Getting better answers from Coachy

Coachy is an AI assistant that answers questions about your athletes from their real data, and only their real data. Here is how it works and how to ask it good questions.

Coachy turns a question in plain English into an answer grounded in your athletes' actual metrics. It is not a general chatbot guessing from training data; every answer is fetched live from the same numbers on your roster, which means it does not invent figures it cannot see.

What it can do

  • Pull a single metric over a window of time (recovery, HRV, RHR, sleep, strain, respiratory rate and more), defaulting to the last 14 days and reaching back up to a year.
  • Compare and rank your squad on recovery, HRV, RHR, sleep, or strain to find who needs attention.
  • Summarise current alerts and give a team overview.
  • Explain what a chart or metric means, and point you to the privacy policy.

It respects what athletes share

Coachy is permission-aware and fails closed. It can only see the categories an athlete has chosen to share with you. Ask about data an athlete has kept private and it will tell you plainly that they have not opted in, rather than guessing or leaking. Coaches can ask about their roster; an athlete using Coachy only ever sees their own data.

Ask sharp questions. Name the athlete, give a timeframe, and ask one thing at a time. "How has Maria's HRV trended over the last 30 days?" beats "how is everyone doing?"

Tips for good answers

  • Be specific about the window: "this week", "last 30 days", "since the 1st".
  • To triage, ask it to rank: "who are my five lowest-recovery athletes this week?"
  • Keep each message short and focused; it works best one clear question at a time.
  • If an answer looks thin, the data may simply not be shared, or there may be too few days synced yet.
