Carga plans your sessions, adapts to every set, and keeps you progressing — local-first, private, and fast.

Two ways in

Carga is one app with two sides: an AI coach that trains you, and a marketplace of vetted humans when you want one.

What you get

Everything below is in the app today — not a roadmap.

Programs that adapt

A multi-week plan generated from your goal, experience, equipment and schedule — regenerated when life changes.

Set-by-set sessions

Follow the session one set at a time: target reps, working weight, RPE, and a rest timer that starts itself.

Exercise library

Every movement has images, the muscles it targets, how-to steps, and alternatives when a machine is taken.

A coach that follows up

Carga notices stalled lifts, missed sessions and soreness — then proposes the next move instead of waiting to be asked.

Local-first and private

Your training history lives on your device. AI runs through a thin proxy that sees only what it needs to coach you.

Built for the gym floor

Big targets, high contrast, one-handed reach — readable at arm’s length with sweaty thumbs, mid-set.

For trainers

Are you a personal trainer?

Join Carga as a vetted coach: build your public profile, take on clients, and get paid — with a desktop-friendly application and verification flow.

Frequently asked questions

What is Carga?
Carga is an AI-first gym coach app for Android. It generates a personalized training program from your goals, experience, and available equipment, guides you through each session set by set, shows how every exercise and machine looks, and adapts your plan as your progress and schedule change.
How does the AI coach build my program?
You tell Carga your goal, experience level, equipment, and schedule. Carga's AI — powered by OpenAI's GPT models through a secure server proxy — generates a multi-week program with set-by-set sessions. As you log your training, the coach proactively suggests adjustments: swapping an exercise, changing load or volume, deloading, or updating the plan when your circumstances change.
How does the personal-trainer marketplace work?
Carga is building a curated marketplace of vetted personal trainers. Every trainer is manually reviewed and credential-checked — a valid CREF registration in Brazil, or a recognized certification such as NASM or ACE elsewhere — and passes identity verification before their profile goes live. Clients can then hire a verified coach for 1-on-1 remote coaching inside the app.
How much does Carga cost? Is there a free plan?
Yes. Carga has a free plan that is genuinely useful forever: it includes a generated program, set-by-set session tracking, and the full exercise and equipment library. A paid Pro plan removes the limits with unlimited program generation, unlimited proactive AI coaching, and unlimited chat. Pro pricing is shown in the app.
How do trainers get paid? What's the platform fee?
Trainers keep 85% of every payment. Carga charges a flat 15% platform fee and processes payments through Stripe Connect, which handles identity verification, billing, and payouts. The fee covers payment processing, platform infrastructure, and client acquisition.
Is my data private?
Yes. Carga is local-first: your training history lives on your device, not in the cloud. AI features run through a thin proxy that receives only what it needs to coach you — your full history is never farmed or sold.
