AI Coaching

Chat with your coach, not a form.

No complicated menus. No confusing interfaces. Just tell PATO what you ate, what you lifted, or what you need — and it handles the rest. Like having a personal trainer in your pocket who never takes a day off.

Natural conversation

Log meals, workouts, and progress by simply chatting. "I had eggs on toast" is all it takes.

Personalised advice

PATO knows your goals, history, and preferences. Every response is tailored to you.

Smart suggestions

Quick-reply chips after every message so you can tap instead of type.

Photo analysis

Send a photo of your meal, a nutrition label, gym equipment, or your fitness tracker. PATO sees it, understands it, and acts on it.

Web search

Ask PATO to find YouTube exercise tutorials, nearby gyms, or the latest nutrition research.

FAQ

Common questions

How does PATO's AI coaching work?
PATO uses a chat-based AI coach powered by GPT-4o. Members can log meals by typing or sending a food photo, track workouts, get personalised plans, and ask fitness questions. The AI remembers their goals, dietary preferences, injuries, and history to give truly personalised guidance — not generic advice.
Can PATO track my meals from a photo?
Yes. Send a photo of your meal and PATO's vision AI analyses it, estimates calories and macros, and logs it automatically. You can also photograph nutritional labels to save products to your pantry — PATO will use the exact macros every time you eat that food again.
What kind of workout plans does PATO create?
PATO creates periodised, multi-week workout programmes tailored to your goal (muscle gain, fat loss, strength, general fitness), equipment (full gym, dumbbells, bodyweight), schedule, and any injuries. Each exercise includes demonstration GIFs from a 1,300+ exercise library. Plans progress automatically week by week.
How does the gamification system work?
Every action earns points and XP — logging meals, completing workouts, maintaining streaks, hitting milestones. You level up through 10 levels, earn 39 unique badges across 8 categories, and keep a virtual duck companion healthy by staying active. Gyms can offer real rewards (free merch, PT sessions, supplements) that members redeem with earned points.
