Full-Stack Developer Needed for AI-Powered Personal Training Studio SaaS MVP.

# Build an AI-Powered Personal Training Studio Management App — MVP

## Project Overview

We are looking for an experienced **Full-Stack Developer / App Development Team** to build the MVP of **Ulpha Coaching OS**, an AI-powered coaching and studio management platform designed for in-person personal training studios.

This is **not simply a workout tracking app**.

The goal is to create a centralized operating system connecting **studio owners, personal trainers and clients**, while using AI to improve coaching quality, client accountability, progress tracking and studio operations.

We are initially looking to build a scalable MVP, with the potential for continued development and a long-term partnership.

## User Roles

The application will initially support three main user types:

### 1. Studio Owner / Admin

Owners should be able to:

* Manage trainers and clients
* Assign clients to trainers
* View active clients
* Monitor attendance
* Review trainer activity
* View client progress
* View studio performance dashboards
* Access monthly reports
* Review important alerts and insights

### 2. Trainer

Trainers should be able to:

* View daily clients/sessions
* Access complete client profiles
* Review client goals and limitations
* Create and assign workout programs
* Log workout sessions
* Record sets, reps, weights and RPE
* Record pain/client feedback
* Add coaching notes
* Substitute exercises and record the reason
* View client progress
* Complete assessments
* Receive AI-generated session summaries and coaching suggestions

### 3. Client

Clients should have a simple interface allowing them to:

* View their program
* View upcoming sessions
* Review completed workouts
* Track progress
* View attendance
* View goals
* View achievements
* Receive trainer instructions
* Receive reminders
* View monthly progress reports

# Core MVP Features

## Authentication & User Management

* Secure login
* Password reset
* Owner, trainer and client accounts
* Role-based permissions
* Trainer/client assignments
* Studio-level user management

## Client Profiles

Each client profile should contain:

* Basic information
* Goals
* Relevant health/injury information
* Coaching limitations
* Assessments
* Progress
* Attendance
* Programs
* Workout/session history
* Trainer notes

## Exercise Library & Program Builder

Trainers should be able to:

* Create exercises
* Search exercise library
* Create workout programs
* Add exercises to programs
* Define sets/reps
* Weight/load
* RPE
* Tempo
* Rest period
* Exercise instructions
* Alternatives/substitutions
* Assign programs to clients
* Duplicate programs
* Maintain program history

## Session Logging

This is one of the most important parts of the application.

During a training session, trainers should quickly be able to record:

* Exercise
* Sets
* Repetitions
* Weight
* RPE
* Pain/discomfort
* Completed/skipped exercises
* Exercise substitutions
* Reason for substitution
* Client feedback
* Coaching notes

The interface must be **fast and mobile-friendly**, as trainers will use it while actively coaching clients.

## Assessments & Progress Tracking

Support tracking of:

* Weight
* Body measurements
* Strength
* Mobility
* Cardiovascular fitness
* Progress photos
* Goals
* Assessment dates

Historical data should be displayed visually so trainers and clients can understand progress over time.

## Attendance

Track:

* Scheduled sessions
* Completed sessions
* Cancelled sessions
* Missed sessions
* Attendance percentage/history

## AI Integration

We want to integrate an AI API into the platform.

For the MVP, AI should primarily be used for:

### AI Session Summary

After a session, AI can review session information and generate a concise summary.

### AI Trainer Feedback

AI reviews:

* Program goals
* Session notes
* Exercise substitutions
* Client history
* Recent progress

It can then provide educational suggestions to the trainer.

**AI should assist the trainer, not make final coaching decisions.**

### AI Progress Reports

Generate monthly client reports including:

* Attendance
* Progress
* Strength improvements
* Achievements
* Important observations
* Coach recommendations
* Suggested focus for the next month

All AI recommendations should be reviewable by the trainer before being shared with the client.

## Dashboards & Reporting

### Owner Dashboard

Show important studio information such as:

* Active clients
* Active trainers
* Sessions completed
* Attendance
* Client activity
* Assessment completion
* Trainer activity
* Basic retention indicators

### Trainer Dashboard

Show:

* Today's clients/sessions
* Pending assessments
* Follow-up requirements
* Recent client activity
* Client progress
* AI recommendations

### Client Dashboard

Show:

* Current program
* Recent workouts
* Progress
* Attendance
* Goals
* Achievements
* Latest report

# Technical Expectations

We are open to recommendations regarding the technology stack.

The application should, however, be:

* Responsive and mobile-friendly
* Secure
* Scalable
* Built using clean, maintainable architecture
* API-ready
* Designed to support future native mobile apps
* Designed so multiple studios/locations can eventually be supported
* Built with proper role-based access control
* Designed with secure handling of sensitive client information
* Properly documented

The database architecture should be designed carefully because client/session/program data will become the foundation for future AI capabilities.

# UI/UX Expectations

We want a **modern, premium, simple fitness/coaching interface**.

The application should require minimal typing during training sessions.

We are particularly interested in developers with experience building:

* SaaS applications

## Important

We are looking for someone who can help us build the **foundation of a long-term SaaS product**, not simply deliver a collection of screens.

Code quality, scalability, security, database design and user experience are important to us.

There is potential for **long-term development work** after successful completion of the MVP.
