About
Aviron Interactive is a Toronto-based connected fitness company manufacturing gamified rowing machines, treadmills, and bikes that combine high-intensity cardio workouts with competitive multiplayer games and immersive entertainment — competing with Peloton by making fitness more engaging through game mechanics (leaderboards, in-workout games, competitive challenges) rather than live instructor-led classes. Founded in 2019 and a Y Combinator W21 graduate, Aviron raised $23.5 million total including an $18.5 million Series A in December 2021 led by Stripes, more than doubling revenue in 2021 with 90+ employees.
