Our story

The vision behind FYT

How frustration turned into an app — for everyone who doesn't want to train alone.

How it all began

Sound familiar? You want to play tennis, but your buddy has no time. You're looking for someone for a mountain bike ride, but nobody in your circle rides at your level. You'd love to run regularly — but alone, the motivation just isn't there.

We know that feeling all too well. Andreas Eizinger and Christopher Bachleitner met through sport, on the football pitch. It quickly became clear: with the right people you stick with it, and moving is simply more fun. What's a given in a club is almost completely missing in everyday sport.

That idea became FYT. Andreas brings the technical side: he studied computer science and business informatics and builds the app. Christopher knows sport from the inside, from sports science to club life, and knows how to bring people, clubs and communities together. Two perspectives, one goal: that nobody has to train alone who doesn't want to.

"Sport connects. FYT brings you together."

The Solution

The solution: FYT

FYT – Find Your Training Buddy. The app that brings you together with people at your level. Tennis tomorrow morning or a running loop every Tuesday — both work.

Over 150 sports, each with its own level. Active together first, in touch after: no cold start with strangers, no mass requests, no commitments nobody keeps.

The team

Andreas Eizinger

Founder & Owner

Salzburg, Austria

Sport is as much a part of my life as tinkering with good ideas. I studied computer science and business informatics in Linz and build FYT from the backend to the app. As founder, I'm responsible for strategy, product and technology, and I make sure everything runs. Off the clock you'll find me running, cycling, on the football pitch, playing padel or hiking.

I know sport from both sides: as an active athlete and through my sports science studies in Salzburg. At FYT I'm responsible for marketing, growth and partnerships, bringing people, clubs and communities together. Off the clock you'll find me on the football pitch, playing padel, in the water or on a stand-up paddle board.
