Overview

The world's first fitness tracker that automates comprehensive workout tracking & provides actionable insight. Using machine learning algorithms Actofit goes deeper into advanced motion tracking to identify gym exercises, count reps, evaluate form, measure heart rate, calories burned and more to auto-log comprehensive sessions & granular workout statistics; allowing you to evaluate data to make informed decisions. Still tracks steps, sleep, sports, continuous heart rate & is water resistant.

Using machine learning algorithms, Actofit tracks your motion in 3D to identify your exercise, count your reps, evaluate your form, measure heart rate and calories burned, all automatically without any user disturbance.

When you exercise, your motion is tracked and compared to the database of exercises you record, allowing Actofit to successfully detect your exercise and count the number of reps. Force, Power, Velocity is evaluated on every set and you can see the numbers on your mobile apps along with your exercise log.

Every exercise has a specific motion signature. Actofit analyses that pattern to identify your exercise automatically. Here are some examples of how we identify each exercise.

Actofit tracks activities to the scale and versatility which has never been done before. This allows for the users to compare and evaluate where they are versus where they want to be, what’s working vs. what's not working and make informed data driven decisions.

But don't worry, we still do everything top of the line fitness trackers do!

Built by tech and fitness enthusiasts, Actofit is born out of mere need and a real market gap, with the belief that 10k steps is an inaccurate metric to track fitness since not all exercises involve steps, providing Actofit the competitive edge. Actofit starts where most of the market leader wearables stop. Innovative, versatile and comprehensive.

Logging that happened manually, is now automated with data science & logged in mobile apps.

Every little detail is crunched in ranging from the kind of exercise done to the force, velocity and power during a lift; exercise specific calorie burns to the exercise duration.

With every session data logged; compare and evaluate what's working vs. what's not. See where you are against where you want to be. Use this data to make informed decisions; to take your training to new heights.

Actofit is that unique blend of innovation and versatility, where you can still track steps, sleep, distance, continuous 24 hour heart rate, call/text alerts, calendar notifications apart from your workouts.

Your form is your individual form and may be different than other peoples form. Therefore, we've built an easy to adapt system where our machine learning algorithms adapt to your personal and individual form.

Our product is one of a kind and our journey to make this happen began on June 2014. We've come a long way since then, making tremendous dreams and goals happen. Take a look how!

The final packaging will be more evolved, but this is how our current packaging looks. We're playing around with different graphic options, we'll keep you updated :)

"Being a fitness enthusiast myself, I was amazed by how the engagement with a fitness tracker made one more aware about his fitness. If tracking steps made so much of a difference, the idea of tracking workouts was simply too intriguing to resist. We wanted to make tracking workouts as simple as tracking steps." Pratik Saraogi, Cofounder at Actofit, didn't believe 10k steps, as marketed by the market leader wearables, to be an accurate metric to measure fitness, as not all exercises involve steps.

To make this wonderful idea come to fruition, we are now successfully campaigning on Indiegogo, ready to deliver a new generation GYM fitness tracker that focuses on optimising your workout. Allow us to introduce you the very capable Team which includes members from marquee schools such as Indian Institute of Technology, Purdue, Rochester, CoEP and certified fitness trainers, world class engineers, machine learning experts, algorithm developers, data scientists, programmers, designers, production experts.

So what are you waiting for? Grab the limited period offer and back the team, the product and the dream of a quality wrist-wear that's innovative, versatile and comprehensive and intends to be a pioneer in tracking, analyzing and improving performance in the strength training space! We cannot thank you enough for your pledge, your support.
