SOUNDGYM

Based in Seoul, South Korea, and founded in 2019 by CEO Lee Mi-Rim, SOUNDGYM provides a platform for fitness workouts and training, as well as for sharing exercise tips through audio content. In January 2020, SOUNDGYM raised venture funding from investor Naver D2 Startup Factory. SOUNDGYM’s audio fitness application provides audio content optimization through smartphones, artificial intelligence (AI) speakers, and smartwatches for fitness activities such as running, homework, stretching, pilates, elliptical, and more. The platform enables users to select training plans depending on the location, necessary type of training, activity, or trainer, and listen to audio-based directions to follow the training programmes.

The business offers businesses and employees tailored workout programmes. The firm also offers a management system for monitoring and managing usage history and employee status. The company also sells essentials for exercising on its website, including mats, starter packages for home training, rollers, and more.   The company generates revenue through its monthly subscription, which costs KRW 8900 per employee per month.
