Core features
Pre-Session Snapshot
Before each client session, review one screen that summarizes what changed since the last conversation: new signals, pipeline movement, confidence trend, commitments kept or missed, and one recommended talking point for the upcoming session. In early 2026 pilots, coaches reported less context-rebuild time (directional, qualitative); results vary by workflow and adoption quality.
Client Portfolio Dashboard
A portfolio-level view of all active clients: active vs drifting status, confidence trend, pipeline velocity, prep quality score, and last session date. It is designed to highlight which clients need intervention first.
Client Visibility Controls (client-controlled)
Clients set what coaches can see. Options include read-only signals, pipeline access, full prep brief access, or no access. Coaches cannot view anything that has not been granted.
Session Commitment Tracker
Log commitments made in each session. The tracker surfaces follow-through, at-risk commitments, and overdue actions before the next call.
Coach Partner Program
Earn 20% recurring commission on active client referrals. Enrollment is free at startingmonday.app/partners and includes a referral link, onboarding materials, and messaging templates.
Practice Model Paths
Choose the coach persona route that matches how you operate:
- Independent coach (solo practice): 1-15 clients, lightweight portfolio view, referral-only commission model
- Boutique firm coach: Team-based operations, shared client visibility settings, standardized scorecards
- Enterprise-sponsored coach cohort: Cohort governance, sponsor-ready reporting, program-level risk queue
- Search-affiliate coach: search-adjacent workflow with trust-boundary framing and interview-arc support
30-Day Pilot Scorecard
A structured pass/fail pilot framework for evaluating the platform with 2-3 clients. Metrics include context-rebuild time, prep quality, between-session momentum, and client confidence trend.
Weekly Activity Digest
Each week, receive a portfolio summary: who is active, who is drifting, newly surfaced signals, and the client most at risk of losing momentum.
Trust Pack
Documentation for coaches and firms evaluating broader rollout: methodology notes, claims policy, pilot evidence with denominator disclosures, security posture, and diligence path. See startingmonday.app/for-coaches/trust-pack.
Boutique Firm Tools (Boutique plan and above)
- Shared client views across the coaching team
- Standardized session scorecard template configurable per firm
- Coach performance benchmarking (aggregate and anonymized)
- Sponsor-ready cohort reporting for enterprise-sponsored programs
Search-Affiliate Workflow
For coaches working alongside retained search firms: trust-boundary documentation, interview-arc visibility, and proof assets for partner communication.
