Question 1

Do you support my sport?

Accepted Answer

Running and cycling are first-class today. Drone is in active beta. Trail, triathlon, ski, and motorsports are on the roadmap and reuse the same engine — if you've got GPX, FIT, or flight metadata, the overlays will sit on your footage. Send us a note at bart@telemetrystudio.com — there's a good chance we already cover your sport, and if not we'd love to chat about getting it in.

Question 2

Do I need a power meter, FTP, or any fancy gear?

Accepted Answer

No. Plain GPS already drives the universal overlays — speed, distance, elevation, route, heart rate. Power meters, cadence sensors, and FTP are optional cycling enhancements that unlock the deeper cycling overlay set (W' balance, normalized power, training load).

Question 3

Does it work with phone footage?

Accepted Answer

Yes — that's the running prototype, shot on a phone. Telemetry Studio is designed for whatever camera was in your hand: phones, GoPros, Insta360s, mirrorless, drones. The export pipeline handles vertical and horizontal frames natively.

Question 4

How does the Strava integration work?

Accepted Answer

Auto-pair an activity, and the app picks up the sport, segments, KOM/QOM gaps, and your historical bests. For cycling, segment ghosts let you race a past PR overlaid on the current footage. Running uses the same connection for pace, splits, and route data.

Question 5

Where does my footage go?

Accepted Answer

Nowhere. Your footage never leaves your machine — no cloud uploads, no syncing in the background. Your clips stay on your drive, and rendering happens locally on your GPU.

Question 6

Mac or Windows?

Accepted Answer

Both. Native Apple Silicon for macOS and a 64-bit Windows build. One $79 Pro license covers 3 devices, so you can move between a desktop and a travel laptop.
