FormLab

Alpha Free while we build it in the open.

Coaching with eyes on every rep, evidence in every session.

FormLab is real coaching, not template PDFs. Trainees submit the form videos they record. Coaches review them and leave specific cues: the rep, the joint, the second.

A form video with coach cues pinned along its timeline An isometric video frame. Below it a timeline strip carries four sage cue marks and one terracotta playhead, showing feedback anchored to exact moments. A hinge with one joint marked A figure mid-hinge drawn in line, with the right knee circled in terracotta: the specific thing a coach noticed, rather than a general comment about form.

How it works

Three steps, and the third is the point.

Nothing here is automated. A person watches your set and tells you what they saw.

1. Film the set

One clip, from your phone, in the gym. No signal needed. If there are no bars it waits on the device and goes out later.

2. Your coach watches it

They scrub to the moment that matters and write what they saw there, pinned to that second of the video.

3. You see the frame they meant

Tap the cue and the video jumps to it. Not "watch your form". The rep, the joint, the second.

For coaches

Coach the way you actually want to coach.

Review form videos, leave cues that name the exact thing, and keep evidence on every session, without ghosting your roster or shipping template plans.

How it works for coaches

A coach working through a stack of form videos Several video cards receding into depth. The nearest is open and being reviewed; the ones behind it carry sage marks showing they are done.
A phone showing today's single session A phone at an angle. The screen shows one session card as the largest thing on it, with set rows beneath, and one terracotta action.

For trainees

Get coaching that watches.

Record your form, submit it, and get specific cues back. Opening the app answers one question: what is mine to do right now.

How it works for trainees

Evidence

Nothing gets overwritten.

Every session, cue and logged set is kept as an event rather than replaced. What was prescribed, what was done, and what was said stay on the record, so progress is something you can look back at rather than take on trust.

Sessions accumulating as an append-only record Layered session cards receding into depth, each one kept rather than replaced, showing that the history of what was prescribed and done is never overwritten.
A recorded clip held safely on the device A phone with a video clip held inside it and a sage mark, with a broken connection line above, showing that work recorded without signal is kept and sent later.

In the gym

A basement with no bars does not lose the take.

Sets, notes and the videos themselves are held on the phone and sent when signal returns. The one failure worth engineering against is losing work you already did.

Plainly

What FormLab is not.

  • Not a marketplace. No directory, no ratings, no race to the bottom on price.
  • Not a tracker. It does not replace a wearable.
  • Not template programming. It does not sell PDF plans.
  • Not gamified. No streaks, no badges, no "level up".
  • Not an AI form checker. The cues come from your coach, not a model.

FormLab is also not Formlabs, the 3D-printing company at formlabs.com, and not the disc-golf coaching app at formlabapp.com. Same name, no relationship. This FormLab is only ever joinformlab.com.

What it costs

Free, while it is in alpha.

There are no paid tiers yet and no price list to show you. FormLab is being built in the open, things may break, and data can reset without notice. When pricing exists it will be on this page before it is anywhere else.
