01 · Coach
A coach who knows you
Via is Runvia’s Coach IA. On Premium you don’t start from scratch each chat: fuller memory, load, recovery and your goal.
- Full memory across chats
- Context on form, load and wellness
- Replans when life gets in the way
Free forever · Premium optional
Via remembers, decides
and sends the workout to your wrist.
Free: Coach IA Via with your Chave Gemini, GPS and Strava. Premium: form, load and readiness computed in-app and used by Via — plus a plan toward race day, real recovery and workouts on your watch.
- Running science · form, fatigue, ACWR, readiness — Premium only
- Via sees them · coaches with load, recovery and goal, not chat alone
- Plan toward race day · workouts on Garmin, Suunto and Apple Watch · sleep and HRV
Subscription and trial: in your country’s store. Free stays. Cancel anytime.
What Premium changes
Three steps beyond free
On Free you log and ask Via. On Premium the numbers (form, load, readiness) exist, steer Today and reach the coach — with the plan on your wrist.
02 · Today & race
Clarity on today and finish
Today hub: push, hold or rest. The plan isn’t a fixed PDF — it’s a rolling window toward race day.
- Daily guidance
- Race phases and finish estimate
- Race-specific · trail/D+ · strength
03 · Wrist
The plan on your wrist
Same intervals between app and watch. Overnight sleep, HRV and resting HR reach the morning — and Via sees them.
- Garmin · Suunto · Apple Watch
- Send workouts and guides from the calendar
- Overnight recovery from Health and partners
Science in plain language
What Premium numbers mean
On Free this stack isn’t there: no computed form/fatigue/ACWR/readiness, and Via doesn’t use them in coaching. On Premium the numbers exist, read clearly, and Via applies them — they don’t stay stuck in a chart.
CTL · ATL · TSB
Fitness (weeks), Fatigue (recent days) and Form = how fresh you are. See whether to push or recover.
ACWR
Recent / chronic load ratio in bands (fresh, balanced, fatigued). Helps avoid sharp jumps in volume or intensity.
VDOT
Estimate from real PRs / best efforts (Daniels). Paces and race prediction only when form is measured — no circular prediction from the target.
Readiness
Load + feel; with Health/partners also sleep, HRV and resting HR. Outcome: push, hold or recover — aligned with the Today hub.

Runs can already arrive via Strava (Free). Premium closes the loop: workout on the wrist + overnight data + morning decision.

Questions
Before you subscribe
Do I need Premium for the coach?
No. Via works free with your Chave Gemini. On Free she doesn’t see form, load or readiness: Premium computes those numbers and gives them to Via, plus memory, plan, watch and Health.
Are form and load free?
No. CTL/ATL/TSB, ACWR, readiness and race estimate are Premium only — and Via uses them in coaching. On Free you keep archive, GPS and chat.
I already have Strava — why Premium?
Strava brings runs on free. Premium turns those runs into form/load, ties them to Today and the coach, plus workouts on the wrist and overnight recovery.
Is Wear OS Premium?
The companion while GPS runs on the phone is free. Native workouts on Garmin, Suunto and Apple Watch = Premium.
Can I cancel?
Yes, from the store anytime. Free always stays.
Indie
A note from Fabio
Runvia started so I could analyze my own training, and it’s open free to everyone. Premium unlocks advanced features and supports an indie app with no ads.
Try Premium in the app
Free stays yours. Price and trial in the store.
Price and trial: Apple / Google in your country. Form · load · readiness · Garmin · Suunto · Health = Premium. Strava and Wear companion = free.
