Where Joti stands out

The differences that matter most if you want more than a plain logger.

An AI training partner built into the app: instant written summaries after every session, and AI that finds or builds workouts and exercises from a plain-English description.

Automatic progression that raises your weights or reps based on your real logged results, using only the equipment you own.

Sign in to Joti from Claude, ChatGPT or other AI assistants and let them pull your stats, build or duplicate workouts, and manage your calendar in plain conversation — every AI change is logged and one-tap undoable.

A body progress photo comparison tool with both side-by-side and wipe-slider views, plus weight and body fat synced straight to Apple Health / Health Connect.

A plate calculator driven by the equipment you actually own, plus points, streaks, ranks and 75+ themes.

Guided Rounds for boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai and other round-based training, with built-in round and rest timers.

Very competitively priced — and the AI training partner is included, not a separate paid add-on.

Where Hevy might suit you better

Hevy is known for a genuinely generous free tier and one of the most active social communities in workout tracking. If following friends and a busy community feed is your top priority, Hevy leads there.

Joti vs Hevy: common questions

Is Joti or Hevy better for tracking workouts?

Both track your lifts well across web and mobile, with routines, personal bests, warmup/drop/failure sets, supersets and an exercise library. Joti adds an AI training partner (written session summaries, AI workout and exercise search), automatic progression, and lets you connect Claude or ChatGPT directly to your training data, plus points and streaks. Hevy is known for a generous free tier and a strong social community. Choose Joti for AI feedback and progression; choose Hevy if community and the free tier matter most.

Does Hevy have AI features?

Hevy focuses on logging and community rather than AI. It does not offer AI-written session summaries, AI workout generation, or a way to connect an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT to your data, which Joti builds in.
