StriveSide is a real-time running companion app. It shows you anonymous dots on a world map of real people running at the time you want to run. You run your own route, at your own pace, but know you're not running alone. When you finish, you see exactly how many people ran with you.

Most running apps are about tracking your personal performance such as pace, distance, calories. StriveSide is about one thing: making sure you never feel alone on your run. There are no leaderboards, no social feeds, no pressure. Just the quiet knowledge that someone, somewhere in the world, is running with you right now.

Anonymity is the point. You don't need to perform for anyone, no one will judge your pace. Your location only ever shows as a country-level cluster, never your exact position. The result is a feeling of genuine human connection without any of the social anxiety that comes with it. You're part of something bigger, completely on your own terms. But if you are a runner, how cool is it to give others the confidence to start running as well, especially because they're not doing it alone?

Nope! And that's the whole idea. You run wherever you are, everyone else runs wherever they are. You're connected through the app, not physically. Your running buddy might be in Tokyo or New York while you're in Dublin. That's what makes it special.

A Runtime is a scheduled group run. Anyone can create one: give it a name, set a time and duration. You can also share it to invite people to join you on your run. Other runners join, and at the scheduled time everyone starts together from wherever they are in the world. Same moment, different cities.

Strivory is your personal run history with a record of every run you've completed and how many people ran with you each time.

StriveSide is built for outdoor running only. The live map only shows runners who are outside, that's what makes it feel real. Treadmills are great, but the best way is to lace up, step outside and be your own dot the map.

You'll never run alone again :)
