For Coaches
The Hub: Support Others' Growth
The breakthroughs happen in conversation. The integration happens between them.
For coaches, mentors, therapists, managers — anyone supporting someone else's reflective journey.
Opportunity
The Between-Session Opportunity
Your clients leave sessions with clarity, intentions, and momentum. But between sessions:
- Insights fade without reinforcement
- New patterns don't get practiced
- Journaling happens (if at all) without structure
- Growth stalls until the next conversation
GroundedNinja extends your coaching work — giving clients a space to reflect, practice, and integrate between sessions.
Tooling
Structured Reflection Tools
Breaking Frame
Guides clients through cognitive reframing when they're stuck:
- Describe the situation (facts only)
- Articulate the story they're telling themselves
- Apply a reframing technique (with AI guidance)
- Capture the wisdom that emerges
Clients build the muscle of self-coaching between your sessions.
Future Self
Clients receive a letter from their future self-grounded in their documented aspirations, values, and growth patterns.
Based on Hal Hershfield's temporal self-continuity research: the more a person feels their future self is continuous with who they are now, the less steeply they trade a larger later reward for a smaller immediate one.
Perspective that's personal, not generic advice.
Habit Design
AI-guided exploration of habits clients want to build or break.
Identifies cues, routines, and rewards. Creates implementation intentions. Tracks progress with compassion, not guilt.
Sustainable change, not willpower battles.
Daily Practices
Clients define meaningful rituals-morning routines, evening reflections, mindfulness moments — and track their commitment.
Practices connect to values and aspirations, making them feel purposeful rather than mechanical.
Integration work that happens between sessions.
Dialogue
AI Dialogue That Extends Your Work
Clients can discuss their reflections with AI "Sages"-figures like Marcus Aurelius, Brené Brown, or Viktor Frankl.
- Draw from the client's documented journey (journals, values, insights)
- Use coaching principles (powerful questions, reflection, minimal advice)
- Know when to create space rather than offer more
- Never replace your relationship — they complement it
The Sages reference what the client has written, helping them see patterns you can explore together.
Oversight
The Hub: Visibility for You
Our Hub dashboard gives coaches visibility into client progress:
- See summaries of client reflections (when they choose to share)
- Track themes and patterns emerging between sessions
- Receive AI-generated briefs highlighting what's surfacing
- Use shared insights as starting points for sessions
Clients control what they share. You get context without reading every journal entry.
Fit
Who This Works Best For
GroundedNinja is designed for clients who are:
- Functional and growth-oriented-seeking development, not crisis support
- Reflective by nature-they read, think, journal (or want to)
- Curious about philosophy and psychology-Stoicism, Jung, meaning-making
- Ready to do the work-not looking for quick fixes
In other words: the clients who get the most from coaching.
Evidence
Built on Research
Our conversation system is designed around what makes dialogue actually work:
Intent Recognition
The AI distinguishes between wanting depth, acknowledgment, or space
Energy Calibration
Responses match the client's message length and intensity
Structural Variety
Beyond the typical "reflect - reframe - question" pattern
Minimal Encouragers
Sometimes "Take your time with that" is the right response
The rule underneath all four: a companion that explains you to yourself gets resisted, and one that asks and keeps pace does not. So the Sage asks.
Partner program
Early Partner Program
We're looking for 10 coaches to help shape this tool:
What you get:
- Free Pro access for you and your practice
- Free Hub access when it launches
- Direct input into feature development
- A tool shaped by practitioners, not just developers
What we ask:
- Try it yourself (20-30 minutes)
- Share honest feedback on what works and what doesn't
- Consider recommending to 1-2 clients if it fits
No commitment beyond that. We genuinely want to learn whether this is useful for your practice.
