Getting started.

From zero to a working daily routine in one sitting. This page covers your account, the three ways to set up, and what a good first week looks like.

Where Kata will run

Three routes are on the way, and none of them is open yet: the iPhone app first, then Android, then the browser. It is the same Kata on all three, reading the same account, and you will be able to move between them any time.

1. Create your account

Kata accounts open at app.yourkata.com and in the apps. You will sign up and confirm your email, and sign in with email and password, Google, Apple or a magic link. Before the first screen you agree to the Terms and Privacy Policy, recorded per version, and a short four-line walkthrough says what Kata is. The account carries your email and not much else: everything personal stays on your device.

Invited by a friend?

Sign up with the same email address the invite went to, or through your friend's link. Your free month of Kata Plus lands once you confirm your email and get going.

2. Set up your way

Two minutes of setup, and you pick how. Set up via chat: the coach asks and you answer, your name, what you are working toward, how your days look, and everything saves itself. Guided setup: step by step through profile, phase and targets, supplements, movement, tone and connections. Or Bring it from another app: paste what your other app or AI assistant knows about you, and Kata keeps the parts that matter and leaves the old numbers behind. Whichever you choose, everything can be changed later in Settings.

Setup ends with one honest question about notifications: allow them and your daily line and reminders reach you outside the app; say not now and they arrive inside Kata instead. Then you enter Kata, in the chat.

3. Your first week

  • Mornings: open Kata, read your daily line, weigh in if you like ("weighed 82.4").
  • Through the day: mention meals, water and training as they happen. One sentence is enough.
  • Evenings: close the day with the review: one tap says how it went, and your 14 day strip starts to fill.

By day seven the coach knows your shorthand, your day score means something, and the first trends appear. That is the whole trick: small, honest days, repeated.
