PaceBeats opens up to coaches, connects to Strava both ways, and gives your AI coach the ability to edit your plan and deliver weekly insights.

Coaches get an at-a-glance view of every athlete's key metrics plus an AI insight, so they always know who needs attention.
Private coach notes per athlete
Keep private notes on each athlete to track context, history, and plans over time.

Set how each day looks with a day-card editor, per-day limits, and draggable tags for your long sessions.
Understand where your targets come from

A quick spotlight tour after onboarding shows you weekly insights, the sidebar, and Memory, and you can hover or tap terms like TSS, CTL, and FTP to get a simple explanation in context.
Understand and adjust your build cycle
During plan review you can now see what your Build cycle means and change it to suit how you like to train.
