WayWise builds tools that help coaches get better at what they do, so that good coaching can reach more people. The first is CoMentor, a reflection app for coaches, starting its pilot this autumn.
Why WayWise
Coaching costs more per hour than most people early in their careers can spend, so many stop looking before the first conversation. At the same time, newly trained coaches struggle to get going: the ICF credential asks for client hours and mentor coaching, and good feedback on real sessions is scarce.
WayWise is here to work on that gap. We are starting with the coaches, because a coach who keeps learning is what makes good coaching worth reaching for.
Each side is short of exactly what the other has. What we build for people looking for a coach, we will describe here once it is real.
What we build
A Mac app for coaches, in a pilot from this autumn. Three steps, all on the coach's own laptop.
On their own Mac, as agreed with their client.
Speech becomes text on the same laptop. Many transcription services upload the recording to a server to do this; CoMentor does not, so the session does not come to us or to any AI company.
CoMentor helps the coach reflect on the session, step by step, against the ICF core competencies, and arrive at the next session, and the next mentor hour, better prepared.
For coaches: comentor.app
If your coach uses CoMentor
Your sessions are recorded, transcribed and analysed on your coach's own Mac. They do not come to WayWise or to any AI company.
The only part of your sessions that can ever reach us is a de-identified transcript you have chosen to contribute. Your coach never gives that answer for you.
If you say no, or never answer at all, your coaching and how you work together stay as they are.
Who we are
WayWise brings together people with backgrounds in coaching, psychology and technology. We would rather tell you about something once it is real than guess out loud.
