VeloGrit is a web app for cyclists that reads training and recovery data from intervals.icu and builds a weekly plan toward the athlete's next goal, which can be a race from a GPX file, a manual entry or an imported race calendar, including Zwift Racing League and DIRT series rounds. Plans run in race-specific build, taper and race-week phases. A daily check-in plus HRV, sleep and resting heart rate decide whether a session goes ahead, is eased or is dropped; marking a day unavailable redistributes sessions. A chat coach based on a language model answers questions and can change the plan. Planned sessions are written to the intervals.icu calendar for Zwift, Garmin and Wahoo. Pricing is €2.95 per month or €29.95 per year after a 5-day trial; 5% of the first payment period is donated to intervals.icu.
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. velogrit.cc
