We went on an absolute run this month. 40+ improvements shipped, zero timeouts called. Here's your highlight reel.
š Tournament MVP ā Client Management for Coaches
The flagship addition this sprint ā and it's a bracket-buster. A full Client Manager inside the Coaching Dashboard gives coaches a commanding view of their entire roster. Think of it as your coaching war room.
The starting lineup:
- Client roster with search, status filters (Active / Pending / Paused), and at-a-glance stats for every client ā shared items, average completion, action and metrics scores, session count, and coaching notes. Full-court visibility.
- Coaching notes ā private, categorized notes (general, session, progress, action items) attached to each client relationship. Pin the important ones, draft and auto-save, filter by category. Your playbook, your rules.
- Coach-client messaging ā direct, real-time messaging between coaches and clients built right into the client detail view. No page refresh, no delay. Fast break communication.
- Session history per client ā every upcoming and past session with a specific client, organized in one place. Full game tape.
- Invite clients from the roster ā add existing GoalMindr users or invite new clients by email. Pending invitations show up with a resend option. Recruiting season is open.
- Group coaching support ā coaching organizations can now manage clients through Groups. The coaching dashboard correctly shows all plans whether owned directly or through a coaching group. Team ball at its finest.
⨠All-New Look ā Nothing But Net
We gave the entire app a visual redesign so clean it's like watching a perfect swish from half court. Every major screen has been rebuilt with our new design system ā modern "liquid glass" aesthetic, better typography, responsive layouts, and dark mode that actually looks good.
Pages that got the full makeover:
- Goals ā rebuilt from the rim up. New hero section, tabbed navigation, redesigned action tracking, key results, and reflection views. Progress metrics now animate with beautiful cards instead of the old gauges.
- Plans ā the Plan Store and detail pages are polished and professional. Your coaching plans deserve to look this good.
- Ideas, Core Values, and Groups ā all running the same updated offense with consistent navigation, hero sections, and controls.
- Check-ins ā goal check-ins and weekly coaching check-ins restyled for a cleaner, more focused experience.
- Item cards and list pages ā every index view now uses redesigned cards with integrated metrics, a modernized filter bar, and a layout that doesn't waste possessions.
š Calendar Integration ā The Assist
Coaching sessions and check-ins now include .ics calendar attachments in confirmation emails. Book a session, add it to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook with one tap. Rescheduled or cancelled sessions send updated events automatically. A no-look pass straight to your calendar.
ā” Real-Time Updates ā Fast Break Scoring
- Live score updates ā complete an action or check-in, and progress metrics (action score, metrics score, completion %) animate instantly on the goal page. No refresh, no delay. And-one.
- Live comment counts ā the comments drawer badge pulses when new messages arrive, so you know there's action even with the drawer closed.
š Security & Permissions ā Lockdown Defense
- Plan content protection ā paid plan content is properly secured. Shared-access users can't peek at proprietary coaching material anymore ā they see the Plan Store listing instead. Shot blocked.
- Graceful access revocation ā if access gets revoked while you're viewing a shared item, you'll see a friendly redirect instead of a black error screen. Clean foul, no flagrant.
š Buzzer Beaters ā Improvements That Clutch Up
- Password strength indicator ā real-time visual checklist as you type (uppercase, lowercase, digit, special character, length) plus a confirmation match indicator. Nothing but green checkmarks.
- Action tracking date labels ā the expanded tracking grid now shows clear date/week labels. No more guessing which period you're logging. Court vision, upgraded.
- Action durations and start times ā recurring and scheduled actions now support duration and start time fields.
- Smarter AI coaching ā Lombardi AI feedback no longer wastes tokens on users who skip check-ins. No check-in, no feedback, no unnecessary spending. Shot clock management.
- Clearer AI token messaging ā hit your token limit? You'll see a clear message explaining what happened and how to upgrade, even mid-form.
- Paused goals scored fairly ā action scores now exclude paused periods. Taking a break won't tank your stats. Injury reserve doesn't count against your record.
- Professional badge accuracy ā "Certified Professional" badge now only shows when you've actually added certifications. Otherwise you get "Professional." No banner without the banner.
- Accountability buddies consolidated ā buddy management merged into the universal Manage Access drawer. One playbook for all sharing.
- Consistent Vision Board imagery ā core value stock images no longer shuffle on every refresh. Your vision board stays your vision board.
- Welcome page animations ā scroll-reveal effects now work properly on mobile and tablet.
šļø Dunking on Bugs
We posterized a whole bracket of bugs this month. Here's the dunk reel:
- Coaching subscription checkout ā slammed the "pricing not valid" error that was blocking new coaching subscriptions. Revenue lane: cleared.
- Comments drawer reliability ā fixed a triple-threat of edge cases where the drawer could appear empty after navigation, repeated open/close, or receiving messages while closed. Three problems, one poster.
- Coaching dashboard metrics ā action and metrics percentages now match what clients actually see. No more box score discrepancies.
- Participant counts ā program participant numbers display correctly again. Stats crew got their act together.
- Check-in navigation ā clicking a check-in card now actually takes you to the check-in. Imagine that.
- Follower notifications ā new follower notifications log correctly now. Off the backboard and in.
- Mobile share drawer ā coaching share badges no longer pile up and overlap on mobile. Spacing the floor properly.
- AI plan builder ā now understands the updated schedule format. No more broken plays.
- Plan step display ā all steps render correctly. That phantom 5th step? Back in the game.
- Comments drawer auto-open ā the drawer no longer pops open uninvited when switching tabs. Stay in your lane.
- Comment double-render ā messages received while the drawer is closed no longer show up twice when you open it. One and done.
That's the final buzzer. 40+ plays executed, zero turnovers. Cut down the nets ā we earned it. šš
