The Coaching Practice Health Check. Free for coaches.
Find where your practice is leaking.
A 20-minute conversation, right here on the page, that shows where your time goes between sessions, what it is costing you, how much of it you could get back, and the first three things to fix. Plus the checklist and the email scripts to fix them.
Free. No card, and you do not need CoachTide.
A sample result
A practice of 11 to 15 clients
their own estimate
- Invoices sent from memory
- Payments buried in the inbox
- Rebooking left until later
Everything works until it does not
At 5 clients you remember everything. At 15, an invoice slips. At 25, a client drifts off without booking again, and you notice weeks later.
Nothing is broken. There is simply more to hold in your head than any one person can.
A note from Jacob
Did I send that invoice?
I built CoachTide after one too many “did I send that invoice?” mornings. I thought I had. I searched my sent mail. Then I searched for the payment, buried somewhere in my inbox. Twenty minutes every time, and the nagging feeling in between.
This health check is the conversation I wish someone had walked me through back then.

What you get
Three things, all free.
About 20 minutes
The health check
A short conversation on this page that asks one question at a time. At the end you get a page you can print: your three biggest pain points, a plain fix for each, roughly how many hours a month they take and how many you could get back, all from your own answers.
One page
Your practice checklist
Before and after each session, end of week, end of month. Fill it in on screen or print it.
Five emails
Scripts for the emails you keep putting off
A late payment, a no-show, raising your rates, ending a coaching relationship well, getting back in touch with a past client.

Your privacy, plainly
What happens to what you tell it.
- We ask for your first name and email so we can send you the health check and a few short emails from Jacob over the next week. Your phone number is optional, and we use it only to call you about your result if you ask us to.
- The health check is a conversation with an AI on this page. What you type goes to one AI company, Anthropic, through the Vercel AI Gateway with its zero data retention setting switched on, only to ask the next question and write your result. It is not used to train AI models.
- CoachTide does not keep the conversation. Close the page and it is gone; you can start again from the link in your email.
- The health check never needs client names or anything that could identify a client, so please leave them out. If one slips in, it asks you to put it another way and takes that message out of the conversation, so it is not sent again.
- We only see your result if you choose to send it to us, and you decide whether we may quote it.
- Your name and email are stored at rest in Canada and never sold.
Every company that handles your information for us is named on our Sub-processors page.
Short questions
Before you start
Is it really free?
Yes. Nothing to buy, and no card.
Do I need to use CoachTide?
No. The review, the checklist and the scripts all work on their own.
Do I need ChatGPT or Claude?
No. The health check runs right here on the page. There is nothing to install and no account to make.
What happens to what I say in the health check?
The health check is a conversation with an AI on this page.

It is not used to train AI models. CoachTide does not keep the conversation. Close the page and it is gone; you can start again from the link in your email.
Should I mention my clients?
Talk about patterns, never people. Please leave client names and details out. Talk about patterns, not people.
No time for the health check?
The checklist and the scripts come in the same email, and they work on paper.
