The brief
Huckson coaches endurance athletes. They wanted their coaches' plans to reach each athlete in an app that fits around real life: a missed session, a bad night's sleep, a race moved by a week.
Safety mattered as much as convenience. Whatever the app suggests to an athlete has to stay inside limits a coach would sign off.
What we built
- Training plans written by human coaches, with a plan library to filter by sport, distance, weekly hours and coach
- Fixed safety rules, written in code, that every suggestion has to pass before an athlete sees it
- Sessions athletes can move, swap and log, with a daily check-in and training load
- A breakdown of every session afterwards: route map, pace, heart rate and power zones, splits and personal records
- Data from Garmin, Oura, WHOOP and Apple Health, with Strava sign-in
- Race tracking with course profiles
- A community feed with reporting and blocking
- Push notifications on iPhone and the web, with mute and quiet hours
- A workbench for coaches to build and manage plans
How it turned out
TeamMate is live on the web, and the iPhone app is in beta through TestFlight. It is one app, built once and wrapped for iOS, so both versions get every change at the same time.
Behind it are hundreds of automated tests, run on every change, so new features don't break the ones athletes rely on.
This is business systems work. See everything we do.
