CHLNG - bring joy back to the amateur sport.
Hi everyone,
Hope you’re doing well! 🙂
2025 is coming to an end, and I hope you’re looking forward to the Christmas break and already have plans to spend your time with family and friends.
The last 2 months were busy for me, as I enrolled in the study for bootcamp: AI for Product Creation.
I can write a lot about my experience, and especially about AI, but let’s keep this topic for later. 🙂 If it’s interesting for you, just let me know, and I’ll prepare a post about it.
Today, I want to share with all of you that I am starting to build an app.
During my study, I came up with one idea, and by the end, I realized that I had all the tools and software to actually build it and validate the market.
Today on the market, we have hundreds of fitness tracking applications, and they all do a great job. We have deep data, but what % of people are really using it or understand?
At some point, I realized that amateur sport lost the main thing: fun.
Back in the days, when I was young and did canoe sprint, each weekend we had a control training. During the winter season, we participated in various internal competitions, where we competed for fun and, of course, grew as athletes.

Introducing 𝐂𝐇𝐋𝐍𝐆.
It’s not a tracker.
It’s a game.
⚔️ 𝟏𝐯𝟏 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐬: Challenge friends duels. (Short sport challenges)
🛡️ 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐬: Your sweat converts into Strength, Agility, or Focus.
🚀 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐀𝐈 & 𝐌𝐞: I am a solo builder using AI to build this at the speed of a startup team. 🙂
I want to build this in public and share my journey. 🙂
Yes, maybe it’s not clear for 100% now about the idea, but I will share more and more details in the near future.
If you had any type of friendly competition once with your friend, I bet you’ll enjoy it.
If you want me to help shape the first beta and join a pool of beta testers, you can do it.
No spam. Even no “Welcome email”, after registration. You’ll get an update once app is ready for a test.
Thank you, and see you soon!
Cheers,
Taras
