The encouraging one
Builds you up before naming the thing. Patient, warm, hard to disappoint.
"Good rep. Now let the back leg drive — same intent, more from the floor."
Palaistra is an AI coach that learns your technique, builds you a personal plan, and stays in your pocket — to watch you train, review the tape, and answer your questions. Tennis and weightlifting today. More on the way.
A great coach used to mean a club membership, a $200 lesson, or a parent who played in college. Palaistra is the coach the rest of us never got — patient, attentive, and always there. For every sport. For every athlete.
No setup wizards. No drills to memorize. Just tell us who you are, hit a few, and your coach takes it from there.
Your sport. Where you're at. What you're chasing. Pick a coach whose voice you like, and you're in.
Prop up your phone. Computer vision reads your body, your equipment, and the play in real time — and your coach speaks between reps or points only when there's something worth saying.
After your first session, your coach writes you a plan. Three focus areas, drills that target each one, and a way to measure whether they're working — across every session you ever do.
Open the app anywhere — at the gym, on the couch, in the car. Pull up yesterday's session, slow it down, ask why your form felt off. Your coach answers.
Onboarding, training, planning, and review — the same coach knows what you did yesterday and what to focus on today.
Hit a few. Palaistra reads your technique and writes your starting plan.
One clear finding. Real numbers. No homework you'd never do.
A focused, sport-aware program that adapts after every session.
A coach you can talk to between sessions — voice or text. They remember every rep.
Most apps reset between sessions. Palaistra holds a structured plan, tracks which cues stuck and which slipped, and adapts what it focuses on next time you're in.
Some weeks the work compounds. Some weeks it slips. Either way, you see it. Your coach sees it. And the next session starts from there.
Pick the voice you want to hear when you're tired, when you're working, when you're learning. Switch any time — your plan travels with you.

"Good rep. Now let the back leg drive — same intent, more from the floor."
The technician
Reads your form like a director reads a take. Says the one true thing, no cushion.
"Elbow collapsed at contact. Fix that and three other things fix themselves."
The hitting partner
High-energy. Catches what worked the second after it works. Trains with you, not at you.
"That's the one. Do ten more like that and we move on."
Tennis and weightlifting at launch. The biomechanical engine, the voice, the memory — all shared. Every new sport extends the same coach you already know.
Forehand, backhand, serve, volley. 27 fault checkpoints. Coaching adapts from rec player to tournament-level.
Squat, deadlift, bench, press, clean. Form failures = injury risk. Real-time cues before the next rep.
Same engine, different geometry. Beta testing now.
The swing, takeaway, and impact. Coming after pickleball.
33% off every tier, locked for 12 months. The cohort closes when 50 seats are claimed or 30 days after launch — whichever comes first.
In exchange: tell us what's working, what isn't, and what we should build next. We read every note.
