**By Aviron Active Team · Published March 1, 2022 · Updated April 28, 2025**

Aviron is a gaming-led, connected rowing machine for people with busy lives and limited time who recognize the physical, mental, and emotional importance of fitness.

## Overview

Aviron announced a Series A funding round of $18.5M, using the new funding to expand their team and bring new fitness entertainment content to their connected rowers.

Aviron offers workouts that are time efficient, challenging, and effective, and include the dual benefits of building cognitive and physical strength with workout content that utilizes gaming design and psychology to make workouts fun and even addictive.

## How Is Aviron Unique?

Adding gamified elements to traditional class-based connected fitness platforms is increasingly popular, but the Aviron rower is the only platform and product built from the ground up with gaming elements at its core.

With a team of Unity game developers and a bespoke back end that is able to manage and sync workout data, game data, and user profiles, Aviron can build complex multiplayer video games that use strategy — not just physical exertion — to play and win.

The growing content library includes:
- 14 true video games
- Hundreds of other gamified workout programs
- Encounters with zombies, the Kraken, bugs in mystical worlds, and arcade-inspired Brick Breaker

Variety is key to Aviron's offering, with programs ranging from:
- Group workouts
- Live races
- Virtual rowing destinations
- Pros vs Joes — a category that allows you to put yourself to the test against Olympians and athletes

---

## First to Offer Streaming Integration

Beginning March 1, 2022, Aviron became the first at-home connected rower to integrate streaming entertainment platforms, including:
- Netflix
- Disney+
- Additional streaming platforms scheduled to release in Q2

While streaming, your workout data is still captured, Aviron coins are still earned, and you continue to progress toward your fitness goals.

## Real Games

What makes Aviron's games unique is that they are more than an animated take on a workout program where you achieve points as you hit milestones. Aviron's immersive, fully animated multiplayer games feature zombies, robots, and race cars and require strategy, learning, and eventual skill in order to win.

Throughout the workout journey you:
- Earn achievements
- Rank on leaderboards
- Earn sweat-equity currency that encourages consistent workouts with greater intensity
