Two ways in
What brings you to the water?
The device is the same. What you need to know about it is not - so pick your path.
For swimmers
You train on your own, in a pool, a lake or the swim leg of a race. You want a pace you can hold and repeat.
- What steady rhythm does to your splits
- Pool, open water and triathlon
- From the parcel to your first length
- What you pay, and how you get it back
For coaches and clubs
You run lanes, squads or a whole club. You need to know how a fleet of devices behaves on deck, and what a kit costs.
- How many devices you drive at once
- Group programming with Vimo Coach
- Charging, storage and handing devices out
- Squad kits, and who to talk to
Your pace. Locked in.
Vimo keeps the rhythm so your head stays in the water and your technique stays intact.

Evidence for the method, not for the product
Real-time rhythm training works
In a 2025 peer-reviewed study (Frontiers in Sports and Active Living), 12 competitive swimmers learned a new training pace in one session with an off-the-shelf waterproof metronome, and 10 days later were still pacing each length more accurately without any device.
cut the average pacing error from about 3.0 s to about 0.8 s over 100 m, and from about 1.0 s to about 0.5 s per 25 m length (12 swimmers, 25 m pool, front crawl)
after the last session, per-length accuracy and lap-to-lap consistency were still better than at baseline, swum with no device. Total 100 m error had drifted back to where it started
of coach-at-the-wall time feedback left per-length accuracy and consistency unchanged in the 12-swimmer comparison group. Only the total 100 m time improved, and only by day two
One rhythm. Every length.

- what you buy is what you get
The €180 is a fully refundable testing deposit, not a purchase price. Return the device within 30 days and every cent comes back. If you want the cheapest proven beeper, the classics are fine tools. If you want a screen you can actually read in the water, a signal you can hear or feel, and a device that improves after purchase, that's why we built Vimo.
