Summary

The connected fitness revolution, sparked by the pandemic, has led to a shift in consumer behavior, with 9 out of 10 adults continuing to work out at home even when gyms reopen. To adapt, Inspire Fitness launched a connected fitness application, but faced challenges in building a digital experience and managing supply chains. Esper, a technology partner with expertise in Android hardware and software, provided the necessary solutions, including a custom operating system, commercial support for application development, and seamless provisioning. With these solutions, Inspire Fitness was able to quickly go to market, save time and money, and maintain an ongoing relationship with Esper for OS and application development, leading to increased user insights, flexible growth, and robust support.
