Diorama vs Bevel
Diorama compared with Bevel
Bevel interprets Apple Health data. Diorama uses it to build structured plans and explain each adjustment.
Where Bevel shines
Bevel consolidates Apple Health data into one polished dashboard for recovery, sleep, strain, stress, and nutrition. Its free tracking tier is generous.
Bevel also covers ground Diorama deliberately does not: food logging, a biological-age estimate, and uploading lab records into the app.
Where the paths split
Different scope, different priorities
Diorama uses health data to build and adjust a training plan.
Periodized training plans.
Race plans from 5K to marathon, sprint triathlon to Ironman, plus cycling, swimming, and strength include structured sessions and phase-specific progression.
Reasons shown with each change.
Every score has a plain name and links to what moves it. When guidance changes, Diorama names the relevant context, such as poor sleep or high recent load.
Medications are part of the picture.
Diorama tracks medications HealthKit-first and treats them as context a coach should know, which matters if you train with a real-world health condition.
Fitness-age confidence shown.
Diorama estimates a fitness age from your recent training, sleep, and heart data, with its drivers listed, its confidence stated, and an explicit disclaimer that it is training guidance, not a biological-age or medical measurement.
Privacy as architecture.
Diorama requires no account. Your data lives on your device except for the AI requests you explicitly make, and nothing about those is stored on our servers.
A baseline for every starting point.
Scores emphasize your own trend and establish a baseline when your history is still thin.

Field notes
Common questions
Is Diorama a health dashboard like Bevel?
Diorama tracks sleep, readiness, habits, mood, and medications, then uses that context in structured training plans and explains its adjustments.
Does Diorama track nutrition like Bevel?
No. Diorama focuses on training, recovery, and life context rather than food logging.
Does Diorama have a biological age like Bevel?
Diorama offers a fitness age estimate through its AI coach. It uses recent training, sleep, and heart data, lists its drivers and confidence, and labels the result as training guidance rather than a biological or medical measurement.
Can I upload lab results to Diorama?
Not today. Diorama's approach is to derive a small set of coaching-relevant signals rather than store health records.
Do both apps need an Apple Watch?
Both are built for iPhone and Apple Watch and read Apple Health. Diorama also works with workout data from other sources that write to Apple Health.
