Your assistant, ChatGPT and Claude
Your assistant is the AI built into Assistant Coach. It helps you understand client progress faster, write better replies and review workout plans. You can also connect ChatGPT or Claude and ask questions about your coaching data there.
Your assistant and the ChatGPT or Claude connection are for coaches only. Clients don't see the assistant, and can't connect ChatGPT or Claude to their data.
What your assistant does
Your assistant supports the coaching work you already do: spotting longer-term client patterns, reviewing check-ins, and checking plan structure before you send it to a client.
Client trend analysis
Client trend analysis is your assistant's summary of a client's recent progress. It pulls together check-ins, goals, and notes into a single narrative that highlights what's improving, what's stalling, and what may need your attention.
Use it when you want the bigger picture before changing a plan, reviewing a plateau, catching up after time away, or doing a periodic client review.
See Client Trend Analysis for the full workflow.
Check-in reply drafts
When you're reviewing a check-in and need to write a response, you can ask your assistant for a first draft based on the client's check-in, goals, injuries, notes, and your previous writing style.
The draft is a starting point, not a finished response. You can edit it, add personal touches, and save it only when it sounds right.
See Writing Responses for how to use this in practice.
Workout coverage check
The coverage check is your assistant's structural review of a workout plan before you activate it. It looks for body-region coverage, split balance, obvious gaps, repeated stress, and practical programming watchouts.
It does not edit the plan or replace your judgment. Treat it like a second pass that helps you spot things you may want to review before sending the plan.
See Workout Coverage Check for the full workflow.
Connect ChatGPT or Claude to your coaching data
Assistant Coach lets you connect your ChatGPT or Claude account directly to your coaching data, on every plan. Once connected, you can talk to ChatGPT or Claude about your clients' check-ins, training, food logs, weigh-ins, habits and plans. On Free and Starter it reads your demo client, Emma, so you can try it for free; on Pro it reads all your clients.
What this enables
Instead of clicking through dashboards, you can ask questions like:
- "How has Sarah's weight trended over the last 8 weeks?"
- "How close was Sarah to her protein target each day last week?"
- "Summarize David's last 3 check-ins — what's the pattern?"
- "Which clients mentioned sleep issues in their recent check-ins?"
- "What exercises do I use most for back workouts?"
- "Show me Maria's current meal plan macros"
- "Which clients have active weight loss goals?"
- "Which of David's lifts went up this month, and where is his effort climbing?"
It's like having a second pair of eyes on your clients that can pull up their data instantly.
What data is available
For each client it can read (but never change):
- Their profile and goals
- Check-ins, including progress photos, your responses and your client's replies
- Workout and meal plans
- Logged workouts, with every set and the client's effort rating
- Food logs, with each day's calories and macros
- Weigh-ins and tape measurements
- Habits
- Sessions and session packs
It can also read your private notes and your exercise library. It doesn't see payments, the medical questions on your intake form, meal photos, or workout photos and videos.
Security and access
A few important things about the connection:
- Read-only — ChatGPT or Claude can only read your data. They cannot create, modify, or delete anything.
- Coach-scoped — The connection only sees your clients. Other coaches' data is completely invisible.
- Secure connection — You explicitly approve the connection before ChatGPT or Claude can read anything.
- Revocable anytime — Disconnect an app from Settings to instantly revoke all access. See Profile & Preferences.
Who can use it
Every Assistant Coach plan can connect:
- Free and Starter — ChatGPT or Claude reads your demo client, Emma
- Pro — it reads all your clients, through the same connection
On the ChatGPT or Claude side:
- Claude — any plan, including the free plan, which allows one custom connector
- ChatGPT — a paid ChatGPT plan
