OtterWatts connects to your Strava account and provides AI-powered analysis of your workouts, including activity classification, power analysis, heart rate zones, and long-term fitness trends.
Strava is the primary data source. You can also upload FIT files (from Garmin and other devices), GPX files, and TCX files directly. This means you can use OtterWatts even without a Strava account.
We store activity metrics (distance, time, speed, heart rate, power, route polylines) in a secure database. Activity data is sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) only when generating summaries or chat responses. No data is sold to third parties.
TRIMP (Training Impulse) is a measure of training load that uses your heart rate data to weight harder sessions more heavily. A 30-minute threshold run scores much higher than a 30-minute easy jog. It works across all activity types — running, cycling, swimming.
For runs near standard race distances (5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, 50K, 100K), we compare your time against all your previous efforts at that distance. P100 means it's your fastest, P0 means it's your slowest. Only running activities count — rides are never matched as races.
The graphs show weekly trends for distance, training load (TRIMP), and average power. Each activity type (Run, Ride, Walk, Swim, etc.) is shown as a separate coloured line so you can track progress per sport.
The chat assistant has access to your actual activity data — totals, averages, recent activities, and running PBs. It can answer specific questions about your training. It won't provide medical advice.
