Coaching ​

Your AI-powered personal assistant that accompanies you 24/7 in your poker progression. Coaching is your personal assistant for Poker Toolkit: it guides you, answers your questions, and helps you use the application optimally.

What Coaching Can Do for You ​

The AI coach has access to your data and can update it to help you concretely in your progression.

📊 Managing Your Poker Data ​

  • Create and organize your ranges: Complete structure (folders by position, preflop grids adapted to your format)
  • Define your goals: Create structured goals (high goal, low goal, steps, obstacles, archiving)
  • Track your mental leaks: Identify and track your recurring mental errors (description, analysis, resolution)
  • Analyze your concentration: 10 questions about your focus patterns (optimal conditions, distractions, the zone)
  • Define your skill levels: A-Game (best game), B-Game (average game), C-Game (worst game) with detailed characteristics

🤝 Assistance and Recommendations ​

  • Answers your questions: Poker, mental game, application usage
  • Guides you to the right features: Personalized suggestions based on your needs
  • Analyzes your sessions: Preparation (warmup), review (cooldown), tilt management (calmdown)
  • General exchanges: It's a complete AI assistant, you can talk to it about anything related to your progression

🎯 Intelligent Cross-Referencing ​

The coach cross-references your data to give you relevant advice:

  • Example 1: You have a goal "Move up to NL50" and a leak "I call too wide OOP" → The coach can suggest working on this leak before moving up limits
  • Example 2: You define your A-Game as "focused, patient" but you have identified distractions → The coach can remind you of your focus conditions before a session
  • Example 3: You want to learn a range but haven't created one → The coach detects the absence of ranges and offers to create them first

How Does It Work? ​

Access to Your Data ​

The coach has read and write access to your data:

  • Read: It can view your goals, leaks, focus, levels, ranges, past conversations
  • Write: It can create, modify, delete your data (with your agreement in the conversation)
  • Cross-referencing: It analyzes multiple data sources simultaneously to give you contextualized recommendations

Data Security

The coach only has access to your own data. It cannot see other users' data. Your information is isolated and protected.

Saved Conversations ​

  • Each conversation is automatically saved in your account
  • You can resume a conversation at any time (complete history in the sidebar)
  • Conversations less than 6 hours old are automatically reloaded when you return to the page
  • You can archive old conversations to keep a clean interface

Quick Responses ​

The coach's responses appear word by word in real time (like ChatGPT) for a fluid and interactive experience.

Getting Started with Coaching: The 2 Main Actions ​

When you arrive on the Coaching page for the first time, two quick prompts (pre-written quick actions) are highlighted to launch you immediately:

1. 🎯 Create My Ranges ​

Quick prompt: "Help me create my range structure (folders and grids by position), then fill them with base ranges adapted to my game format."

What happens:

  1. The coach asks you 3 quick questions:
    • What format? (Cash game / Tournament / Sit'n'Go)
    • How many players? (6-max / 9-max)
    • What's your playing style? (Tight / Neutral / Aggressive)
  2. The coach automatically creates your structure:
    • 📁 A folder per position (UTG, MP, CO, BTN, SB, BB)
    • 📄 Preflop grids adapted to your format
    • 🎨 Pre-filled ranges with recommended combos

Time: 3-5 minutes Perfect for: Players who want content to memorize immediately

2. 🧠 Define My Mental Profile ​

Quick prompt: "Help me set up my complete mental profile: let's define my poker goals, evaluate my current level, identify my mental leaks, and identify my concentration conditions for my sessions."

What happens:

  1. The coach guides you step by step to:
    • ✅ Set your first goal (high goal + low goal + actionable steps)
    • ✅ Define your A/B/C Game levels (best game, average game, worst game)
    • ✅ Identify your focus conditions (10 questions on concentration)
    • ✅ Note your first mental leaks (recurring errors to correct)

Time: 5-10 minutes Perfect for: Players who want to structure their mental progression

Other Available Quick Prompts ​

Once you're comfortable with the 2 main actions, explore the other quick prompts:

🧠 Mental ​

  • Define or review my goals: Create a new goal or revise existing ones

  • Cool down: Analyze the finished session (observed leaks, necessary adjustments)
  • Calm down: Calm down with a breathing exercise and analyze the tilt

Inline Actions: Navigate Instantly ​

The coach can insert clickable buttons directly in its responses to allow you to navigate instantly to the right page.

  2. It inserts a button in its response: "Here are your current goals: [View my goals]"
  3. You click the button → Instant navigation to the page

Visual Elements: See Your Data Directly in Chat ​

The coach can display visual elements directly in the conversation to show you your data without changing pages.

3. Identify a Recurring Mental Leak ​

You: "I notice I play too many hands after losing a big pot. How do I fix this?"

Coach:

  • Identifies the leak: "Revenge tilt / Loss chasing"
  • Asks questions to understand the trigger (frustration, anger, boredom)
  • Proposes a structured solution:
    1. Detect: Recognize the signs (racing heart, urge to play faster)
    2. Pause: Take a 5-minute break after losing a big pot
    3. Breathing: 4-7-8 breathing exercise
    4. Decision: Continue if A-Game, stop if C-Game
  • Automatically creates a mental leak in your profile with this action plan

    • Adjust deadline (if unrealistic)
    • Revise high goal (if too ambitious)

    1. Warmup (5-10 min): Review goals + focus + breathing
    2. Play (1-2h): Focused session with clear focus

Coach Customization ​

The coach automatically adapts to your preferred communication style.

Automatically Detected Preferences ​

  • Communication style: Concise, detailed, or balanced
  • Tone: Direct, empathetic, analytical, or motivational
  • Analysis depth: Brief, moderate, or in-depth
  • Proactivity: Reactive (waits for your questions), proactive (suggests actions), very proactive (anticipates your needs)

How the Coach Detects Your Preferences ​

The coach observes how you communicate and adapts:

Example 1: You prefer short responses

  • You: "Be more brief"
  • Coach: Detects "concise" → Immediately applies this style → Saves this preference

Example 2: You want detail

  • You: "Explain to me in detail why this range is correct"
  • Coach: Detects "detailed" → Gives an in-depth response → Saves this preference

Example 3: You want to be challenged

  • You: "Don't go easy on me, tell me frankly if I'm making a mistake"
  • Coach: Detects "direct" → Adopts a frank and direct tone → Saves this preference

Adjust Manually ​

You can also explicitly ask the coach to change style:

  • "Be more concise from now on"
  • "I'd like you to be more empathetic in your responses"
  • "Give me more in-depth analyses"
  • "Be more proactive and suggest actions without me asking"

The coach records these preferences and applies them to all your future conversations.

Usage Tips ​

To Progress Effectively ​

  1. Use Coaching as a personal assistant: Ask the coach your questions before looking elsewhere
  2. Be specific: The more precise your question, the more relevant the response
    • ❌ "How do I improve my game?"
    • ✅ "How do I improve my UTG open in 6-max 100bb?"
  3. Use quick prompts: They're optimized to trigger the right actions
  4. Do warmups: Prepare each session with the coach (5 min = more effective session)
  5. Create your structured data: Goals, leaks, focus, levels → The coach can better help you if it knows your profile
  6. Come back after a session: Do a cooldown to note your leaks while memory is fresh
  7. Explore inline actions: Click buttons in responses to navigate quickly
  8. Archive old conversations: Keep a clean interface by archiving conversations over 2 weeks old

To Save Your Quota (Free Version) ​

  • Group your questions: Ask 2-3 questions in one message rather than 3 separate messages
  • Be precise: Avoid unnecessary back-and-forth by giving all details from the start
  • Use inline actions: Navigate to pages directly rather than asking "How do I go to the goals page?"
  • Check the documentation: Basic questions (e.g., "How do I create a range?") have answers in the docs

Coaching Limitations ​

What the Coach CANNOT Do ​

  • ❌ Give specific strategic advice on hands: The coach cannot analyze your played hands or tell you what to do in a specific situation (4bet, call, fold). It only gives general advice on poker and mental game.
  • ❌ Read your external hand histories: It cannot import and analyze your HH files from PokerStars/Winamax
  • ❌ Calculate equity in real time: For that, use the Equity Calculator
  • ❌ Access other users' data: Your data is isolated (security and privacy)
  • ❌ Delete your account: For that, go to Menu → Profile → Delete my account
  • ❌ Modify your subscription: For that, go to Menu → Premium → Manage my subscription

Technical Limits ​

  • 500 messages/month maximum (premium): After 500 messages, wait for monthly reset
  • 10,000 characters per message: Very long messages are truncated
  • Data access limited per message: The coach can view and modify your data, but the number of actions per message is limited to ensure stability. If a complex task is interrupted, simply ask it to "continue".
  • No internet access: The coach cannot search for information online or access external sites

What You Should Know ​

  • Possible errors: The coach is an AI, it can make mistakes (always verify created ranges)
  • Language: Optimized for French and English (other languages less fluent)
  • Limited context: The coach has access to past conversations but always prioritizes the current conversation

Technical Details ​

What AI Model Is Used? ​

Coaching currently uses Claude Haiku 4.5 (Anthropic), a conversational AI model specially adapted for coaching and personalized assistance.
