RUNVI - the insole fitness tracker

Running smarter thanks to this insole fitness tracker...

Berlin-based startup RUNVI wants to deliver a personalised running coach to everyone with their smart insoles. Just put the insole into your running shoes, preferably with the 8 hour battery attached, and the integrated sensors combine with training science to deliver you a ‘complete and personalised training experience’. Those with little running experience might not think there is much to the activity, besides putting one foot in front of the other faster than usual, but...well, there is. The RUNVI sensors take note of cadence, foot-strike pattern and symmetry, posture, gait analysis, and more. By taking all of these things into account, RUNVI can tell when you are at risk of injuring yourself, and the real-time visual and audio coaching will let you know what’s wrong.
This coaching can not only improve your running style and performance, but RUNVI measures your power as a performance metric. Running well is about running smarter, and by learning how to properly utilise your power, you will be able to run better, further, and faster.
RUNVI is currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter, where they have already raised over €85,000 or their €50,000 goal, with over a week remaining at the time of writing. With accessible, personalised coaching that can improve performance and decrease the risk of injury, we think this startup will be a runaway success!
