GPS Video Overlay
Add ride telemetry to your cycling video. Trim and sync the clip, customize the overlay, and export a finished video.
Add activity data to preview telemetry
Styles and layers use metrics from a FIT, GPX, TCX, or synced activity. Add one to see changes in the preview.
Cycling GPS video overlay editor
Create cycling videos and transparent overlays from real ride data
TrainCraft combines a synced activity or FIT, GPX, or TCX file with cycling-focused telemetry styles. Add the data directly to action-camera or phone footage, or export a transparent ProRes 4444 MOV overlay for a professional video editor.
Ride data on the clip
Show speed, power, heart rate, distance, route position, grade, and elevation when the selected activity includes those streams.
Synced ride or file upload
Choose a synced activity from your account or upload FIT, GPX, or TCX. Use auto-sync first, then adjust the timeline if the timestamps are off.
Export for the place it will live
Export a finished wide, square, portrait, or vertical video, or create a transparent ProRes 4444 MOV overlay for further editing.
GPS video overlay workflows

Add speed, power, heart rate, route, elevation, and GPS overlays to cycling videos. Use a synced ride or upload FIT, GPX, or TCX, auto-sync it with the clip, and export from the browser.
Cycling video data overlay
Add speed, power, heart-rate, distance, route map, elevation, and GPS data overlays to cycling videos using FIT, GPX, or TCX ride files.
FIT file video overlay
Use a FIT activity file to add cycling telemetry overlays to ride videos, including speed, power, heart rate, route, and elevation.
Action camera cycling overlay
Add cycling telemetry overlays to action-camera videos from GoPro, DJI, Insta360, phone, or any camera using a matching FIT, GPX, or TCX ride file.
DashWare alternative for cycling
A browser-based DashWare alternative for cycling videos. Sync FIT, GPX, or TCX files with ride footage and add speed, power, GPS, route, and elevation overlays.
Garmin VIRB Edit alternative
A browser-based Garmin VIRB Edit alternative for cycling overlays. Add GPS, speed, power, route, heart-rate, and elevation data from FIT, GPX, or TCX files.
Compatible with Strava
Put your Strava ride data on video: speed, power, heart rate, route, and elevation. Pick a synced Strava or Garmin ride, or upload a FIT, GPX, or TCX file.
GoPro cycling overlays
Add GPS, speed, power, and heart-rate overlays to GoPro cycling footage in the browser. Works with every HERO model — including HERO 12, which has no built-in GPS.
DJI Osmo Action overlays
Add GPS, speed, power, and heart-rate overlays to DJI Osmo Action cycling footage without the GPS remote. Telemetry comes from your FIT, GPX, or TCX ride file.
Insta360 cycling overlays
Add GPS, speed, power, and heart-rate overlays to Insta360 cycling footage without the GPS remote. Sync your FIT, GPX, or TCX ride file with the reframed clip.
TrainCraft vs traditional telemetry overlay tools
TrainCraft is built around cycling activity data and a browser workflow: use a synced ride or FIT, GPX, or TCX, check automatic timeline alignment, choose cycling-specific metrics and styles, then export either a finished video or a transparent editing asset. Other overlay tools may require a desktop installation, manual data profiles, or a separate compositing workflow.
How it works
- 1Choose a finished video or an editor-ready transparent overlay as the result.
- 2Choose a synced activity or upload the matching FIT, GPX, or TCX ride file.
- 3For a finished video, add the footage and check auto-sync; a transparent overlay does not require source video.
- 4Choose the metrics, visual style, layout, aspect ratio, and export range.
- 5Export the finished cycling video, or download a transparent ProRes 4444 MOV overlay on PRO and AI plans.
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.
How does TrainCraft compare with other telemetry overlay tools?
TrainCraft focuses on cycling and works in the browser. It accepts synced activities or FIT, GPX, and TCX files, supports automatic and manual timeline alignment, and can produce either a finished cycling video or a transparent overlay for further editing.
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.
Can I download a finished video?
Yes. Choose the style, metrics, framing, and aspect ratio, then export a finished cycling clip.
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.
Can I export a transparent GPS overlay for a video editor?
Yes. Preview the telemetry on a transparent canvas for free, choose the activity range and style, then unlock that export once or use PRO or AI to export a ProRes 4444 MOV with alpha.
