RepStandard tracks workout reps via local AI

While RepStandard offers a compelling, privacy-first alternative to manual logs and wearable tracking by processing computer vision entirely on-device, the requirement for precise side-profile camera placement could present a physical hurdle in diverse workout spaces. Processing pose detection locally successfully addresses major user trust barriers associated with camera-based tracking, while its structured system of streaks, XP, and progressive ranks provides strong behavioral incentives to combat high abandonment rates. However, the necessity of propping the device up at a specific angle and distance limits the app's usability to spacious, well-lit areas.
