Case Study: Inspire Fitness achieves a full-cycle go-to-market in 6 months with Esper

Esper’s Android expertise takes Inspire Fitness digital

Inspire Fitness turned to Esper when its connected fitness app and digital experience were falling short, and the company lacked the in-house Android expertise needed to bring its equipment online. The challenge was compounded by pandemic-era supply chain issues, multiple hardware requirements across cardio equipment, and the need to enroll devices before shipping to retailers.

Esper provided an end-to-end Android platform and ongoing development support, including Esper Foundation for Android, cloud-based device enrollment, OTA updates, remote support, and coordination with ODMs. As a result, Inspire Fitness launched its connected fitness solution in six months, achieved 30% operational cost savings, improved hardware longevity, and was able to test, configure, and manage devices at scale with better customer experience.
