I built the climbing app I wanted to use.
Spreadsheets forget your projects. Strava doesn't know what 7c+ in 8°C felt like. Notion doesn't have context. So I built a logbook, a planner and a chat that share one memory.

AI tools, not an AI coach.
A logbook, a planner and a chat. They share one memory. It files what you log, shows you patterns, and leaves the climbing to you.
Plan
Sessions, projects, cycle tracking. All connected.
Training & Calendar
Plans from your goal, your week and how the last block went, up to 12 weeks with a roadmap. Sessions sync to Google Calendar and play step by step with timers. Pro members can have a plan reviewed by a real coach.
Weather
Multi-day forecasts, nearby webcams and recent crag reports at every outdoor project. Know if Saturday is worth the drive.
Competitions
Live tops and zones during comps. Comp days count towards your training load.
Climb
Full overview from your phone.
Logbook
Gym, boards, outdoor. One place. Sync Kilter, Tension, MoonBoard and Crux, or import a CSV. Grades in your scale, your gym's own colours.
Projects
Track every stage from exploring to sending. Beta notes, photos, feelings, weather windows.
Finger strength
Tindeq, WH-C06, or ask about yours. Live force, target lifts, sets logged for you, progress over years.
Timers Hangboard and climbing-specific repeaters.
Video and photo notes
Timestamped notes on your videos, pins on your photos, replies from your coach.
Reflect
Voice notes, photos and weather. Right where you log.
Chat
Ask anything about your climbing, this week or three seasons ago. Voice notes, photos, web search and weather built in.
Reports
Weekly and monthly summaries, in the app or in your inbox. Patterns you'd miss without looking.
Training load
Fresh, productive, overreaching, or time to deload, from everything you log. This week against your usual week, with 12 weeks of history.
Health syncopt-in
Sleep, HRV and workouts from Apple Health, and Health Connect on Android (early). Cycle and energy if you log them. So you see the whole picture.
Cycle tracking, wellbeing metrics, health data. Climbing is more than grades. Your body's signals count, and stay yours.
Native apps on iPhone, iPad, Android and Apple Watch. All synced with the web.
* Wear OS and other Android wearables coming soon.
Video and photo notes
Notes on the exact move
Pause your video at the crux and say what you saw. Pin a note to a hold on a photo. If you climb with a coach, they can reply, and you can answer back.
1Notes on the timeline
Pause where it matters and write it down. Every note is a mark on the timeline, so one tap jumps back to that second.
Pins on photos
Zoom in, drop a pin on a hold or a body position and say what you see.
Replies and reactions
Both sides can answer a note or react with an emoji, so it reads as a conversation and not a one-way review.
Live in the web app now. The iPhone and Android apps get it with the next releases.
What sticks.
A peek at the kind of stuff that ends up in your logbook, your project notes, your sessions.

Why not just ChatGPT?
The same AI, with your climbing already in it
General AI is useful, and it remembers past chats now. But it only knows what you typed. Not your logbook, your board, your calendar or the conditions at your crag. Luz gives it that.
| General AI (ChatGPT, Claude…) | Luz |
|---|---|
| Knows only what you remember to type in. | Works from your full logbook, projects and training. |
| No access to your board, calendar or local weather. | Knows your Kilter, Tension or Moonboard climbs, your schedule, and your crag's conditions. |
| Advice stays in a chat thread. | Logging, plans and history stay connected in one app. |
| Can't tell you how your month went. | Weekly and monthly reports on your climbing, in the app or in your inbox. |

Our values
Process over outcome.
Love the process. Training should feel like climbing. Grades follow when you stop chasing them.
Truth over hype.
AI organizes, spots patterns, summarizes. When it doesn't know, it says so.
Whole climber.
Strong body, calm mind, healthy life. Self-awareness beats data. Sustainable progress over burnout.
Built by climbers.
For climbers. Nobody here judges your grade. AI is a tool, not your coach. Bring your own coach and they see what you log.
Continuous adaptation.
Listen to your body, your week, your feelings. Adjust on data and on intuition.
Responsible & inclusive.
Leave No Trace. All bodies, all identities. We donate 2% to climbing access and environmental causes. See our impact.

Built by one person
Luz is built by one person. There are no investors, so nobody is waiting for a return on you.
2% of everything goes to climbing access and conservation, every month, as it has from the start. The rest pays for the servers, the AI, and the time to keep building this. One day I'd like it to pay for my full attention.
What I want it to fund next: climbing initiatives worth backing, free accounts for climbers and national teams who can't pay, and an ambassador program that actually pays the people in it. None of that exists yet.

Questions we get most
- Do I really have to pay upfront?
- Yes. AI tokens cost money, so you pay upfront. If it's not for you, you get a full refund within 30 days, on any tier, no questions asked.
- Why do you use Anthropic for AI instead of other providers?
- We chose Anthropic's Claude models because they prioritize privacy. They automatically delete all data after 30 days and never use your climbing data to train their AI models. OpenAI and many other providers don't promise that. Your training logs, projects, and personal data stay private.
- Can the AI see my photos and videos?
- Only the ones you choose to share. We store your files securely and send nothing to the AI by default. You can turn on sharing for a specific photo when you want the AI to look at it. We never send videos, so the AI only ever sees their text descriptions.
- What about privacy and sensitive data?
- We treat wellbeing and cycle data as sensitive. Each AI use has its own switch you can keep off. You can export all your data as one file, and delete your account whenever you want.
- Is the web app aligned with the mobile apps?
- Yes. Calendar, projects, AI chat, weather, and all core features match the current web experience, with native design on iOS and Android.
- How does weather integration work?
- 16-day forecasts, nearby webcams and recent crag reports from other climbers, right where you plan, in chat, calendar and project views.
- How do I share feedback or bug reports?
- Email hello@luzclimbing.com, ping our Telegram bot, or join our Discord community. It's me who answers, usually the same day.
