Each observation is tied to a frame, so the person reviewing it can see exactly what was noted.
Heel strike, double support, single-leg support and toe-off, logged with timestamps.
Step and stride times are estimated from the frames, with the sampling precision shown.
Compare front, side and back views and note asymmetries, frame by frame.
How it looks
Illustrative findings built from frames of public CC BY and US federal videos. Product captures from the first live runs replace these.
Questions to ask
Real questions from our live-examples corpus, each paired with a public video. Results are published as Docsie produces them.

Common questions
Q: Can I do a gait analysis from a phone video?
A: Yes, for observation. A steady side view of several strides, with the feet in frame, works best. Higher frame rates give more precise timing.
Q: Is this a medical diagnosis?
A: No. Docsie reports observations with frames. Interpretation belongs to a qualified clinician or coach.
Q: What frame rate do I need?
A: Standard 30 fps works for phases. 60 fps or slow motion makes step timing more precise, and the result states its precision.
Q: Can it compare two pairs of shoes or two sessions?
A: Yes. Analyze both videos with the same question and compare the observations side by side.
Q: Can it check posture?
A: Yes, from front, side and back views. It notes what is visible, such as alignment and asymmetry, and doesn't diagnose.
Q: How long can a video be?
A: Up to 40 minutes per video. Longer recordings are split, and the findings are merged onto one timeline.
Q: Where does my footage go?
A: Use Docsie's cloud, or deploy Docsie on your own infrastructure so footage stays inside your network.
