AI-powered Pose Detection App for Transforming Personal Training

A fitness startup in USA approached us with an idea of developing a mobile app that can revolutionize fitness game/home workouts. The client wanted an app with cutting-edge integrations to elevate user experience. Their idea was to create an app that could simply detect the user’s pose and offer customized workout feedback. Besides, they also wanted to have a conversational chatbot built-in in the app. Their business vision was to match the trend of virtual fitness by combining real-time analysis and generative AI technologies.

Business Goals

  • The client wanted to increase market share for which they proposed to build an AI-driven workout assistant.
  • Another aim was to not only provide workout assistants but also ensure users interact with the app. Their idea was to offer feedback-rich features like pose-detection and AI chatbot.
  • On technical level, the client waned to build an app that runs on both Android & iOS platforms without writing double codebase and reach millions of users quickly.
  • The initial idea was to offer a freemium version alongside a paid-plan that is AI-backed.
  • With backend integration like Firestore, the client aimed to collect anonymized usage data to fine-tune exercise recommendations and chatbot behavior over time.

Challenges Faced by Our Client

Lack of Real-Time Pose Accuracy Guidance

Lack of Real-Time Pose Accuracy Guidance

The client wanted to build an app that offers real-time pose detection during strenuous exercises to get the optimum benefits out of it.

User Engagement & Retention

User Engagement & Retention

Users tends to stay for a longer period if they like to get engaged or the app is worth engaging. Without much engagement or interactions, the app couldn’t survive the cut-throat competition.

Maintaining Dynamic Content Without Frequent

Maintaining Dynamic Content Without Frequent Updates

The client had a demand to enable entirely new chatbot prompts and configurations without depending on constant redeployment.

Ensuring Data Sync & Storage

Ensuring Data Sync & Storage

Real-time user data, progress monitoring, and profile updates wanted consistent syncing across sessions and devices.

CI/CD Deployment

Streamlining CI/CD Deployment

The client required a smooth pipeline to release updates quickly.

  • On-Device Pose Detection Using Google ML Kit

    Our software development team integrated Google’s ML Kit Pose Detection API, which offers on-device machine learning for identifying body joints in real-time. This allowed the app to analyze user movements with minimal latency, delivering immediate posture correction and eliminating the need for constant internet connectivity.

  • AI-Powered Conversational Chatbot with Google Gemini

    With the help of Google Gemini API, our software developers implemented a chatbot powered by AI that can handle contextual conversations and deliver customized responses The chatbot would answer fitness freak questions, guide users with routines, and create with two-way fitness experience that brings back users and hook the for life.

  • Firebase Remote Configuration for Instant Content Updates

    We utilized Firebase Remote Configuration that made users believe that they can update prompts, UI content, and feature toggles directly from firebase console. As a result, the users were able to get access to full editorial control over app behavior without many changes in code.

  • Real-Time Data Sync with Cloud Firestore

    Another solutions we offered was by integrating Firebase Cloud Firestore, which is a scalable NoSQL database that shares and stores synchronized data. There will be profile updates, preferences, and workout stats that becomes instantly available and consistent.

  • CI/CD Automation Using GitHUB Actions

    We enabled a robust CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, which automated functions like building, testing, and deploying both Android and iOS versions. Every time with the code push, the system starts performing quality checks. As a result, it maintains high codebase and accelerate release cycles.

Our Work Process

01
Collecting Requirements

The project initiated after discussing and understanding the client’s vision for a real-time exercise detection mobile application with smart assistance.

Collecting Requirements
02
Tech Stack Selection

Based on the requirement, flutter was finalized due to its cross-platform functionality benefit, Google ML Kit for real-time pose detection, Firebase (including Auth, Remote Config, and Firestone) for backend infra, and Google Gemini API for AI chatbot integration.

Tech Stack Selection
03
Design & Architecture Planning

We structured pose detection mobile app using MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) architecture that enables clean differentiation between user interfaces and logic layers. Mapped out were the user flows for profile editing, chatbot communication, exercise tracking, and login.

Design & Architecture Planning
04
Development Phases

The app was developed under the phase that initiates with Firebase authentication, and profile management. Real-time pose detection, AI chatbot integration, and dynamic content updates followed, supported by Firestore and CI/CD setup.

Development Phases
05
Testing & Optimization

Thorough testing ensured pose accuracy across body types and environments. Chatbot responses, UI elements, and app performance were refined for a seamless user experience on all devices.

Testing & Optimization
06
Deployment & Monitoring

The app was deployed to Android and iOS stores with automated CI/CD pipelines. Monitoring tools were used to track crashes and ensure stability post-launch.

Deployment & Monitoring
07
Maintenance & Scaling

Post-deployment, we enable Firebase Remote Config for updates to chatbot prompts and managed exercise content dynamically. The scalable architecture allows for easy expansion, including monetization, wearables, and advanced analytics.
