‍Hi FitverseHub team, and thank you for taking the time to speak with us about your experience in the DDAccelerator! To start off, could you introduce your product and tell us what it’s all about?
Thanks for inviting us! Think of FitverseHub as a pocket‑sized coach that learns along with you. The moment you open the app, it builds a workout that matches your goals and schedule – no expensive wearables or spreadsheets required. Snap a quick photo of your dinner and our AI model gives you a calorie estimate; finish a workout and the plan auto‑tunes your next session.
Behind the scenes, we mix a large exercise library with coaching principles we’ve tried on ourselves over the years and built with the help of the coaches we worked with. But the real magic happens in the community tab, where people post their meals, swap progress photos, and cheer each other on.

Your product introduces a new approach to fitness by personalizing workouts, nutrition, and individual goals – but it doesn’t stop there. You also incorporate gamification into FitverseHub – how does that work, and what value does it bring to users?
We keep motivation high with a few straightforward tools: a daily streak counter that rewards consistency, a color‑coded body map showing which muscles you’ve trained, gentle alerts when you beat your own records. Simple by design, these subtle tools make progress tangible and shareable – highlighting the muscles you haven’t trained yet and sustaining our users’ motivation every step of the way.

‍How did the idea to create your own fitness solution come about? Was the initial motivation driven by a lack of comprehensive options from existing competitors?
We’re both coders who spend a lot of time in the gym, and nothing out there felt like it was built for people like us. Most apps were either too clinical or too gimmicky. One weekend we hacked together a little prototype – half workout generator, half game. We shared it with friends, expecting polite feedback, but they kept using it. That’s when we realized we might be onto something.

‍We’d love to hear more about your story – how did you come together as a team of innovators? Have you always been drawn to the idea of starting your own business? What’s your background, and how did your paths cross?
We go way back, childhood friends who bonded over pull‑up contests and a shared curiosity for how things work. In high school we taught ourselves to code so we could build small tools for our workouts. University pushed us into bigger projects, from a meal‑tracking chatbot to an AI tool that flagged pathologies in medical scans. We've always been fascinated by how technology can improve our lives. The more we collaborated, the clearer it became that starting a startup together was only a matter of time.

‍I’d like to ask about your experience with the DDAccelerator – what expectations did you have going into the programme, and how were they met? Could you highlight the activities or moments that were the most valuable for you?
We showed up hoping to learn how to talk about our product without drowning people in tech jargon, and DDAccelerator delivered. Two lessons stuck with us. First, mentors drilled the importance of measuring what matters, guiding us to focus on the important metrics – how many quests a user completes each week – and to organize our sprints around moving that number. Second, the pitch‑practice clinics and mock sales calls taught us to replace feature lists with clear user benefits and close every conversation with a concrete next step. The difference in our customer and investor meetings is immense.

‍Are you currently looking for any collaborations, partnerships, or specific types of support that could help take FitverseHub to the next level?
Absolutely. We’re keen to partner with anyone who can help us inspire more people to move – whether that’s a wellness brand co‑creating fresh challenges, a wearable maker looking for a software companion, or fitness creators who want to bring their communities into the app. We’re also in conversation with investors who share our belief that healthy routines should be accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Looking ahead, what are your next steps for FitverseHub? How do you plan to build on what you’ve learned through the DDAccelerator, and in which direction would you like to grow or expand your solution?
We’re about to introduce community guilds that let users and coaches set up their own challenges, share programs and support one another. Shortly after, FitverseHub will sync with Apple Health and Garmin so your stats flow straight into your plan. Meanwhile, our adaptive engine keeps learning in the background, making every workout and meal suggestion feel even more personal. Whether you’re stepping into the gym for the first time or chasing a new personal best, we aim to be the smart companion that keeps you moving forward.

Thank you once again, FitverseHub team, for sharing your journey with us – it’s been a real pleasure to hear how you're reshaping fitness through technology and community. We’re wishing you the best of luck as you continue to grow and inspire movement around the world.

For all innovators building in the ICT space: applications for the final round of the DDAccelerator are open until June 7. If you’re working on something bold, now’s the time to jump in!
