Where you spend your time

Your time is money

We know how your week actually goes

Most coaches are not short on demand, they are short on hours. Discovery calls, application forms, onboarding packets, session notes, homework check-ins, and payment plans quickly fill a week that should be spent coaching.

Actionist builds AI agents for Coaches that handle your practice's digital work, so you can focus on the calls and the client relationship.

What matters to you

Speed to book a call
The coach who replies first usually gets the discovery call.
Clients who feel followed up with
A warm check-in beats a client who quietly goes cold.
Sessions that never get missed
A clean diary and a fast rebooking when someone can't make it.
Cohorts that stay on track
Group programs need reminders and accountability, not just a curriculum.
Payments that don't lapse
A failed card should never be the reason a client's plan quietly ends.
Built around your practice
These are examples. Build a custom agent for any job you repeat.

And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..

An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your Coaches team's day.

Triggers and Reactions

Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens

WhenA new discovery-call application landsfires within about a minute

The agent automatically

The moment a prospect submits your intake or application form, the agent reads it within about a minute, scores it against your ideal-client criteria, checks your live calendar, drafts a warm reply offering two discovery-call slots, and logs the lead to your CRM. Every message waits for your one-pass approval before it reaches the prospect, so the fastest-replying coach stops winning by default.

Trust & control

You stay in control

An AI agent works with your real client relationships, so staying in control matters. Actionist is built to be supervised: you decide how much each agent does on its own, you approve what reaches a client, and every step is recorded for you to check.

You set the supervision

Choose how much each agent does on its own, from drafting for your approval to handling trusted routine work. Anything destructive, like deleting or cancelling, always asks first, and that cannot be turned off.

Approve from your phone

Agents can reach you over Telegram or Slack, so you approve a message or an action with one tap, between clients or on the move.

Every run is logged

Each run is recorded step by step, with screenshots and a full transcript, so you can see exactly what the agent read and did.

Your data stays yours

Client credentials are encrypted in a vault and never shown again, memory stays on your own machine, and you can self-host Actionist on your own server.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Will it actually answer my discovery-call applications well, and will it sound like me?

Yes, and quality is the whole point of AI agents for coaches. The agent reads every application within about a minute, checks it against your ideal-client criteria, and drafts a reply offering two call times in your voice. You teach it your tone and your qualifying questions once, and until you fully trust it, every reply waits for your approval before it reaches a prospect. A same-day reply instead of a two-day one is often the difference between a booked call and a prospect who found another coach.

We run a coaching CRM and booking tool that nothing else seems to connect to. Will it still work?

Almost certainly. Actionist operates your tools the way you do, by reading the screen and clicking, typing, and navigating, so it reaches software with no API at all, your coaching CRM, your booking page, the niche client-management tool your practice already runs on. Where an app offers a clean connection it uses it, where it doesn't, the desktop agent simply works the screen, with your approval. You don't rip anything out or wait for an integration to be built. Screen automation runs on the desktop app.

Will it ever message a client without me seeing it first?

Not unless you choose to let it. You set the Approval Mode for each agent, from drafting everything for your review to handling trusted routine work on its own. Anything irreversible, like cancelling a session or issuing a refund, always asks first, and that floor can't be turned off. Most coaches start with every client-facing message queued for a one-tap approval on Telegram or Slack, then loosen it only for the routine stuff once they've seen it get things right, session after session.

What happens to a message that lands at 10pm or on a Sunday?

The desktop agent works while your computer is on and the app is open. For always-on, unattended coverage outside those hours, Actionist offers a hosted cloud runtime as part of a paid plan. With it, a late-night application or a weekend reschedule request gets a drafted reply ready for your approval the moment you're back online, instead of sitting untouched until Monday morning.

Is this replacing me as a coach?

No. It takes the admin: the scheduling, the note-writing, the invoice-chasing, not the coaching. The relationship, the questions you ask in a session, the judgement calls about where a client needs to go next, that's still entirely you. What changes is how much of your week goes to the parts of the job nobody became a coach to do.

Can I build an agent for the specific way I run my practice?

Yes, and this is central to how AI agents for coaches work on Actionist. The teams and workflows on this page are real examples, not the limit of what's possible. If you run a hybrid 1:1 and group model, a niche coaching methodology, or a booking flow nobody else uses, you can build a custom agent for that specific job, brief it like you would a new team member, and refine it as you go.

My clients share sensitive things with me. Is their data safe?

Your client's information stays yours. Credentials are encrypted in a vault and never shown again, an agent's memory of a client's history lives on your own machine rather than a shared server, and none of it is used to train any model. Every run is logged step by step so you can see exactly what an agent read and did, and if you need full control, you can self-host Actionist on your own server.

I'm not technical. How long until I actually have an agent running?

No code, and no developer needed. You brief an agent the way you'd brief a new virtual assistant, in plain language, connect the apps you already use with a guided one-minute setup, and your first agent, like the one that drafts your session recaps, can be running the same day. You approve everything at first and loosen the reins as you see it get things right.

What does this actually cost, and is it worth it for a practice my size?

Pricing scales with how many agents you run and whether you add the hosted cloud runtime, so there's no single number that fits every practice, a solo coach's setup looks different from a small team's. The real way to think about value is the hours back each week: session notes, homework chasing, invoice follow-up, and the renewals that stop slipping through the cracks. Book a free demo and we'll walk through what it would actually save for your practice.
