Put a wind tunnel in your pocket.
AiRO
If you are a cyclist, 90% of your resistance is aerodynamic drag. Two thirds is your position.
If you care about going fast, your position matters as much as your power output.
Optimize your riding position, 95% cheaper than traditional testing, using cutting-edge CFD technology.
IT IS TIME TO GET AiRO
-
Getting AiRO is easy:
Create your three-dimensional Digital Aero Twin from photos and a few measurements.
Replicate your position in AiRO using sliders and image overlays.
Make changes and simulate the drag using cloud based high-performance computers. Get results in minutes and for less than $10 per simulation.
AiRO runs on all devices: Phones, iPads, Mac and PC. Simply access it from the browser or install it on your device.
-
The simulation approach is based on peer reviewed academic literature, that has shown excellent correlations to wind tunnel test.
From there we tuned our approach to retain accuracy while increasing simulation speeds and reducing cost.
We are using the most powerful high performance computers available on the open market, allowing us to accurately simulate the airflow within around five minutes.
We validated our own approach against wind tunnel tests and will continue to drive forward accuracy, affordability and ease of use.

Digital Aero Twin Technology was funded by an US Olympic Team Technology & Innovation Grant to help Team USA gain a competitive edge. It is in use with multiple National Governing Bodies.
AiRO is now becoming available to the general public - Enabling you to use the same cutting edge technology.
10% of all profits from AiRO go back to the US Olympic Committee or one of it’s NGBs, funding the next round of game changing innovation.

Ingmar Jungnickel :
Ingmar spent nine years leading the aerodynamics and futures innovation teams at Specialized before starting Inspire Gold. Was awarded the 2018 US Olympic Team Coach of The Year - Sports Science (Doc Counsilman) award for his work with the US Speedskating National Team.
Dr. Matt Williams:
Matt is a former lead CFD engineer at McLaren Racing and Principle Aerodynamicist at McLaren Applied Technologies. He brings almost two decades of experience in high performance flow simulation.
Konstantin Usachev:
Konstantin is a former lead developer at a major gaming studio. He brings extensive software development experience and know-how for all the gaming technologies we repurposed to make AiRO a reality.
Validated in the Wind Tunnel
AiRO is the result of more than a quarter century combined experience in Formula One and WorldTour cycling. The approach is based on peer-reviewed, academic literature and the results have been validated against wind tunnel tests, where it showed excellent correlation.
As compute gets faster and cheaper, Inspire Gold will continue to refine and improve the algorithms.

Used by the Fastest Athletes in the World
AiRO was developed with funding from an US Olympic Committee Technology & Innovation Grant and is in use by some of the fastest athletes in the world.
Ten percent of profits support the US Olympic Team or one of its NGBs in their quest for Milan Cortina 26 and LA28.
