Physiological and mental metrics combined into one readiness score so you guide with data, not gut feeling
Grounded in sports-medical and sports-psychological science.
How an athlete feels tells another part.
Context — work, sleep, cognitive load —
tells the rest.
Those three rarely come together
at the right moment.
Coaches guess. Athletes push through.
Or they hold back when they could go.
That's the problem NØRVE solves.
Physiology is the starting point. Behaviour, context and cognitive load complete the picture.
NØRVE gives coach and athlete a shared language. Not more data — more understanding.
No list of parameters. One recommendation. Built for the moment, not the archive.
Your athletes. Their readiness. Every morning.
NØRVE coaches the context.
One dashboard. Every athlete. Daily insight into who is ready, who needs attention — and why. The conversation you needed, before it was too late.
NØRVE learns how it responds.
Not every signal is visible. NØRVE reads the full picture — physiology, daily life, mental state — and reflects it back. So you and your coach can make better decisions together.
No hidden fees. Pay only for the active athletes you coach.
One month free when billed annually
Pricing applies during the pilot phase and may change afterwards.
Before, I had to check multiple apps and messages to get a complete picture. Now I see at a glance who needs extra attention — and I can spend my time coaching instead of searching.

The best part is that NØRVE always explains why. Not just 'rest today' — but the reason behind it. That gives me more confidence in its advice than other apps that only show a score. It feels like NØRVE understands my body better than my wearables do — thanks to the open questions it asks.

As a 400m and 800m runner, my sessions are often gruelling. NØRVE is ideal for me because it lets my coach see, objectively, how I'm doing physically and mentally. On top of that, the open text field is a great daily outlet to get things off my chest.

Two athletes can show the same HRV, the same sleep score and the same training load, and still need a different session. One has had a quiet week; the other is in the middle of exams or working towards a deadline. On paper they're equally fit — in practice they aren't. Research into mental fatigue shows that cognitive load measurably reduces endurance performance: the same effort feels harder, even when the body has recovered. That's why NØRVE weighs how an athlete feels mentally — motivation, stress, cognitive load — alongside the objective data from wearables, and always shows the reasoning behind its recommendation. Physiology is the starting point; the head completes the picture.
We integrate with intervals.icu, and we support any wearable that intervals.icu supports — including Garmin, Wahoo, COROS, Polar, Suunto and Apple Watch. A free intervals.icu account is all you need for NØRVE, though they do offer paid plans if you'd like to support them.
Not really. NØRVE's strength is combining objective data from wearables with the subjective data athletes log in their daily check-ins. Without the wearable data, the picture NØRVE can build becomes far more limited.
Not really. NØRVE doesn't help you plan a training block from scratch — for example, "I want to run a marathon in six months, what and how should I train?" What it does do is recommend how to adjust or tweak the sessions you've already planned, based on an athlete's mental state and training load.
NØRVE is built primarily for coaches, to help them monitor multiple athletes at once. Are you an individual athlete without a coach? Get in touch — request access and we'll see how we can help.
NØRVE currently targets endurance sports — running, cycling and swimming. If you coach athletes in other sports (for example fitness), get in touch and we'll see how we can help.
Yes. When billed annually you get one month free: you pay for 11 months and get 12.
NØRVE uses Creem as its Merchant of Record. Creem handles billing on our behalf, which lets us support payments from coaches worldwide and issue correct, locally compliant tax invoices.
You can cancel directly from the NØRVE dashboard, or from your own Creem dashboard.
Yes. Just make sure to enter your company details at checkout, and a correct tax invoice will be issued.
NØRVE is pronounced /nɝːv/ — like the English word "nerve".
Yes. You can download your personal data at any time from your profile in NØRVE, as a single file. It contains your own information, such as your profile, check-in answers, reports and synced training data. This export is in line with your right of access and data portability under the GDPR.
The data belongs to the athlete, not to the coach. It stays with the athlete's account, so nothing is lost when they change coach. The previous coach loses access as soon as the athlete is no longer linked to them, and a new coach can see the athlete's data once they are linked. Answers that an athlete has chosen not to share with their coach stay private either way.

Living the balance between demanding studies and serious training showed him how much readiness depends on more than physiology alone. He is the brains behind NØRVE: the idea, the model and the sports-science thinking that turn daily check-ins into clear decisions for coaches.
