TrailToolbox: Local Sport File Converter
Browser-only conversion and repair for runners' and cyclists' track files
- Problem
- Runners and cyclists accumulate FIT/GPX/TCX files across Garmin, Strava, and other platforms; uploads get rejected across services, activities need merging, and corrupted FIT files won't open. Existing online tools require uploading files containing complete travel records to unknown servers, which feels unsafe.
- Solution
- All parsing and conversion run locally in the browser — no upload, works offline. Supports the FIT/GPX/TCX/KML/GeoJSON conversion matrix preserving heart rate, cadence, and power, plus activity merge/split, corrupted-file repair, and Google Timeline JSON import.
- Users
- Runners, cyclists, hikers, and anyone migrating workout data in bulk
- MVP
- FIT/GPX/TCX three-way conversion preserving sensor fields; merge/split FIT activities; basic corrupted FIT repair; fully local with zero upload; free and no signup
- Revenue
- Free core builds trust; a one-time Pro unlock for batch processing, large files, presets, and a CLI version; affiliate links in cycling/running communities
- Why now
- Wearable and platform ecosystems are increasingly fragmented with steady migration demand; browser-side WASM/JS is now fast enough for a solo maintainer
