SOUTHLAKE, Texas, November 20, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ancor Capital Partners, an operations-focused, Dallas-area private investment firm, recently announced a strategic partnership with Predictive Fitness, Inc., a Southlake-based innovator in AI-powered fitness software solutions targeted to endurance athletes, coaches, and health-conscious individuals.
Predictive Fitness leverages its proprietary AI-powered Optimization Engine and comprehensive dataset built over 20 years of research to transform data into insights and applications which help people improve performance, fitness, and health. In short, they deliver better results in less time with fewer injuries.
This investment marks Ancor’s latest move into the health and wellness sector, coinciding with a broader shift in the healthcare industry towards preventative and holistic health solutions. Today’s consumers are more health conscious than ever, increasingly seeking innovative solutions that support long term well-being over reactive treatments. Predictive Fitness’ efficacy in optimizing training to maximize results is a breakthrough in supporting the health of today’s active society.
“Ancor looks forward to partnering with Predictive Fitness at this key inflection point in their growth journey,” said J. Randall Keene, Founding Partner of Ancor Capital Partners. “This technology has the potential to fundamentally change how athletes train by supporting healthier, more sustainable, time-efficient fitness practices which will enhance the performance and results for its users.”
Predictive Fitness’ flagship application, TriDot, is a SaaS platform under the company’s performance science division. TriDot is the most advanced data-driven training for both athletes and coaches in the sport of triathlon. The platform has prescribed 100+ million athlete training sessions to date, combining their AI-powered technology with other key data such as biometrics, normalization of the training environment, and more, to deliver the most personalized training in the sport. TriDot’s positive impact was recognized in May 2024, when it won the “Best Technology for Data and Analytics (Sports)” at the annual Sports Technology Awards. Additionally, in November 2023, TriDot signed an exclusive agreement to become the Official Training Platform of IRONMAN®.
In 2023, Predictive Fitness introduced its second offering in the fitness space, RunDot. This solution uses the same proprietary AI-powered Optimization Engine to deliver better results in 30% less time with fewer injuries to the massive global running market. The company plans to introduce VeloDot for cycling in 2025.
