Split Smart: A Data-Driven Platform for Competitive Swimmers
Split Smart is a data-driven platform designed for competitive swimmers who want to improve their race splitting strategies. With the aim of connecting swimmers of all ages and ability levels to the insights of professional swimmers, Split Smart offers three main functions. Users can find splits using an inputted goal time, determine goal time and appropriate splits using an inputted personal best time of another relevant race, and discover how their favorite elite athlete would split an inputted final time.
Split Smart stands out for its exceptional accuracy, achieved through extensive research and analysis. Over 500 races were studied, including races from Olympic Games, national championships, and top European times. Mathematical equations based on this data were programmed into Split Smart, ensuring accurate results for every query.
This app is highly applicable for swimmers looking to improve their race strategies. It provides quick and precise answers to questions like, "What should my splits be for a 200 Yard Freestyle?" or "Did I split this race correctly?" Split Smart also evolves with the sport, updating its split calculation function after major meets to reflect the latest trends and best practices.
Please note that Split Smart takes into account gender and pool type when generating splits, so users should select their gender in the "My Profile" page for accurate results.
