The coach chat.

Ask anything#

"How am I doing this week?", "What should I eat before training?", "Why is my score low?": the coach answers with your data in mind: your recovery, your protein, your phase, your history. When outside facts matter, it checks the web and cites its sources.

Log in one sentence#

"Weighed 82.4, whey shake after training" becomes two structured entries. The coach reads quantities, times and context from natural language: no forms, no database search.

Log a past day#

Name the day and it goes there: "yesterday I did legs", "Tuesday I skipped creatine", "took magnesium every evening since the first". Each card shows which day it is for, and a range of days becomes one card per day. The coach never files anything on a day that has not happened yet or is more than a year back, and if it cannot tell which day you meant, it asks in one line instead of guessing.

Lock-in cards#

The coach never writes to your data on its own. When something is worth saving, it proposes a lock-in card: food, weight, water, workouts, activities, supplements, goals, personal trackers, memories, profile changes, moods, concerns, reminders and physique entries all arrive this way. One tap saves. Saved the wrong thing? One tap takes it back. The full behaviour is in Lock-in cards.

Your stack, your phase and your targets#

The chat edits the things that steer the app, not only the log. "Swap ashwagandha for vitamin C" archives one supplement and adds the other in the same slot, and "which I have been taking since Monday" backfills the days in between. "Switch me to Build Muscle" changes your phase, "set my protein to 180 g" or "cap my calories at 2,000" sets the one target every screen then shows, and "make my screen-time limit two hours" edits a tracker. Every one of these is still a card you confirm.

Honest confirmations#

A reply never claims a save that did not happen. What actually landed is what the card says: if a day could not be read, a supplement is not in your stack, or a save failed, the card says so and nothing changes. The same rule holds out loud in Talk to Kata.

The Kata log#

The log icon in the chat header opens the Kata log, in three tabs. Locked in is everything ever saved from the chat, with what, when and from which conversation, to review, edit or remove. Memory is what the coach keeps in mind about you. Concerns are the health matters it follows with you. The lock-in mode switch lives here too.

Memory, and correcting it#

The coach keeps a memory of you: your shorthand ("the usual shake"), your equipment, your preferences, your decisions. You can read it, and you can correct it in plain words: say "forget that" or "actually, my shake has 25 g" and the memory updates.

Photos and files#

The plus button attaches a photo from the camera or the camera roll, opens the product scanner, or uploads a file: a PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, JSON or text file is read and answered like a message. Photo analysis comes with Kata Plus and Kata Unlimited; see Photos.

Charts in the chat#

Ask for your weight trend, your protein week or your sleep and the chart renders right in the conversation, drawn live from your own numbers.

Jump chips#

Replies often carry small chips that jump straight to the right place in the app: the workout player, the water tracker, today's supplements. The chat is also your navigation.

Make it coach the way you like#

Tell it. "Be more direct", "keep answers short", "stop suggesting runs": the coach adapts its style and remembers. It also learns your rhythm on its own, week by week. More on that in How it adapts to you.
