The dashboard
that talks back.

Durability, ramp, and your easy corridor — computed from your own watch, on your own machine. With a coach that lives in the AI you already pay for and writes every decision straight back into the screen.

Sep 22 — why is that dot floating above the bar?

Mile-for-mile you were under your normal effort then — you weren't running hard, you were running a lot: 7 runs, 1.29× your recent load. Intensity was innocent; volume was the aggressor.

And it starts the block that ended in your February injury. The tendons got outvoted.

Cooked from Sunday's long run — what are my options?

Real fatigue — 17 weeks without a down week, and yesterday's HR drift agrees. Three ways to play Wednesday:

A — keep the 6×800, cut to 4 reps. Stimulus stays, dose shrinks.

B — easy 6 today, session moves to Friday. My pick.

C — full rest, strides tomorrow to stay loose.

B.

Done — Wednesday easy 6, the 6×800 lands Friday. Week holds 25 mi.

Not a mockup — my actual training, synced this morning. Two apps, one conversation: the coach lives in your AI, the truth lives in Debrief. ↻ replay

No API keys. No AI bill from us. If you can open a chat, you're set up.

WHY THE SCREEN EXISTS

The graphs were paywalled. So I built them.

My watch had the data. The apps had the charts — behind a monthly fee, and the ones that mattered didn't exist at any price. Debrief computes them locally, and nothing you see costs a subscription.

DURABILITY
17weeks

How long you've absorbed load without a down week — the number that predicts breakdown before your legs do.

RAMP
1.13× chronic load
sustainable band

This week against what your body is adapted to, watched inside its band. Progress without the injury cliff.

THE EASY CORRIDOR
< 45stress/hr
42.3easy, truly62.1"easy," allegedly

Every run colored against your corridor — so "easy day" stops being a feeling and starts being a fact.

Stop being the clipboard.

Be honest — you already coach yourself with AI. Screenshot the watch app, paste it into a chat, get genuinely good advice… and then you type it into wherever your plan lives. Great coach. Terrible job for you: data entry.

EVERY WEEK UNTIL NOW screenshot paste re-explain yourself, again good advice retype into your plan lost by Thursday
WITH DEBRIEF CONNECTED ask ✓ already in your plan

Nothing retyped. Nothing re-explained. Every conversation starts with your whole history already in the room. You just run.

MANUAL ENTRY
0fields, ever

Runs sync from the watch. The AI drafts the review. You just argue with it.

YOUR HISTORY
1file, on your disk

SQLite. No account, no server. I don't keep your data — I don't even want it.

PRICE
$0/month, forever

First year free. If it earns a price later, you pay it once. We're all done renting software.

WHO IT'S FOR

For runners who'd rather own than rent.

This is for you if…

  • you want a desktop analytics dashboard you can actually read
  • you want your training history on your machine, not in someone's cloud
  • you'd rather pay once than subscribe forever
  • you already talk to an AI, and wish it knew your running

Probably not, if…

  • you want a phone-first recorder — your watch app already does that well
  • you're here for feeds, kudos, and segments
  • you're happiest with your data living on someone else's servers
The quiet math: subscription apps charge monthly because they pay monthly — servers, storage, staff. Debrief runs on the computer you already own. No overhead, nothing to pass on. That's why it can cost like a tool instead of a service.

If this sparks an idea for your own version — take it. We live in the era of bespoke software. — Dave
