What is TOMO?
TOMO is a voice-first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training journal for iPhone. After class you talk for about 90 seconds; TOMO transcribes it with a BJJ-tuned vocabulary and turns it into a structured session with techniques, rounds, submissions and notes. Each week it writes a debrief from your own logged sessions, and its Study tab picks technique videos that target the gaps in your training. TOMO is built by Assembly Labs, LLC.
When will TOMO be on the App Store?
Soon. TOMO has been submitted to Apple and is in private beta on TestFlight while review finishes. Join the beta today and you lock in the Founding Tester deal before launch.
What's the Founding Tester deal?
Free now on TestFlight. Active testers, the people who log sessions and send feedback, get six months of Pro free when TOMO launches on the App Store, then keep a founding rate locked for life at a fraction of the standard subscription.
Does TOMO replace my coach?
No. TOMO is a training journal that pays attention. It remembers what you logged, names the patterns you cannot see from inside your own training, and points you at what to drill. Your coach still knows your game better than any app, and nothing in TOMO replaces mat time. If something hurts, see a clinician.
Does it adapt to me, or is it one-size-fits-all?
It adapts. At sign-up TOMO learns your belt, your age, your goals and how often you train. Then it reads every session you log on top of that. Your weekly debriefs and what it tells you to drill are shaped around all of it. The guidance is yours, built from your own training, not a generic curriculum.
How does the coaching change with my belt?
A white-belt plateau and a brown-belt plateau are different problems, so TOMO treats them differently. White belt: consistency and surviving, building the habit and showing you you're improving even on the nights you get tapped. Blue belt: developing your game and plugging the holes that keep catching you. Purple belt: connecting techniques into systems and sharpening what already works. Brown belt: refinement and depth, the small details that separate good from dangerous. As you progress, what TOMO emphasizes progresses with you.
I'm an older grappler. Is TOMO built for me?
Especially. TOMO factors in your age, so the emphasis leans toward the long game: realistic frequency, recovery, and the patterns that wear practitioners down, most of which show up at Tuesday-night open mat rather than in competition. The goal is still rolling in decades. TOMO helps you read your own training patterns and adjust before they become a problem.
How does TOMO bring value to women on the mat?
By adapting to you specifically, your game, your goals, your belt, instead of a generic curriculum built around bigger, stronger training partners. Your record is private by default (no one at your gym sees it), and TOMO turns the ambiguous feedback of a session into a clear signal you own and can act on. Your progress, measured on your terms.
Do I need an iPhone?
Yes. TOMO runs on iPhone with iOS 16 or later, distributed through Apple TestFlight during the beta. Android isn't supported yet.
Is my training data private?
Yes. Your sessions, recordings, notes and stats are visible only to you. Nobody else at your gym has access, including your training partners and your instructor. Recordings live in a private bucket, and you can delete your account and all of its data from inside the app. The full policy is at traintomo.com/privacy.
Can I type instead of talk?
Yes. Voice is the fast path, and typing is always available as a fallback. Every field TOMO fills in is editable before you save.
How much time does it take after class?
About 90 seconds. You talk through your session naturally and TOMO handles the rest. It is designed for when you're exhausted and just want to get to your car.
