Feature
AI Analysis — your coach briefing for every matchday
KAIZEA automatically evaluates every player's Load Index, wellness, and training history, and delivers a briefing in three sentences — before you'd have scrolled through a single spreadsheet. The decision stays with you.
The problem
Why does training-data review keep getting skipped in amateur football?
A flood of data, no time to review it
RPE values, wellness check-ins, attendance — they pile up week after week, but on a Tuesday evening nobody has time to turn them into a decision.
Lineup calls made on gut feeling
Who starts on matchday often comes down to the impression from the last session — not what load and form actually show.
Pros have analyst teams — amateur clubs don’t
Top-flight clubs have sports scientists reviewing training data full-time. In an amateur club, the coach does it on the side, if at all.
Why it matters: the Load Index that every briefing evaluates keeps training load in the sweet spot between 0.8 and 1.3 — below that threshold, injury risk stays low; above it, risk climbs (Gabbett, British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016). It's calculated hardware-free from session RPE, the validated self-rating of perceived exertion (Foster et al., Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2001). That's exactly the calculation the AI briefing takes over — doing it by hand on a training night is barely realistic.
In detail
What is an AI briefing?
An AI briefing is an automatically generated daily summary for each player — in three sentences: load status, wellness trend, and a recommendation for today's session. A trained language model evaluates training data from the last 10 matches and 10 sessions and delivers the result in the coach's language.
- Three sentences, generated automatically every morning
- Context from the last 10 matches and 10 training sessions
- Delivered in the coach's language
AI briefing · Today
Elias K.: Load Index above 1.3 — cut intensity today.
Finn T.: light on red, wellness trend falling for three days — rest recommended.
Rest of the squad in the green — full session possible.

Before / after
What changes on a Tuesday evening — manual vs. with an AI briefing?
Without a briefing, review stays manual work: going through raw data, spotting patterns yourself, picking a lineup from gut feeling. The AI briefing takes over the groundwork — the decision still stays with the coach.
| Criterion | Manual | With AI briefing |
|---|---|---|
| Time spent in the evening | Reviewing raw data yourself | Three sentences, ready before you look |
| Consistency | Depends on the coach's day | Same criteria for every player, every day |
| Lineup logic | Gut feeling from the last session | Load Index, wellness trend, and form as the basis |
| Individual questions | No systematic way to answer them | Ask via custom prompt, against your own team's data |
Who decides
Does the AI make training decisions — or does that stay with the coach?
No. The AI briefing provides recommendations, not decisions — the coach reviews, adjusts, and makes the final lineup call. KAIZEA is an assistance system, not an autopilot.
-
Five-dimension analysis
Technical, tactical, physical, mental, overall — every player is assessed across five dimensions, a fuller picture than fitness numbers alone.
-
A lineup suggestion, not a directive
Based on the Load Index, wellness, and form, KAIZEA suggests a lineup. The final call always stays with the coach.
-
Your own questions via custom prompt
Ask KAIZEA something like "Which players are suited for high-intensity possession training?" — the answer is based on your team’s real data.
-
Privacy: names anonymised
Player names are anonymised in the prompt sent to the language model, and no PII lands in logs. Mental-state data requires a separate AI opt-in.
Where are the limits of AI recommendations?
Honestly: wherever the underlying data is thin. An AI briefing is only as good as the RPE and wellness values that feed it — and it replaces neither diagnostics nor coaching experience.
- Without regular RPE and wellness entries, recommendations stay vague — the AI is only as good as the data it gets.
- Reliable patterns emerge after 7 days of consistent input; a full Load Index calculation needs 28 days.
- No substitute for medical diagnostics, a sports-science team, or coaching experience — it brings together data nobody else pulls together.
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI briefing in KAIZEA?
An AI briefing is an automatically generated, personalised summary for each player — based on their current Load Index, wellness scores, and training history. The coach gets concrete recommendations at a glance.
Does the AI make training decisions — or does that stay with the coach?
The AI does not make decisions. It provides recommendations based on the Load Index, wellness, and form — the final call on training and lineup always stays with the coach.
Does an AI training recommendation replace the coach's experience?
No. The AI brings together the Load Index, wellness trend, and training history into a suggestion — reading the player and the team stays with the coach. KAIZEA is an assistance system, not a replacement for coaching knowledge.
Does AI-driven training-load management work without GPS or wearables?
Yes. The basis is session RPE — each player's subjective effort rating (Foster et al., Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2001) — combined with attendance and wellness check-ins. Wearables are optional, not required.
Which languages does the AI briefing support?
KAIZEA supports German, English, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish. AI briefings are automatically generated in the coach's language.
How much data do I need before the AI gives meaningful recommendations?
After 7 days of consistent data input, KAIZEA begins to identify reliable patterns. Full Load Index calculations are possible after 28 days.
