Whether you've never cycled before, you're training for your first event, or you just want to get fitter on two wheels, we've got you covered. Training guides, route planning, nutrition tips, maintenance advice, local groups and events — everything you need to start riding and never stop.
Six things Etapa does for every rider — from your first turn of the pedals to your next big event.
Connect the tools you already use. Your guide sees how you're actually riding — and how well you're recovering — so it can adjust the plan around you.
Sync your recovery, strain, and sleep. Etapa reads how recovered you are each morning and eases off — or leans in — so you train when your body's ready, not just when the calendar says so.
Bring in your rides automatically — distance, time, heart rate, and routes — so your plan and check-ins reflect the riding you've actually done.
Connecting is optional, and you can disconnect any time in Settings. More wearables coming soon.

Etapa is an AI cycling app for beginners and riders of all levels. It builds a personalised training guide around your goal and the days you can ride, then helps with route planning, nutrition, bike maintenance, local groups and events — all in one place. It's a mobile app, not a gym or a piece of hardware.
New riders, people returning to cycling after time away, and anyone training for their first event. You don't need any cycling experience, and you don't need to know a single technical term to get started.
No. Etapa isn't a gym, a gym-membership scheme, or a piece of fitness hardware. It's a mobile app that coaches you through cycling on whatever bike you already own, indoors or outside.
Most cycling apps assume you already know how to train. Etapa is built for people at the start of the journey: it explains the reasoning in plain English, adapts the plan to your real life, and covers the whole picture — training, routes, maintenance, nutrition and events — not just ride tracking or indoor workouts. You can still connect Strava to bring your rides in automatically.
Personalised cycling training plans, route planning for your level and bike, strength, mobility and recovery sessions, step-by-step bike maintenance walkthroughs, help finding local riding groups, and a way to discover cycling events and sportives near you.
Etapa is free to download, with an optional subscription for the full experience.
