Imperfect

Imperfect is an adaptive training coach for runners, cyclists and triathletes. Rather than handing over a fixed plan written weeks earlier, it adjusts training each day based on sleep, schedule, health data and how the athlete reports feeling. The app connects to a smartwatch or wearable and to health apps, and works on iOS and Android. Through the day it makes recommendations that fit the athlete's context. Examples shown on the site include moving a run indoors when air quality is low, suggesting a light workout after a cold, and updating the plan when a day is missed so the athlete stays on track for a goal such as a 10K. The coach supports running, cycling, trail running with elevation and fatigue in mind, and swimming with sessions that adjust to technique, endurance and recovery. The vendor lists further disciplines it is expanding into, including bouldering, surfing, padel, snowboarding, jiu jitsu and skyrunning. It is intended for athletes who train around work and family and want plans that tolerate missed sessions and illness. The site invites visitors to download the app free. No subscription prices are published on the site.
