RepDB is a one-time-purchase exercise dataset for developers building fitness and workout apps โ not a subscription, not a rate-limited API. You download the data once and own it: JSON (and SQLite on the higher tier), WebP images, and full EN/DE/ES translations, with no per-request billing and no dependency on our servers staying up.
A free tier includes 400 exercises with flat-style 512ร512 images, attribution-licensed for commercial in-app use. The Starter tier ($199) adds the full catalog in classic white-background style. Standard ($399) adds transparent 1024px images, looping animations, exercise relations (similar/progressions/regressions), workout templates, and embeddings โ exclusive to that tier.
Every exercise includes muscle-group highlighting, equipment/muscle icons, MET values, and safety/goal tags. Compared to GIF- or JPG-based competitor APIs, RepDB images are transparent WebP with no watermarks, so they drop into any app UI without a white box around them.

Flutter (iOS & Android), REST APIs, and smartwatch APIs (Garmin, Coros, etc.).
Runnify's answer
Runnify combines science-based running coaching with the flexibility of modern technology. Instead of offering generic plans, every training program is tailored to the runnerโs current fitness level, goal, available training days, and progress.
Every workout includes guided warm-up, the main session, and cool-down routines, while strength, mobility, and running technique sessions are integrated into the training plan. Runnify also syncs with leading sports watches, making it easy to follow structured workouts wherever you train.
RepDB's answer:
RepDB is sold as a one-time download, not a metered API โ you own the JSON/SQLite data and WebP images outright, with no rate limits, no per-request billing, and no risk of the vendor cutting off access. It's also the only dataset in this space with EN/DE/ES translations, transparent (alpha-channel) images with no watermark, muscle-group highlighting, safety/goal tags, and looping animations on the higher tier.
Runnify's answer
Weโre currently focused on individual runners rather than enterprise customers.
Thousands of runners use Runnify to prepare for races ranging from their first 5K to the marathon. Our community includes beginners, recreational runners, and athletes looking to improve their personal bests under the guidance of Olympian coach Daniel Andรบjar.
Runnify's answer
Most running apps either generate plans automatically or offer static training schedules.
Runnify is different because it focuses on personalized progression designed by experienced running coaches. Whether youโre preparing for your first 5K or trying to set a new marathon personal best, your plan adapts to your goal and fitness level instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all schedule.
Unlike many competitors, Runnify also includes strength training, mobility, running drills, guided warm-ups, cool-downs, progress tracking, and structured workouts that can be sent directly to compatible sports watches.
RepDB's answer:
Most alternatives are subscription APIs โ you pay monthly, you're capped on requests, and ExerciseDB's terms of use explicitly forbid caching or storing the data at all, so every image render is a live paid API call. RepDB is the opposite: pay once, download the files, self-host with zero ongoing dependency. It's also the only option offering true DE/ES localization and transparent images instead of a white box behind every exercise.
Runnify's answer
Runnify is designed for recreational runners of all abilities.
Our users range from complete beginners training for their first 5K to experienced runners preparing for 10K, half marathon, or marathon races and aiming to improve their personal bests.
Itโs ideal for runners who want expert guidance without hiring a personal coach.
RepDB's answer:
Solo developers and small teams building fitness or workout-tracking apps (iOS, Android, web) who need licensed exercise images and structured exercise data, but don't want to build their own media pipeline or depend on a rate-limited third-party API.
Runnify's answer
Runnify was created by runners who believed personalized coaching should be accessible to everyone.
The project was developed together with Olympian and professional running coach Daniel Andรบjar, combining years of coaching experience with modern technology. Our mission is simple: help every runner train smarter, avoid injuries, and enjoy consistent progress, regardless of experience or performance level.
RepDB's answer:
RepDB grew out of a consumer workout app its creator was building solo. Sourcing exercise images and data meant either paying for a subscription API with usage caps and no caching rights, or producing everything from scratch. The illustrated, multi-language dataset was built for us first, then split out as its own product once it became clear other indie developers had the same problem and preferred to buy the data outright rather than rent it through an API.
