Make every hour you can train count.
Routa builds your week around your life, tells you each morning how hard to go, and runs the workout on your trainer or power meter. Grounded in sports science, simple enough to just follow. Free.
Four things, every day you ride.
Plan, readiness, the ride itself, and your progress. Free, and all in one app — or sync to Intervals.icu and ride on the platform you already use. Pro adds four-week planning and finer training controls.
A plan that adapts every day
Tell Routa how much you can train each day and how you feel. It builds your week around real life, and rebuilds when reality shifts: missed session, bad sleep, day that ran long. Pro extends the horizon to four weeks — deload and taper handled — and lets you drop your own rides on the calendar — the plan builds around them.
One call each morning
Open the app, get one call: go hard, dial it back, or rest. With wearables, Routa weighs HRV, resting heart rate, and sleep against accumulated load. No wearable? Log how you feel with one tap. The reasoning is on screen: which signals fired, which thresholds you crossed.
Run the session on your trainer
Pick today's session, pair over Bluetooth, and ride. Routa controls your smart trainer through every interval so you can focus on the effort. On a power meter or a gym bike that broadcasts power, it records power and heart rate while the screen counts you through.
Watch your fitness build
One curve: where you've been, where you are, where the plan is taking you. Workouts from your watch count too — imported from Apple Health and deduplicated automatically.
Your whole block on one screen
Your fitness curve up top, this week and next laid out day by day, a deload already on the calendar, your goal event counting down. Put your Saturday group ride on the calendar and the week is built around it. Miss a Wednesday and the rest of the block redraws.
Press start and just pedal
Open today's workout and ride it. Your smart trainer holds the target in ERG through every interval — switch to freeride to take control. On a power meter or a gym bike, the same screen shows power, heart rate, cadence, and what's coming next.
What would Routa do for you?
Depends how you ride. Four quick picks and the card fills in.
Answer the first three.
Two sentences and a link, tailored to your answers.
Works with what you already have.
Link Intervals.icu, Apple Health, both, or neither. None of it is required — Routa runs on its own. All of it makes the plan smarter.
Intervals.icu
Push your whole plan to your calendar and ride it on Zwift, a Garmin, wherever you like. Your activities and wellness flow back in. Free, no Pro needed.
Apple Health
HRV, resting heart rate and sleep from any wearable feed the morning readiness check. Watch workouts come in, deduplicated; your rides go out.
Your trainer and sensors
Smart trainer over Bluetooth for ERG control. Power meter, gym bike and heart-rate strap also pair. Nothing to buy beyond what you already ride with.
Rules, not AI.
Readiness, today's workout, load progression, mesocycle timing: all of it runs on plain rules from sports science. Same inputs, same output, every time.
When Routa gives you an easy ride instead of intervals, it shows you why: the short sleep, the load you're carrying, the threshold you crossed. You're never left guessing.
Why I built it.
I've trained for years with coaching apps, static plans, spreadsheets. They all break the same way: a meeting moves, a kid gets sick, sleep tanks, and the rigid plan turns into fiction. I wanted something that built the calendar for me, adapted when reality shifted, and handled progression on its own.
The second problem was my wife's. She's not a cyclist — cycling is her cardio, fitted in around everything else she does. She hates new apps. She needed a reason to do cardio and nothing on the market gave her one. So I built something simple enough for her to use, and capable enough that I'd still use it for my own structured blocks.
