Zwift has announced that Personalized Leaderboards are coming to the Zwift Companion app in February 2023, allowing Zwifters to see and analyze their times on Zwift segments.
How Will It Work?

Leaderboards will be accessed via the Zwift Companion app (available for Android and iOS). The leaderboard interface lets you quickly “drill down” by selecting a world, then selecting a route or segment in that world.
The leaderboards can be sorted by season (each year is divided into 3-month seasons: January-March, April-June, July-September, and October-December), so you can track current progress or benchmark your fitness against a previous season.
Scope
The leaderboard data’s promised scope is impressive. Zwift says it will include every segment and route in game. (By our count that’s 187 routes, 31 KQOMs, and 43 sprints).
It’s not just your recent data that will be tracked, either. Leaderboards will give you access to performance data from your entire lifetime on Zwift. A complete picture of your Zwift performance history!
Next Steps
In the future, the Companion app’s Leaderboards feature won’t just show your data – it will also show the performance of other Zwifters! Zwift isn’t sharing the details of exactly how this will work (our guess is they’re working through privacy concerns first) – but we can see a day where Clubs are competing with other Clubs based on leaderboard results.
All the data is there… and Zwifters love a good competition. We’re stoked to see Leaderboards moving forward, as they’re something that has been in the works for years.

One issue with this. I’ve used three trainers during my time on Zwift. First a dumb trainer using zPower, then a wheel-on smart trainer, then a direct drive trainer. Needless to say, my power readings and times got more accurate as I upgraded. Those earlier trainers gave me some really outlandish times (and some badges I think I need to turn back in). So I hope I can choose what period of time will appear on this leaderboard.
I followed your trainer progression in the exact same fashion Bernie! I’ll definitely be excluding those results from early on – only really interested in those from the direct drive smart trainer.
Would be nice to see the start/finish of Strava segments on Zwift, just like the sprints!
Nice!
Imagine if for a points race like WTRL, anyone could add points to their team by getting a personal PR on a segment. So, all members of your team regardless of their race position (dropped from the front group) have a way of continuing to their team’s performance.
This looks pretty great. By “entire lifetime”, does this literally mean your entire history on Zwift (including performances from before this feature launches)? Or does it just mean all performances after the launch of the leaderboards? Screenshot shows times from 2021, so it looks like the former, but hard to tell whether that is real data or just a mockup.
Entire lifetime means entire lifetime. 😁 Full Zwift history.
It’d be nice if they could ignore any times in the Jungle from before the surface switch from tarmac to gravel.
Another trickier asterisk–meetup doping. For quite a while a bug/feature had anyone in a meetup with “keep everyone together” zipping along at 40 kph regardless of effort, even up climbs like Alpe and Ventaux. There are some ridiculous KOM’s in Strava and surely Zwifts data is the source…
They’ve been saving these times since the start? That means it’s even weirder that we still can only get 30 day prs on the Alpe.
This got me thinking. Since we have the times for every segment for all of zwifts lifetime it’d be cool if there was a hack or something that let us use a holoreplay bot at that time just assuming a constant pace over the whole segment. They don’t have the second by second location data like they will for efforts starting late 2022, but an average pace holoreplay would still be very useful and very motivating (even on routes that change from hilly to flat and back etc)!
I would prefer that the on screen leaderboards could be personalised i.e. all time pb , last years pb than using companion app
Yeah, that would IMHO be much more useful, and something that many have wished for a long time. Instead Zwift decides to re-implement features already available on Strava.
As it currently stands Zwift gets to please me by reporting about PB-s on pretty much every ride that I do. But the result is that I don’t care about these PB-s any more, they’re almost meaningless.
I know several people who have recently switched from dumb to smart trainers (or wheel on to direct drive) and have seen drastic performance drops as a result. This all time leaderboard will just be depressing to them.
FINALLY!
excited to see how fit i used to be
Excellent. I’ll be able to forensically track my downfall, rather than it just being an unconfirmed feeling.
Great for a bit of extra motivation though!
Would be nice to have TT vs all bikes possible as obviously only TT bike is a real benchmark at a personal level
This is just wishful thinking, but it would be great if we could get tenths of a second (especially if it is going to include sprints). Zwift obviously has high-resolution timing data (it surfaces on ZwiftPower), and this would be a great place to expose that data.
This is exactly what I am hoping for. Strava is not a good way to see what my best Sprint was (only for average watts). Would like to see my detailed sprint times.
I feel like that’s probably false precision; the margin of error on the best trainers out there is probably more than half a second’s worth of time on a sprint.
This does provide value in addition to what strava does for the following reasons. Strava can’t create segments that are too short, so many sprints are not on strava at all. Several routes etc had their segments created well after the roads were created in zwift. Several of the zwift insider strava segments have been edited which purges the history of the segment. So zwift is the only one that can provide a true full history of these.
sounds good, will the ZC dashboard be updated so we can choose what we see, helpful stuff that you get on bike computers…average speed, average watts, 20 min power? Average wkg would be great for ride leads to silence “this is not the advertized pace folks”
About time! I’m tired of going to Strava for functionality that Zwift could and should be providing.
Would be nice to compare times / watts on each route/segment to the
Any idea when this is happening? February is coming to a close. Thanks in advance!
Watch for news this week!
