GPS Video Overlay
Overlay ride telemetry directly on your cycling video. Trim the clip, sync to the moment your computer started, and render locally in your browser.

Cycling video editor
Add GPS, speed, power, heart-rate, route, and elevation overlays to ride videos
TrainCraft turns a cycling video and a matching FIT, GPX, or TCX activity file into an edited ride clip with telemetry overlays. Use it for action-camera footage, climb recaps, race videos, route previews, and social clips that need real cycling data instead of manual captions.
Telemetry overlays
Show speed, power, heart rate, distance, route position, and elevation profile when the activity file includes those streams.
Video sync and framing
Trim the clip, crop or rotate footage, align the activity timeline, and export wide, square, portrait, or vertical versions.
Browser workflow
Prepare short cycling video overlays directly in the web tool with verified export options and no separate desktop editor.
Looking for a Garmin VIRB Edit or DashWare alternative?
The two most popular free telemetry overlay editors — Garmin VIRB Edit and GoPro DashWare — are no longer maintained. For cycling footage, this tool covers the same core workflow in the browser: load a ride file (FIT, GPX, or TCX), sync it with your video, pick telemetry layers, and export. No desktop install, works on current operating systems.
How it works
- 1Upload a cycling video from an action camera or phone.
- 2Upload a matching FIT, GPX, or TCX ride file, or choose a synced activity when available.
- 3Sync the video with the activity timeline and trim the clip.
- 4Choose telemetry layers such as speed, power, heart rate, route map, and elevation profile.
- 5Export the finished cycling video overlay from the browser.
GPS video overlay FAQ
What activity files can I use for cycling video overlays?
The editor accepts FIT, GPX, and TCX activity files, including exports from common cycling computers and training platforms.
Is this an alternative to Garmin VIRB Edit or DashWare?
Yes, for cycling videos. Garmin VIRB Edit and GoPro DashWare are no longer maintained, and this browser-based editor covers their core cycling use case: syncing a FIT, GPX, or TCX file with footage and rendering speed, power, heart-rate, route, and elevation overlays — without installing desktop software.
Can I add speed, power, heart rate, route, and elevation data?
Yes. The overlay editor can render speed, power, distance, heart-rate, route map, and elevation profile layers when those data streams exist in the activity file.
Does the video render on TrainCraft servers?
The editor is designed to render locally in the browser after the export options are verified, so short cycling clips can be prepared without uploading the final render to a public video service.
Can I make vertical cycling videos for social platforms?
Yes. The tool includes aspect ratio controls for wide, square, portrait, and vertical cycling video exports.
