Terms of Use
Last updated 29 July 2026
VeloPrompt sets the resistance on your trainer, and it builds workouts with a language model. Neither of those is a coach and neither knows anything about your health. You are the one deciding whether a workout is safe for you to ride — stop, pause or spin the resistance down any time something feels wrong.
Who these terms are with
VeloPrompt is built and run by an individual developer based in California, USA — there is no company behind it. Below, "the developer" means that person, who is named as the seller on the app's App Store listing. Using the app means you accept these terms. Questions about them go to velopromptapp@gmail.com.
Training with a smart trainer
Indoor cycling at intensity carries real risk. VeloPrompt controls trainer resistance in ERG mode, which means the trainer will hold a target power until you change it — including targets that are too hard for you on the day.
- Get medical clearance if you need it. The app is not medical advice, and it has no idea about your heart, your injuries or your medication. If you have any reason to check with a doctor before hard exercise, do that first.
- You can always override it. Pause, end the ride, adjust the target, or stop pedalling. Nothing in the app requires you to complete a workout it generated.
- Set your FTP honestly. Every generated workout scales to the FTP you enter. An inflated number produces targets you can't hold safely.
- Look after your own setup. Bike, trainer, mounting, ventilation and surroundings are yours to keep safe. Follow your trainer manufacturer's instructions.
You ride at your own risk, and you're responsible for deciding what to attempt.
AI-generated workouts
AI Ride, AI Check-in and multi-week programs send your request to a language model, which returns a structured workout. That output is generated, not reviewed by a coach. It can be wrong, oddly paced, or badly matched to what you actually need. Preview it, edit the blocks, and don't ride something that looks unreasonable.
The check-in describes patterns in rides you've already recorded. It is a summary of your own data, not a diagnosis and not a training prescription.
Your account
- Signing in is optional; much of the app works without an account.
- Keep your sign-in method secure. Activity through your account is treated as yours.
- Don't use the app to break the law, to abuse the AI features, or to try to overload, reverse-engineer or circumvent the service or its limits.
- Accounts can be closed for serious or repeated misuse.
Beta, and what it costs
VeloPrompt is in beta. Everything is free during the beta — no card, no limits, nothing to subscribe to. Features may change, break or disappear while the beta runs, and ride data, while intended to persist, shouldn't be treated as a permanent archive.
Paid plans will exist later. Pricing and the free/premium split will be published before they take effect, and no one will be charged without agreeing to a price first. Any subscription bought through the App Store is billed and cancelled through your Apple account under Apple's terms.
What the app doesn't promise
The app is provided as it is, without warranties of any kind — including that it will be available, that it will connect to your trainer, that the metrics are accurate, or that a generated workout is appropriate for you. Bluetooth hardware varies and the app can't guarantee it will work with a given trainer or strap.
To the fullest extent the law allows, the developer isn't liable for injury, loss of data, lost training time, or any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the app. Nothing here limits liability that can't be limited by law.
Your data
How your data is handled — including what is sent to the AI provider, and how to have it deleted — is covered in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute that can't be settled informally by email goes to the state or federal courts located in California, and both you and the developer agree to that venue.
If you live somewhere whose consumer law gives you rights that can't be signed away, nothing here takes those away — including, under California law, any liability that cannot be disclaimed.
Changes
If these terms change materially, the date at the top will change and the updated terms will be posted here before the change takes effect. Continuing to use the app after that means you accept the new version.
