Pre-launch · Porto

Train with someone who shows up.

GymMate matches people who train at the same time, with similar goals, at your gym. Stop training alone.

Launching in Porto Q3 2026

The problem

ATraining alone kills momentum.
BFinding a workout partner who fits your schedule is rare.
CFitness apps focus on tracking. Not on people.
How it works

Three steps. No fluff.

01

Build your profile — sport, goal, schedule, gym.

Tell us when and how you train. The more specific, the better the matches.

02

See who trains next to you, on your time.

We only show people whose windows overlap with yours. No ghost profiles from other cities.

03

Match → chat → book the next session.

Chat unlocks only after a mutual match. You both showed up. No ghosting, no unsolicited DMs.

The app in action

See how it works inside.

Discovery

Cards filtered by schedule, sport and gym that fit yours.

It's a Match!

The moment it clicks. Unlocks the chat and the next session.

Chat

Conversation only after a mutual match. Plan the next session without leaving the app.

Why GymMate

Built for people who train seriously.

Schedule compatibility comes first.

The algorithm cross-checks your real windows against everyone else first. A match is useless if neither of you ever shows.

Filter by sport and goal.

Not just by face — by what you actually do on the gym floor.

Private by default.

We show your gym, not your address. Photos optional. Block and report built in.

Match-first chat.

No unsolicited messages. You only talk if you both said yes.

Roots

Built in Porto, for Porto first.

We're talking to local gyms to start with a dense network where it actually matters. Want your gym on the launch list? Tell us by email — we reply to everyone.

We don't spam. We only ping you when we open slots at your gym.

Frequently asked

Everything you might wonder.

Yes. During launch the whole app is free for the first testers in Porto. Later we'll have an optional premium tier, but the core — finding a workout partner — stays free for good.

Porto first. Lisbon next, as soon as we have enough density to guarantee real matches. Other Portuguese cities follow demand.

For now, yes — we focus on gym training (lifting, functional, machines). Later we'll open for CrossFit, running, hyrox and other sports. People who join now help us decide what comes next.

Approximate location (we show your gym, not your address). Photos are optional. Chat only unlocks after mutual match. Block and report are one tap away. Fully GDPR-compliant; we never sell data.

Q3 2026 in Porto. People on the waitlist get invited first — in waves of 100 users so we can guarantee local density before opening more.
