Striv - Meet Your Personal Running Coach

Running gadgets multiply but data stays shallow: watches track heart rate and pace, while form, force and injury risk remain guesswork — and biomechanics labs cost a fortune per session. Striv puts the lab in your shoe: 256 textile pressure sensors plus a 9-axis motion sensor and barometer map foot pressure in real time. The AI coach reads form, power output and gait cycles mid-run, flags early injury signals, and adapts training plans after every session. At 35g with two-week battery life, it syncs with Garmin, Strava and Apple Watch — and has been tested by Olympians. Launched in October 2024, the project drew 1,210 backers and raised $318,347 against a $21,790 goal — about 1,461% funded.
