Working with us.
Our Process
Our technology is designed to seamlessly integrate with your existing setup and requirements - this flexibility is reflected in our hands-on onboarding and development process.
Regular input from your team is crucial to ensure we’re delivering the right product to you. But we also understand that time is precious, and endeavour to keep the process as smooth and efficient as possible. If you use any third party tech, we’re able to work directly with them too.
Here are some steps you can expect to follow when working with us:
Discovery
A member of the VOR team will arrange a schedule of initial meetings over 1-2 weeks to discuss your needs, requirements and priorities for the VOR engine.
Discovery is split into two areas: tech & fitness
Tech discovery: assessing the level of integration required, taking into account your existing tech stack (if applicable), or any more bespoke solutions that are needed. No tech in-house? No problem. We have a range of trusted partners we can work with here to fill any gaps.
Fitness discovery: understanding the DNA of your business, who the customers are, what their needs are, and how the engine can best serve them.
Tailoring
We tailor the VOR engine to your unique business requirements, from customer types to gym floor plans.
Once we have completed and tested the initial round of adjustments to the engine, we’ll generate some workouts for you to check over and feedback. We’ll then iterate based on your feedback and refine your engine even more to your business goals.
At the end of this phase you will have a fully bespoke, one-of-a-kind version of the VOR engine.
Integration
Whilst we tailor the engine to your business, we’ll work concurrently on technology integration, either through API integration with your existing systems or a new tech stack if needed.
Support and updates
Once the VOR engine is tailored, integrated and activated, it’s time to put it to work. Your team will now be able to start generating quality programmes at scale for your customers.
The VOR team will always be on hand to offer support, adjustments, new features and handle requests. You will also benefit from any new general features and enhancements to the engine as they are launched. The VOR engine and all of its data is hosted and managed securely by us, and covered within your monthly subscription costs.

FAQs
No. We’ve spent years as trainers ourselves, so we know that AI can never replace them and gyms will only hurt themselves if they try. Instead, we’re empowering trainers to focus on what matters most – motivation, accountability, safeguarding and support – instead of spending all their time and energy on workout planning. We think our technology will do for trainers what the calculator did for accountants.
Nope. We just want to automate the repetitive parts of trainers’ jobs, so our AI for gyms is designed to integrate with your business and offer an experience customised for you. Which means no new hardware, and no new tech stack.
VOR technology has been designed and overseen by our experienced team of AI experts and personal trainers every step of the way. Rooted in exercise science best practices, it uses parameters for injuries, targets, training environments and backgrounds to make sure your trainers are well equipped to help every client smash their fitness goals.
Our automation engine is not a plugin to a Large Language Model (LLM) like ChatGPT, which can provide unreliable and unpredictable results that might look good enough to the untrained eye, but aren’t safe or appropriate for the exerciser. Our AI is built from scratch for the specific purpose of creating workouts, drawing on our CTO Jesse Shanahan’s background in astrophysics. This means we have a tool that is fully customisable to any fitness business and its unique training style.
With the help of our AI workout generator, your trainers can run higher-quality and more consistent workout plans for improved member experience and retention. By empowering trainers to be their best selves on the gym floor, you’ll see a reduction in staff turnover, which supports good gym culture. More engaged members and higher quality training have a bottom-line impact: in the medium and long term, VOR provides a high ROI.
