Do you remember when you first started walking? Your mom probably told you to put one foot in front of the other, and soon you were toddling around like a pro. But do you remember when you first started running? Chances are, you just took off and hoped for the best.

Now imagine you’re in your mid-30s or 40s, and you decide to start running to get in shape. You’ve never been a runner before, but you figure it can’t be that hard, right? Wrong. Running is a high-impact activity that can take a toll on your body if you’re not doing it correctly.
In fact, according to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, more than 50% of runners will experience an injury each year. And those injuries can be serious — stress fractures, shin splints, and knee pain are just a few of the common injuries that can sideline even the most dedicated runner.
But here’s the good news: with AiKYNETIX’s computer vision technology, runners can learn to run correctly and avoid those injuries altogether.

AiKYNETIX leverages computer vision and AI to analyze a runner’s gait and provide real-time feedback on their form, all without the need for any sensors. Using just a single iPhone camera and our smartphone app, runners can access valuable biomechanics and running metrics to help them improve their technique and avoid injury. With AiKYNETIX, you can run more efficiently and with less risk, whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just starting out on your fitness journey. And that’s important, because running is one of the most accessible forms of exercise out there. It doesn’t require any special equipment, and you can do it anywhere.
So imagine a world where everyone can run safely and without fear of injury. That’s the world that AiKYNETIX is working to create. And it’s not just good for runners — it’s good for all of us. When people are healthy and active, they’re happier, more productive, and less of a burden on our healthcare system.
So if you’re a runner, or if you know someone who is, consider giving AiKYNETIX a try. It could be the difference between a lifetime of pain and a lifetime of healthy, enjoyable running.
