Absorb reads the race's own page, works out what your training can and can't cover, and turns it into a stop-by-stop plan. It refuses to invent the parts it doesn't know.
It reads the race page so you don't have to
Sub-pages, embedded scripts, the PDF nobody has opened since 2019, the course map that's a photograph of a printout. Out comes your aid-station list: distances, cutoffs, crew access, drop bags.
If it isn't written on the page, Absorb deletes it rather than guess. "The page did not say" is a real answer here.
Then it plans the race against what you've actually run
Every climb gets one question: have you run this before?
Where you have, Absorb uses your own demonstrated pace on that terrain at that gradient. Where you haven't, it says so and widens the range.
Push the effort slider on terrain you've never run and almost nothing happens
You can't plan a fantasy. On ground where you've demonstrated no ceiling, Absorb barely lets the projection move.
The philosophy, expressed as arithmetic rather than a disclaimer.
A range, and the odds you don't finish
Four rungs from a strong day to an almost certain one, with the chance of a DNF reported on its own rather than buried inside an optimistic number.
Clipped to the cutoff, so you never read "95% done by 31 hours" on a 30-hour race.
Fuelling per stop, not per hour
What you take on at kilometre 62, how long you mean to stand there, and what somebody needs to be holding when you arrive.
Your reminders come back out on your watch
Drop fuel marks onto the course profile, re-download your GPX, and they arrive as alerts mid-race, exactly where you put them. The mark's name is the alert text, because that's the field a watch displays.
The plan packs the bags for you
Pick what you're carrying from a library of real products with each maker's own published figures, or name your own. One tap turns the fuelling plan into a bag per stop, on the list your crew are reading.
It counts what goes in the bag. It doesn't tell you what to eat, and it never asks you to weigh anything.
Then the race becomes evidence
A few minutes of rundown afterwards, and every note you make on a leg feeds the pattern engine. The next projection starts from what actually happened.
