Clients fill check-ins in a minute and tick off daily habits. ## Check-ins that take a minute. Habits that stick. Measurements, wellbeing questions and progress photos on a schedule - plus daily habits with streaks. And if you coach, you build the forms yourself: your questions, your rhythm. ## Your questions, not a fixed template. Build check-in forms from scratch or fork a template: sections, eight answer types and tracked metrics that feed progress charts automatically. If you can ask it, you can build it. - **Eight answer types**: Short and long text, number, scale, choice, yes / no, date and photo - each question can be required or optional. - **Tracked metrics**: Weight, sleep, circumferences, photos and more chart automatically on the progress board with every submission. - **Ready-made, still yours**: Open a ready-made check-in and edit it like your own - or build from a blank form. ## A minute to answer, not a chore. Assigned check-ins open as a focused, step-by-step form: a progress bar for required fields, tap-to-answer scales, photo uploads and a clear submit. Answers update the progress board the moment they land. - **Focused form**: Numbered sections, a required-fields progress bar and a mobile stepper keep the fill quick. - **Every answer type**: Tap a scale square, flip a yes / no, type a number in your units or add progress photos. - **Straight to the progress board**: Metric answers chart automatically - submit and the trends are already updated. ## Weekly, every N days - the form comes to you. Every check-in keeps its own cadence: weekly on a chosen day, every couple of weeks or months, or on demand. Due dates count down on the dashboard and late ones are flagged - nothing slips. - **Cadence per form**: Weekly on Sunday, every 2 weeks, every 3 months - or no schedule for on-demand forms. - **Countdown, not guesswork**: A due ring shows how many days are left on every assigned check-in. - **Overdue at a glance**: Late check-ins turn red for the client and for the coach - follow-ups don't slip. ## Small daily wins, tracked in seconds. Next to check-ins live daily habits: check-off habits and quantity habits with goals - water, steps, sleep, meals on plan. Start from a ready-made set or add your own, and watch the streak grow. - **Check off or count**: Tick a habit as done, or log a number against a goal - 8 glasses of water, 8 000 steps. - **Your own habits**: Start from a starter set, then add, rename or remove habits - the set is yours. - **Streak and regularity**: A weekly rhythm strip, a day streak and a regularity score keep the momentum visible. ## Ready-made check-ins, one-time profile survey. Your library comes stocked - a weekly check-in, body measurements - and every form is editable like your own. New clients complete a one-time profile survey at registration, and can update it anytime. - **Yours from day one**: Ready-made check-ins live in your library - open one and adjust questions, cadence and hints freely. - **Profile survey**: A one-time questionnaire at registration - goals, history, preferences - kept up to date. - **Self-track without a coach**: Solo athletes fill ready-made check-ins on their own - no assignment needed. ## Review submissions across all clients. A submissions hub lists every filled check-in - form, client, who recorded it and when. Open any entry to read the answers, or record one on the client's behalf during an in-person session. - **One submissions feed**: Every check-in from every client, filterable by form - nothing gets buried in chat. - **Record on behalf**: Measure during a session and enter the answers for the client - the entry says who recorded it. - **History that stays**: Submissions are permanent records - they survive form edits and unassignments. ## From a form to a trend line. Build the form once, assign it, and every submission lands in the client's history and charts - the whole loop lives inside the client workspace. ## Check-in questions, answered. ### Can I build my own check-in forms? Yes - that's the point. Create forms from scratch with sections and your own questions, or open a ready-made check-in and edit it like your own. You control the questions, the hints, what's required and the schedule. ### What answer types can a question have? Short text, long text, number, scale, choice, yes / no, date and photo. Metric questions - weight, sleep, circumferences, photos - chart automatically on the progress board. ### How does the schedule work? Each form keeps its own cadence: weekly on a chosen day (e.g. every Sunday), every N days, weeks or months - or no schedule for on-demand forms. Due and overdue states show up automatically. ### Do I need a coach to use check-ins? No. Solo athletes fill ready-made check-ins on their own and track daily habits - streaks, goals and the weekly grid work without a coach. ### Can I fill a check-in for a client? Yes. You can record a check-in on the client's behalf - useful during in-person sessions. The submission shows who recorded it. ### What is the profile survey? A one-time questionnaire new clients complete at registration - goals, training history, preferences. It stays editable, so it's a living profile rather than a snapshot. ### How do habits work? Habits are daily: check-off habits and quantity habits with a goal and unit. Start from a ready-made set, add your own, tick them off on the dashboard or backfill the weekly grid - the streak and regularity score follow. ## Ask better questions this week.
