How Vimo works

From cap to first length in under a minute.

  1. Put Vimo under your cap

    Slim, light and unsinkable - you forget it is there

  2. Pick a program

    Tempo, Interval, Pace and more - straight on the OLED

  3. Swim to the rhythm

    Hear it, feel it or see it - your choice of cue

  4. Adjust mid-set

    Two buttons, no stopping - back on pace in seconds

  5. Update over Bluetooth

    New features land over the air - it keeps getting better

More than a beeper

A programmable platform, not a one-trick timer.

  • OLED display

    Readable in any light, above or below the surface

  • Your choice of cue

    Sound, vibration or LED - whatever cuts through in the water

  • Upgradable

    Firmware updates over Bluetooth - it gets better after you buy it

  • Unsinkable

    Pool-proof, and it floats if it slips out of your hand

  • ANT+ and training-data sync: on the roadmap - see the roadmap

Real-time rhythm training works

In a 2025 peer-reviewed study (Frontiers in Sports and Active Living), swimmers locked in a new pace after one session - and held it 10+ days later.

1 session

was enough to adapt to a new training pace, cutting pacing error from ~3 s to under 1 s per 100 m

10+ days

of pace retention after training ended - swum with no device at all

2 days

of classic coach-at-the-wall feedback brought no significant progress

Where Vimo swims

From Kraków to pools and open water across Europe - and counting.

what you buy is what you get

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.
