them with a share link and race their ghost once they've logged a run. No invite? Race a built-in pace setter or chase your own personal record.

Take your running to the next level.
