The story
Braylin Byrd (Texas Tech) and Christian Rac (Texas Southern) are Division I track athletes who built an audience of 150K+ combined followers sharing their training content, then used Rork - with zero coding experience - to build 3AK Track, an all-in-one running and training app with AI-powered stride analysis, smart calorie tracking, and a built-in AI coach. The app hit $10,000 in revenue in its first month and was doing $17,460 in the trailing 28 days as of the case study; they also run a companion Shopify store selling training programs.

Evidence status applies to each supported claim, not the source as a whole, and does not imply an audit. A topic is shown as verified when at least one qualified source supports that topic at the verified level; founder/company-reported claims remain labeled separately. Observation dates show when AgenticArtists checked a source, not when the underlying claim necessarily became true.
