Jobi Cheriyan

Founder & Builder · Brightscale Labs Limited

Background

Jobi Cheriyan is the founder of FitMetricLab and runs the platform out of Brightscale Labs Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. His focus is the technical foundation of the site — making sure every calculator loads fast, runs locally in your browser without sending personal data anywhere, and stays reliable across devices.

Jobi’s engineering background spans modern web development (JavaScript, React, and the Astro framework that powers FitMetricLab), workflow automation in Python, and cloud infrastructure on Cloudflare. The architecture goal is simple: keep the tools genuinely useful for everyday people without compromising on speed or privacy — the calculators run client-side, with no server round-trips and no tracking of the numbers you enter.

On the editorial side, Jobi sets the standard that every calculator on FitMetricLab must show its working, name its formula, cite its primary source, and avoid the prescriptive or salesy language that fitness sites often slip into. The site exists to help people understand the numbers behind their training and health metrics — not to sell them anything.

FitMetricLab is operated by Brightscale Labs Limited (Company No. 16990009). The platform is not a medical, nutritional, or coaching provider — every tool is explicitly educational, and personal health or training decisions should be discussed with a qualified professional.

Add to Home Screen

Safari installs apps from the Share menu rather than a prompt:

  1. Tap Share in the browser bar.
  2. Scroll to Add to Home Screen.
  3. Tap Add.

Your browser installs apps from its own menu:

  1. Open the browser menu ( or ···).
  2. Choose Install app, or Add to Home screen.
  3. Confirm.

Some browsers only offer this after a visit or two, and a few do not support it at all.

Safari on macOS adds apps to the Dock rather than prompting:

  1. Open the File menu.
  2. Choose Add to Dock.
  3. Confirm the name, then click Add.

Add to Dock arrived in Safari 17 (macOS Sonoma). On earlier versions the option is not present.

It opens without browser chrome and keeps working with no connection. Nothing you enter ever leaves the device.
