HockeyCoach: AI weekly planner for hockey players

Turns training, nutrition, recovery and game schedules into one adaptive weekly plan

Problem
A solo founder built an AI coaching platform for hockey players with 7 coaches sharing one athlete profile, but is stuck on distribution. The broader pain: amateur hockey players' weeks are shaped by games, sleep and how they feel, yet existing training apps hand out static templates that cannot adapt to a back-to-back game week or poor sleep.
Solution
A vertical weekly plan generator: the athlete enters this week's game schedule, sleep and fatigue, and gets a training, nutrition and recovery plan. After each game, inputs update and the plan adjusts. Distribution through clubs and teams lets a coach invite the whole roster.
Users
Amateur hockey players, youth team coaches, hockey clubs.
MVP
Fast athlete profile and weekly schedule entry; rule-plus-LLM generated weekly training/nutrition/recovery plan; post-game self-assessment and auto-adjustment; coach invites players and sees an overview; export as an image for team chats.
Revenue
Individual monthly subscription; club bundle priced per roster; coach plan priced per team.
Why now
Generic fitness AI is owned by big platforms; niche sports remain open, and hockey communities are concentrated around clubs, which suits a solo founder's cold start.
