January Updates

Ho-ho-ho πŸŽ…πŸ»πŸŽ„ Unwrap the gift of new integrations with our API this holiday season! Santa came bearing gifts this year, and he's been lifting πŸ’ͺ (we have his data and can verify it, he uses Terra)

tl, dr:

  • New integrations added to platform: FinalSurge, Hammerhead, Komoot, TrainerRoad, XOSS, Xert, BrytonSport, Today's Plan, and Wger.
  • Send structured workout plans to various fitness providers via the API. Plans can be tailored towards cardio or weight training.
  • Calculate adjusted maximum speed for workouts. Provided for advanced analytics using statistical models used to filter out erroneous spikes in speed data for more accurate representation of maximum speed during a workout.

Exciting integration news! πŸŽ‰ πŸ€“

What?

We're excited to announce that we've added a bunch of new integrations to our platform! πŸ”Œ We've added FinalSurge, Hammerhead, Komoot, TrainerRoad, XOSS, Xert, BrytonSport, Today's Plan, and Wger to our list of integrations. These new additions cover a wide range of activities and will provide our users with even more options for tracking and analyzing their workouts and progress. πŸ’ͺ

How?

We worked closely with these companies to integrate their APIs and build the necessary infrastructure to support these integrations. 🀝 We're always looking for ways to expand our offerings and provide our users with the best possible experience, so stay tuned for more updates and integrations in the future. πŸ”œ

Why?

Our goal is to provide a diverse range of integrations that cater to the needs of all end users. 🌈 These new integrations allow us to further expand our reach and offer more options for tracking and analyzing workouts across a variety of activities. Whether you're a runner, cyclist, or gym-goer, there's something for everyone in this batch of integrations. πŸƒ β€β™‚οΈπŸš΄ β€β™€οΈπŸ‹ ️‍♂️"

Planned workouts for your users! πŸ’ͺπŸŽ‰

What?

We're excited to announce a new feature on our platform: the ability to send structured workout plans to various fitness providers via our API. πŸ’» These plans can be tailored towards cardio or weight training, giving users the option to choose the type of workout that best fits their goals. Whether you're looking to improve your endurance or build strength, we have a plan for you. πŸ’ͺ

How?

In order to provide this service, we had to find a universally accepted structure that could be adapted to work with a variety of fitness providers. This required some research and experimentation to ensure compatibility with multiple platforms. In addition, we optimized our API's ability to accept data from developers to ensure a smooth integration process. πŸ”Œ

Why?

We've received numerous requests from developers for the ability to access sending workout plans to users, particularly on Garmin. As a company, our goal is to provide as many resources as possible to help apps using us help their users reach their fitness goals. We are always looking for ways to improve and expand our offerings, and this new feature is just one way we are working towards that goal. πŸ‹ ️‍♂️

If you're a fitness enthusiast looking for a platform that offers writing planned workouts via an API, look no further. Our platform has you covered. πŸ’ͺπŸ”

Adjusted maximum speed calculation for our API users! πŸƒ ‍♂️

What?

We are excited to announce a new addition to our API: the ability to calculate adjusted maximum speed for workouts. This new field, "adjusted_max_speed_meters_per_second", is part of our ongoing efforts to provide advanced analytics and extract more value from the raw data we already provide.

Why?

Some users have noticed strange, inexplicable spikes in speed recorded by their smart watches during workouts. These spikes were likely caused by GPS sensor errors. To fix this issue, we developed statistical models to filter out these artifacts and make the data more accurate. We also wanted to offer developers an easy way to access this additional, processed information.

How?

To calculate adjusted maximum speed, we used statistical models to filter out the erroneous spikes in speed data. This allows us to give a more accurate representation of a user's maximum speed during a workout.

Ready to supercharge your fitness app with advanced analytics? πŸ’ͺ Don't miss out on this valuable way to get even more value from your data. πŸ‹ ️‍♂️
