Finally, a proper tracker for your SkiErg sessions
The SkiErg deserves dedicated tracking. Watta captures your PM5 data with a single photo — split time, distance, stroke rate, and calories. Get Effort Scores for every ski erg session, track your progress, and share with your community.
The Problem
SkiErg is the forgotten Concept2 machine
Most fitness apps and rowing communities focus exclusively on the RowErg. SkiErg users are left without dedicated tracking, forcing them to use generic workout logs or spreadsheets.
No way to compare SkiErg sessions meaningfully
Without an intensity metric designed for SkiErg, comparing a 20-minute steady session to a 10-minute interval piece is subjective. Users lack a standardised way to quantify session quality.
SkiErg data is not captured alongside rowing data
Athletes who use both RowErg and SkiErg want their training in one place. Most apps treat them as completely separate activities with no unified view.
How Watta Helps
SkiErg OCR Logging
Photograph your SkiErg PM5 screen and Watta extracts split, distance, time, and stroke rate. The same AI-powered logging that works for rowing, adapted for ski erg.
Unified Erg Dashboard
View your SkiErg, RowErg, and BikeErg workouts in a single feed. Filter by machine type or see everything together. One app for all your Concept2 training.
Effort Score for Ski Erg
Every SkiErg session gets a 0-100 Effort Score. Compare intensity across sessions and machine types to manage your overall training load.
How It Works
Snap your erg screen
Take a photo of your PM5 display after your workout. Gallery upload works too.
AI extracts your data
Watta reads every metric — time, split, distance, stroke rate, heart rate, and calories.
Get your Effort Score
A 0-100 score combining cardiac load, work output, pacing, and economy shows exactly how hard you worked.
