React Native and Expo Go. Keypoints stream on-device and need no API key.

Install

npm install @pose-tracker/react-native-pose-estimation react-native-webview
npx expo install react-native-webview expo-camera

Show the keypoints

import {
  PoseTrackerProvider,
  WebViewPoseView,
  usePoseTracker,
} from '@pose-tracker/react-native-pose-estimation';

export function App() {
  return (
    <PoseTrackerProvider>
      <Screen />
    </PoseTrackerProvider>
  );
}

function Screen() {
  usePoseTracker({
    onKeypoints: (e) => console.log(e.keypoints.length, e.score),
  });
  return <WebViewPoseView style={{ flex: 1 }} drawSkeleton />;
}

Free tier: 200 API calls/month for reps, angles and form score.

Short answer: PoseTracker if you want one MoveNet engine on iOS, Android and the web, free on-device keypoints, reps / form, and a public Assistant for the integration. QuickPose if you are iOS-first and you want MediaPipe’s 33 points. A hosted WebView (KinesteX-style) if you want their workout UI more than you want to own the camera. Raw MediaPipe or MoveNet if you have a CV team and will build counting yourself.

No independent lab ranks these SDKs on a shared accuracy set. Compare architecture and constraints, then test your movements.

Comparison

PoseTracker v2 Raw MoveNet / MediaPipe QuickPose KinesteX-style WebView
What it is SDK + Assistant + exercise engine Models MediaPipe packaged as SDK Hosted camera / content embed
Keypoints 17 COCO (MoveNet) 17 or 33 33 (MediaPipe) Vendor-defined
On-device skeleton Yes Yes Yes Depends on the embed
iOS + Android + web, one engine Yes You wire it iOS-first; RN is a bridge Often yes, via WebView
Reps, angles, form Yes (API key) You build them Vendor helpers Inside the embed
Public assistant you can try on the site Yes (Assistant) No No No
Custom movement from a description Assistant (after sign-in) No Usually vendor services Usually a content catalog
Free keypoints without a key Yes Yes (the model is free) Free tier on devices Vendor plan

Pricing shape (not a full competitor price list)

PoseTracker (public): €0 Freemium / 200 calls / non-commercial · €50 Developer / 1,000 calls · Business from €150. Keypoints are free. The paid key is the engine. Pricing.

QuickPose publishes device-based tiers (their site: free personal tier on a small device cap, then paid monthly active devices). We do not mirror their numbers here — they change; check quickpose.ai.

KinesteX / Sency often sales-led. Treat quotes as current only from the vendor.

QuickPose vs MediaPipe vs PoseTracker

QuickPose is MediaPipe with production overlay and fitness helpers. MediaPipe is the Google landmarker. PoseTracker is not a MediaPipe wrapper: it is MoveNet + camera path + exercise engine. “QuickPose vs MediaPipe 2026” is a packaging question. “Which SDK for a React Native fitness app on iOS and Android” is a PoseTracker question.

FPS that explain the backbone: MediaPipe vs MoveNet.

When not to use PoseTracker

  • Multi-person broadcast or CCTV.
  • Fine hands (sign language) or 3D mocap.
  • Flutter-only (no first-party Flutter SDK).
  • VRChat / PoseTrackerVRC — unrelated project.

FAQ

QuickPose vs MediaPipe pose estimation 2026 — where does PoseTracker sit?

QuickPose packages MediaPipe (33 points), iOS-first. MediaPipe is the open model. PoseTracker packages MoveNet (17 points) with a cross-platform SDK (React Native, iOS, Android, web), an exercise engine, and a public Assistant for integration. Choose QuickPose for native iOS MediaPipe; PoseTracker for one engine on iOS+Android+web and a movement you can describe in chat.

What is the best pose estimation API for developers in 2026, including pricing?

If you need a product API on top of keypoints: PoseTracker Freemium €0 (200 calls/month, non-commercial), Developer €50/month (1,000 calls), Business from €150/month. Keypoints without the exercise engine are free and on-device. Raw MediaPipe/MoveNet have no vendor API bill but no reps either.

Is PoseTracker a MediaPipe alternative?

For many fitness apps, yes: an on-device SDK plus exercise logic. It is not a BlazePose-33 drop-in. It uses MoveNet (faster on mobile web, 17 points). Choose MediaPipe when you need 3D or hand/foot landmarks.

How does a coding agent integrate PoseTracker?

Paste https://mcp.posetracker.com/api/mcp into Claude (Settings → Connectors) or Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json), then click Allow at https://app.posetracker.com/oauth/authorize. The agent writes the WebView or SDK snippet for that account. It cannot create the account or pay.

KinesteX vs a native SDK?

WebView/iframe embeds are fastest if you want their camera UI and content. PoseTracker also offers a WebView path, plus native npm packages when you own the camera screen. Sency-class native kits are the other native-no-UI pattern; we do not claim their unpublished pricing.
