COMPARISON
RaceChrono logs it. ApexIngest coaches it. The app that turns lap times into corner-by-corner improvement.
RaceChrono
£15
Mobile app for GPS lap timing using phone sensors or external Bluetooth GPS. One-off purchase, widely used at track days.
ApexIngest
£9
Analysis SaaS for motorcycle telemetry. Imports RaceChrono CSV, adds coaching, setup tracking, coach mode, and lap overlays.
RaceChrono Pro is a one-off £15 app purchase. ApexIngest is £9/month. Different model — RaceChrono wins on the lowest barrier to entry.
Neither product is a hardware logger. RaceChrono uses your phone GPS or a paired Bluetooth receiver; ApexIngest is software-only. Bring whatever logger you already have.
ApexIngest imports RaceChrono, RaceBox, AiM, MoTeC, Harry's LapTimer, TrackAddict, Starlane and generic CSVs. RaceChrono's analysis stays inside the app.
ApexIngest analyses every corner, identifies your slowest one with a time delta vs your best lap, and turns that into a structured drill plan. RaceChrono shows lap times and a trace — coaching you have to do yourself.
ApexIngest runs an LLM coaching pass on each uploaded session and maintains a rolling rider profile across the season. RaceChrono has no coaching layer.
ApexIngest logs your suspension and tyre setup per session and diffs it against your previous visits to the same track. RaceChrono doesn't track bike setup.
ApexIngest has multi-rider team dashboards for instructors and clubs. Coaches can author plans per rider per track. RaceChrono is single-user.
ApexIngest overlays any two laps from any session with a per-corner delta. RaceChrono has basic video overlay but no web-based delta chart.
RaceChrono's live lap timing and predictive split readout on your phone screen is hard to beat for simplicity at the pitlane. ApexIngest is post-session analysis.
RaceChrono Pro is the easiest way to start timing laps — install it, ride, done. That's genuinely valuable. ApexIngest picks up where it stops: import your RaceChrono CSV and the session becomes corner coaching, setup tracking, lean angle visualisation, and a coach-ready dashboard. They're not rivals; they're sequentially useful.
Already running RaceChrono? Export the CSV from the app and import it into ApexIngest in one click. You'll see corner-by-corner deltas, AI coaching notes, and setup tracking within minutes — no new hardware, no new logger, just the analysis layer your RaceChrono data has been missing.
From £9/month. Works with RaceBox, AiM, MoTeC, Starlane, RaceChrono, and more. Join the waitlist for early access.
