Welcome to .io—built for trainers, by trainers. This isn’t just an app. It’s a movement. A solution to the struggle personal trainers face every day.
As a first-generation immigrant, I watched my parents rebuild their lives from scratch after fleeing a civil war. Success isn’t given—it’s built through grit, sacrifice, and belief. That mindset took me through finance, investment banking, and tech, where I learned how the biggest businesses scale. But no matter how “successful” I was, I felt out of place. I wasn’t meant to build someone else’s dream.
Then came fitness.
I built my personal brand—training, coaching, running challenges—until I saw a problem: personal trainers were struggling to run their businesses. The tools available were outdated, clunky, or built by people who never coached a client in their lives.
I saw talented trainers working 60+ hour weeks, barely making ends meet. I saw coaches struggling to grow, while millions of people needed their guidance but couldn’t find them.
So, I bet everything on Spottyr.
During the pandemic, I was laid off from my tech job. Instead of playing it safe, I cashed out my 401K and went all in. No investors. No guarantees. Just belief, sacrifice, and relentless vision.
💡 What is .io?
✅ A business tool trainers actually need.
✅ Scheduling, client management & automation—all in one.
✅ A platform designed to help trainers scale, not burn out.
For two years, we built. I earned a full scholarship to UCLA Anderson, used it to incubate .io, and met my co-founder .allday—the genius engineer who helped scale Calendly. We won awards, joined accelerators, and kept pushing forward when no one else believed in us.
And now? The wait is almost over. 🚀
Trainers, coaches, fitness creators—this is for YOU.
