Description
asensei started as a movement-recognition SDK and now runs as a small family of products built on the same computer-vision coaching engine: a consumer rowing app, a physical therapy assessment app called Kinaxa PT, and a partner SDK that licenses the underlying technology to other companies.

The rowing app connects by Bluetooth to Concept2, WaterRower and FluidRower machines and layers real-time feedback on top of a workout: split times, stroke rate and technique cues as you row. Programs are led by named coaches and Olympic rowers, including Eric Murray, Johan Quie and Saskia Budgett, and are built around structured, multi-week plans rather than single workouts. A training journal keeps a record across sessions, and the app has been used by British Rowing to distribute coaching expertise to a wider audience. Plans run from a free introductory tier through monthly and annual subscriptions, with family and gift options and a short free trial.
Kinaxa PT applies the same movement-tracking approach to physical therapy. A clinician points a phone at a patient's joint while they perform a standard movement protocol, and the app identifies the joint and measures range of motion automatically, without any extra hardware, room setup, or IT configuration. Video stays on the device; only the resulting numbers leave the phone, which the app frames as a privacy safeguard. Measurements can be copied into an EMR or read aloud to a voice scribe, and a dashboard tracks a patient's numbers over time. Pricing is per therapist or per practice, with a free trial for individual clinicians and volume pricing for multi-site practices.
The partner SDK is the original asensei product: it lets another company add asensei's movement coaching, described on the site as the ability to "turn your content into coaching," into its own app or platform. Public detail on this offering is limited to a partnership inquiry page rather than a full technical spec.
Taken together, asensei now serves three audiences from one underlying technology: rowers who want live coaching on their machine, physical therapists who need a fast, low-friction way to document range of motion, and product teams in fitness or healthcare who want to add motion-based coaching to their own software.
