Pages in this chapter

-   [AI Workouts](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/ai-workouts): An AI Workout is a 15-minute exercise on your own task, with a ready-made prompt you start in your AI tool. The AI library has more than 40.
-   [Ten AI-first principles](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/principles): The principles behind coaching and AI Workouts. From each situation of yours, coaching picks at most two that will help you most right now.
-   [AI context](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/ai-context): A short description of you and your work that helps AI advise more precisely. The plugin handles it for you. Without it, you copy the context from the app.
-   [Coaching in a company program](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/company-program): Company programs can add a short check-in in the app, a weekly recommendation by email and a calendar. The base stays coaching in your AI tool.

Coaching runs inside your own AI tool. You write what you are working on right now. The Superpowered Professional plugin knows the result of your test and shows you how to hand AI a bigger piece of your work. It is included in the subscription at no extra cost, and there is no human coach in it.

## The coaching answer

Say something like: “Tomorrow I send the client a monthly report. Can you help me not start from zero?”

The answer always has five parts. **What I noticed** is what coaching sees in your task. **Principle** is one, at most two, of the ten [AI-first principles](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/principles) that will help your work most right now. **First experiment** is one small step you try straight away. **Prompt for AI** is a ready-made prompt with \[brackets\] for your details. **How you will know it worked** is the signal that tells you the experiment went well.

After that, coaching offers you 2–3 [AI Workouts](https://aibility.org/en/docs/coaching/ai-workouts). You pick one and the plugin walks you through it.

## Where coaching gets its direction

The direction comes from the work you are doing right now. The level and profile from your test set only the language and the difficulty, and the history makes sure coaching does not give you the same advice twice.

In tools that support scheduled tasks, coaching can reach out on its own and go through with you at the end of the week what worked.

## Data in your tool

Your work and the coaching answers stay in your tool. Only a record goes back to Aibility: which method coaching offered you, in which area, in which mode and when, so the same advice is not repeated. More is in the chapter [Security and data](https://aibility.org/en/docs/ai-tool/security).

## How it differs from a course

A course has fixed content in videos and ends with a quiz. Here you learn on the task you are doing right now, you get help in the tool where you work, and you check your improvement with a new test under the same rules.

## Requirements

A Superpowered Professional subscription and an AI tool that supports plugins or connections through MCP. You pay for your AI tool separately, and coaching uses its limits. The test and AI Workouts also work in the app, without the plugin and without a paid AI tool.
