Built for climbers, by a climber

A spreadsheet can't tell you
when you're safe.

50% of climbers are injured every year. 33% are finger injuries. Recovery takes 6 weeks to 12 months—and no column shows you where you actually are. Know your stage, stop guessing, and climb again with confidence.

Stop guessing. Start recovering — the right way.

Real struggles from real climbers

"I don't know if I'm on the right track, or if I should be doing something different. I'm just guessing at this point."

r/climbing · Grade II pulley recovery

No Progress Tracking

"I had one injury where I took almost 4 months off climbing (too long). When I came back my fingers felt weak and my muscles had atrophied."

r/climbing · over-resting mistake

Over-Resting

"How do I know when to start climbing again? I don't want to re-injure it but I also don't want to lose all my progress."

r/bouldering · return-to-climb anxiety

When to Climb?

"In a year and a half of climbing I got 3 pulley injuries. Then over the next 2 years I have at most had a sore/tweaky feeling finger."

Re-Injury Cycle

"I wish I had something as simple and as effective as this looks when I injured my fingers for the first time."

r/climbing · reacting to a free diagnosis app

Wants Simple Tool

"Everyone seems to recommend putty to help the healing process but I have no idea how much, how often, or when to progress."
