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.
Points, streaks and ranks to keep training a habit — plus 75+ themes and a customisable dashboard.
Guided Rounds for boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai and other round-based training, with built-in round and rest timers — plus body tracking for weight, measurements and progress photos.
Very competitively priced — and the AI training partner is included, not a separate paid add-on.
Strong is long-established, very polished and deliberately minimalist. If you want a battle-tested, no-frills logger and have no interest in AI features or gamification, Strong is a great choice.
Both handle the core logging — sets, reps, weight, rest timers and personal bests — well. Joti adds an AI training partner (written session summaries, AI workout and exercise search) and automatic progression, plus points and streaks. Strong is a simpler, long-established, minimalist logger. Choose Joti if you want AI feedback and progression; choose Strong if you prefer a no-frills tracker.
Strong is a traditional strength-training logger and does not offer AI-written session summaries or AI workout generation. Joti builds those in.
Joti is free to download and every plan includes a 1-month free trial. After that, an optional subscription unlocks everything — current pricing is shown in the app and on your app store.
