PaceAdapt generates a running plan one week at a time from the athlete's intervals.icu training history, goal and a short weekly check-in on how the week went, sleep and how the legs feel. Missed or extra sessions change the following week. Plans are written to the intervals.icu calendar and reach Garmin and COROS watches from there; Polar is supported for analysis only, and Strava is not supported. The AI Coach tier adds a chat coach that answers questions and can regenerate the week. Sessions currently use open pace bands; structured heart-rate and pace workouts are listed as coming soon. Apps for iOS and Android. Pricing is a monthly subscription in three tiers with a 14-day free trial. Operated by an individual in Ireland.
AI level: Conversational AI coach. An LLM-based coach the athlete talks to in free text; it can explain, negotiate and change the plan, usually on top of a model-driven or rule-based planner. paceadapt.com
