For managers and team leads
A coach in your corner for the hard parts of managing.
Work Coach sits in on your 1:1s and team meetings. Afterward it helps you prep for the next one, give clearer feedback, and get through the conversations you keep putting off.

Most managers were promoted for their work, not trained to lead.
The skills that got you here aren't the ones the job needs now. Work Coach works alongside you on the parts of managing that no one teaches.

Learn more →Walk into every 1:1 actually prepared.
Before each 1:1, your coach reminds you what you committed to last time, what's been on this person's mind, and the questions worth asking. No more meetings that drift into a status update.
Afterward, it captures what you agreed to, so nothing slips between you and your report.
Say the hard thing without softening it into mush.
Tell your coach what you need to address and it helps you shape the message so it's direct but still kind. It flags the hedging and qualifiers that give people an easy way to nod along and change nothing.
Then you can say it out loud a few times, until it sounds like something you'd actually say.
Rehearse the conversation you're dreading.
Underperformance, a turned-down promotion, a teammate conflict, a layoff. Your coach plays the other person and pushes back the way they might, so you've heard the tough reactions before the real conversation.
Run it as many times as you need. You'll walk in steadier, having already heard the question that would have thrown you.
See how you actually lead, not how you think you do.
Work Coach's recorder sits in on your 1:1s and team meetings. No bot joins the call, and nothing leaves your Mac. Afterward, your coach shows you the patterns: who you interrupt, how much you talk, whether you follow through on what you promised.
When it spots one, you've got something concrete to work on before next week's meetings.
Lead each person the way they actually need.
Great managers adapt to who's in front of them. Your coach builds a picture of each report from your real interactions: what motivates them, where they're stuck, and where they're ready to be pushed.
You end up with a real read on each person, and a few specific ways to help them grow, rather than running the same playbook on everyone.
Nobody gives the manager honest feedback.
Your reports won't risk telling you the truth, your peers are heads-down on their own teams, and your boss is two levels removed from your 1:1s. So the small habits that quietly cost you good people can go unnoticed for years.
Work Coach watches how you actually run a meeting and hands you something specific to fix. The point is to improve while you still have the team, not to figure it out after your best engineer has already given notice.
Frequently asked questions
Will my team know Work Coach is in the meeting?
No. Work Coach captures audio locally on your Mac. There is no bot in the call and no notification, so nobody else in the meeting can tell it's there.
Is this fair to my reports?
Work Coach is a tool for improving your own management, the same way a leadership coach would be. It helps you prepare, reflect, and give better feedback. Your recordings and notes stay private to you, and how you use them with your team is up to you. Follow your company's policies on recording.
What do I need to get started?
Start your free trial and tell your coach about your team and what you're working on as a manager. From there it preps your 1:1s, reviews your meetings, and helps you with the conversations that come up. Every plan begins with a 2-week free trial, with no credit card required.
I just became a manager. Is it too early?
It's the best time. New managers face the steepest learning curve, and your coach helps you build good habits from the start: running real 1:1s, giving feedback, and setting expectations before problems pile up.
How does the rehearsal work?
Your coach plays the other person in a tough conversation and reacts the way they might, including the defensive or emotional responses. You practice out loud, get feedback, and run it again until you're ready for the real thing.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your recordings, transcripts, and notes about your team stay private to you. They're never shared with your company or other users, and never used to train shared models. You can delete everything anytime.
What does it cost?
Plans start at $100/month for the AI coach, $250/month to add human review, and $500/month for live coaching sessions. For comparison, an executive coach often costs several thousand dollars a month. Every plan starts with a 2-week free trial. See pricing.

Start with your next 1:1. Your coach handles the prep and shows you what to work on.
