About BryksBuilt
David coaches. Graeme builds. We got tired of watching good training get lost across five apps and a chat thread, so we built the one we both wanted.
David was coaching real clients out of spreadsheets, a chat app and a program builder that could not see any of it. His clients were logging workouts in one app and meals in another, which meant the two things that actually decide whether someone progresses were never in the same place.
Graeme had come off the ice and out of the trades, and was learning to build software. The plan was small at first. Fix the part that annoyed us. Then it became clear the whole thing needed to be one product: the app a person trains with, and the platform their coach runs on, sharing the same data.
So that is what we built, and we still build it every week. David runs his own clients inside it, which is the fastest bug report system ever invented. If something is annoying, we hear about it at dinner.
The two of us
Co founder. Builds the product.
Co founder. Runs the training side.
How we got here
Late 2025
Five apps to train, eat and track. One for workouts, one for calories, one for cardio, a coach in a chat thread, and a notes app holding it together. Nothing talked to anything.
December 2025
A former junior hockey player and a certified personal trainer decide to build the app they both wished existed. One place for the whole thing.
January 2026
Graeme teaches himself to ship. Every line written from scratch, TestFlight builds 1 through 7 inside the first month, tested daily with real workouts and real meals.
Spring 2026
David builds out the coach side: client management, a program builder backed by over 1,000 exercise demos, meal plans, real time messaging, check in forms with feedback, and a business dashboard. All of it synced between the app and the web portal.
April to May 2026
The trainer marketplace goes in, with a Find My Match quiz, reviews and direct bookings, so coaches get discovered by people already training in the app. Apple Watch and Apple Health import ship alongside it.
June 2026
BryksBuilt passes Apple review and goes live. Real gym goers and real trainers use it every day, and we ship something new most weeks.
Summer 2026
Home and lock screen widgets, a live workout in the Dynamic Island, and Bryksy, the AI assistant in the portal that spots client trends with the evidence attached and drafts programs, meal plans and check in forms for a coach to approve.
Now
Payments through a coach's own Stripe, white label branding, and an Android launch in the works. We are building the app you keep for life, and we are early.
What we believe
Most people quit before anything visible happens. So the app pays you back on day one, not month three.
Every platform helps a coach manage the clients they already have. Getting new ones is the hard part, so we put a marketplace inside the app and pointed it at them.
Thirty day challenges end. Your training does not. We build for the person still using this in ten years.
