At Liftoff, we’re redefining fitness motivation through game design. Our mobile app turns workouts into a gamified experience, ranking lifts like a video game, rewarding progress with quests, streaks, and unlockable content. With over 1 million users and a 4.9 App Store rating, we’re building a fitness ecosystem that feels more like leveling up your character than logging reps.
We move fast, build fast, and learn even faster. If you’re passionate about UI/UX, characters, and bringing products to life through beautiful visuals and animations, read on.
