...powerlifting movements.
The market has seen several mediocre solutions that nobody loves. Unless you can offer something fundamentally different, you’ll likely struggle to stand out or make money.
Don't build it.
Your idea for a physical device to measure movement speed in powerlifting falls into a crowded space. Our analysis shows a "Swamp" category, meaning several similar solutions exist, but none have truly taken off. With 5 similar products already out there, competition is present. Engagement, measured by average comments, is low at 3. This indicates that while there is some interest, it's not overwhelmingly positive. Given this landscape, you need to differentiate significantly to succeed; otherwise, you might struggle to gain traction.

Spleeft the new fitness app. Measure barbell velocity and jump height with your phone and Apple Watch. Velocity Based Training. iOS & Android.
Howdy folks,I've been working on an app to solve some problems I've had as a powerlifter:- trimming videos- estimating RPEs- workout tracking specifically tailored for powerliftingAnd so I built [FortisAI](https://www.fortisai.app/)!It was built with all of the above in mind, and utilizes computer vision to extrapolate velocity from your videos, and give you fine-tuned RPE estimates based on your own velocity numbers.It's still in the early stages, and I have a ton of features I'd like to add. If you're interested in this kind of thing, or want some say on the direction of this app I would love your feedback.It's available for download on both iOS and Android via the link above. I also created a [Discord](https://discord.gg/wSC9FbJgzn) for discussion around the app, so feel free to join if you're interested.Thanks!
