The field
Compared honestly.
Every serious logger has strengths. Here is where each one stands on the things that matter — free-tier limits, who holds your data, and whether you ever learn where you actually rank.
Local-first
Your training data never leaves your phone on the free tier.
Free accounts run entirely on on-device storage — no logging caps, no routine caps, no history paywall, and no server round-trips to slow the logger down. Pro adds encrypted multi-device sync when you want it.
Exact entry
The number you type is the number we store.
Log 186.7 and it stays 186.7 — weights are stored as exact fixed-point values in the unit you typed, never rounded to the nearest plate or mangled by unit conversion.
Honest rank
A percentile against people like you, computed on your device.
Cohort-matched by sex, age band, and years trained — not a generic standards chart. The model runs on-device, so your lifts are ranked the moment you log them.
Side by side
The loggers.
