The AI Coach is a training assistant that already knows your pack. With every question, it automatically reads a full dossier of your data and answers as precisely as it can: plan, periodization, session analysis, recommendations. It can also act for you (create a goal, schedule sessions, record a weight…). Included in the Plus plan.
What the coach reads (its context)
You do not need to repeat the facts: before answering, the coach receives a dossier built live from your data. The more complete that data is, the more relevant its answers.
In the coach's dossier
- Your pack: each dog (breed, age, sex, weight, disciplines, level) and the date of its last run.
- Your recent runs (last 30 days) and their cumulative volume.
- Your scheduled sessions (days ahead).
- Your upcoming race goals and your active training plan (with its current phase).
- Your recent personal records (PRs) and each dog's recent training load.
- Recent weight per dog, the important health context (injuries, ongoing protocols) and recent AI vet consults.
- Your race calendar (recent past + upcoming) and, if it knows your location, the weather for the coming days.
- Your dog teams, if you have any.
- The time and time zone: it reasons in YOUR local time (“Saturday morning”, “in 2 days”).
Asking a good question
The home screen offers 6 categories of suggestions (planning, training, recovery, competition, nutrition, analysis), each with about ten ready-to-send examples. You can also write freely. Before sending, you pick a target.
Target and phrasing
- Pick the target at the top: “General” (the whole pack), one or more dogs, or a team. That points the answer at the right dogs.
- Ask your question, or tap a suggested example to get started with no friction.
- Be concrete: discipline, distance, deadline, constraints (“get Loki ready for a 5 km bikejoring race in 6 weeks, 3 sessions a week”).
- You can attach a photo (a trail, a piece of terrain): the question adapts to the image automatically.
Tips for better answers
- The more complete your training log and dog profiles are, the more precise the recommendations.
- Name the dog when the question is dog-specific: the “dog” target focuses the context on it.
- Give the goal and the date: the coach calibrates the load against the deadline.
Create a goal → a periodized plan
You can ask the coach to create a goal (a target race: name, discipline, distance, date, optionally a target time and the dogs involved). From there, it can generate a periodized training plan that splits the build-up into phases all the way to race day.
From goal to plan
- Describe your target race to the coach (discipline, distance, date, dog(s)).
- It creates the goal, then proposes or generates a plan structured in phases.
- The classic phases: base (volume), build (intensity), peak (sharpening), taper (easing off before the race), through to race week.
- The plan stays editable: you can have sessions adjusted, rescheduled or cancelled straight from the coach, or from the schedule.
What the coach can do for you
- Create a race goal and the periodized plan that goes with it.
- Schedule, reschedule or cancel sessions.
- Record a weight or a health event (vaccine, deworming, vet visit…).
- It describes load in plain language (no jargon) and sends you to the AI Vet module for any medical question.
Conversation history
Your exchanges are saved on the server and synced across your devices. You find your past conversations from the coach home screen and through the “History” button (with a badge showing how many you have).
Managing your threads
- History: the list of your conversations; a tap reopens a thread to continue it.
- New: starts a blank thread; the old one is archived (still readable).
- Delete: permanently removes the current conversation.
- Photos are never kept in the history (only their preview shows, for the length of the session).
Staying on topic, and latency
The coach stays within dog sports. If a question falls outside that (code, news, recipes…), it says so politely and invites you to rephrase within its field. Also, the very first answer can be slower (the service waking up) — that is normal, the ones after it are fast.
Worth keeping in mind
- The coach is not a vet: for anything medical, it sends you to the AI Vet module.
- It reasons in your time zone: the times it gives you are local.
- An answer that feels too generic? Add context (dog, discipline, goal, distance).
If something goes wrong
- Slow first answer (up to 1–2 min): normal on the first call. The ones after it are faster.
- Generic answer? Give more context (dog, discipline, goal, distance) and pick the right target.
- The coach refuses to answer? Your question is probably off topic: rephrase it within dog sports.
- The coach “does not see” a recent session? Check that it is actually saved (and tagged to the right dog) — it works from your data.
- Cannot find a conversation? Look under “History”: “New” archives the old thread instead of deleting it.
Good to know / abbreviations
- Context (dossier)
- The set of your data the coach reads automatically before answering (pack, runs, plans, health, weather…). You do not have to repeat any of it.
- Target (general / dog(s) / team)
- The focus you pick before sending: the whole pack, one or more dogs, or a team. It steers the answer.
- Prompt / question
- What you ask the coach. The more concrete it is (dog, discipline, distance, deadline), the more useful the answer.
- Goal / target race
- Something to aim for (a race): name, discipline, distance, date and the dogs involved. It sets the heading for the training plan.
- Plan / periodization
- How the build-up is laid out over time, split into phases that raise then ease the load before the race.
- Base phase
- The foundation period: you build volume and endurance, without chasing intensity.
- Build phase
- Stepping up the intensity: you add quality (speed, threshold) on top of the base already laid down.
- Peak phase
- Sharpening: you go for peak form as the race nears, high intensity, controlled volume.
- Taper phase
- Easing off: you cut volume just before the race so you arrive fresh without losing form.
- Race week
- The final stretch before race day: very little load, upkeep and recovery.
- Training load
- How much a dog has been asked to do recently. The coach describes it in plain words (balanced, worth watching, too high…) to adjust the sessions.
- Readiness
- The idea of “form/availability”: how ready a dog is to absorb load. The coach factors it in through recent load and health.
- PR (personal record)
- A dog's best recorded performance over a distance/discipline. The coach uses it to set realistic targets.
- Active plan
- The training plan currently running against a goal. The coach knows which phase you are in.
- Conversation history
- Your exchanges saved on the server and synced across devices, readable and reopenable from the coach home screen.
- AI Vet module
- The dedicated medical module. The coach is not a vet and sends you there for any health question.
