About Sweatpals
Sweatpals is the community-first fitness platform turning workouts into social experiences. Backed by a16z speedrun, Patron, Kevin Hart, Pear VC, and founders of Instacart and Dreamworks Animations, we connect hundreds of thousands of “Pals,” hosts, and gyms through events, memberships, and social features. We’re still scrappy at heart, but scaling fast.
We believe working out should be joyful, social, and inclusive - not just a solo grind. From run clubs and beach pilates to pickleball leagues and cold plunge socials, Sweatpals turns everyday workouts into meaningful social experiences.
Sweatpals also gives local leaders the tools to grow their fitness communities from side hustles to full-time, even million-dollar businesses. Hosts use our platform to run their business - from ticketing and memberships to marketing tools.
As we scale, growth marketing will play a critical role in fueling top-of-funnel demand. You’ll help us reach more Pals and Hosts, expand city by city, and turn Sweatpals into a habit for millions.
