Quality
Coach quality, in the open.
Most fitness apps with an AI coach don’t publish what their coach actually does. We publish ours. Every VolumeArc coach prompt goes through a regression harness, and the live-relay response layer writes its nightly results into this public trend.
Latest nightly response eval
Source: docs/coach-eval-trend.json, mirrored into the marketing build. The workflow appends one record on each scheduled main-branch run and keeps raw per-fixture artifacts in GitHub Actions for 30 days.

What the harness covers
Readiness × Intent
Bucketed at readiness 45 / 60 / 72 / 82 / 88 across six intents: progression, deload, form, recovery, substitution, and free-form coaching.
Coaching style
Three personas: motivational, analytical, and minimal. The system prompt envelope is asserted to match the user setting on every render.
Session history
Cold-start, single-session, and established lifter histories. Tests verify that the coach references real prior context when present.
Privacy mode
Strict-mode redaction is asserted before an outbound prompt can leave the device for the relay-backed coach path.
Two layers of testing
Template layer. Pull-request CI renders every fixture through CoachPromptTemplate.render(...) and asserts the marker, intent envelope, style persona, and verbatim user question stay intact.
Response layer. The nightly workflow signs a relay request for each fixture, streams the production coach response, appends the summary above, and fails the job if any assertion fails.
Response-quality assertions
- Sentence-count cap so answers stay coach-like instead of essay-like.
- Numeric grounding from RPE, readiness, weight, reps, or load context.
- Readiness / fatigue references when the fixture expects recovery awareness.
- Pain-signal flagging so the coach does not recommend loading through pain.
- Banned-phrase guardrails for model and product-name leakage.
Why we publish this
LLMs drift. Frontier models change. Prompts that worked yesterday may degrade tomorrow. The honest answer to “is the coach actually good?” is to put the test results in front of you. If the trend turns red, the same workflow fails internally before a new coach regression can hide behind product copy.
