We all strive to be a leader or a high performer. Whether you are a freelancer, manager or member in a team, you want to lead your situations and solve problems. As leaders, we sometimes ask ourselves this imperative question: How do we develop our leadership skills to become successful leaders? There are many materials available, but how do you practice the learnings in your day-to-day routine?
A researcher at Duke University found that more than 40 percent of the actions performed by people each day weren’t actual decisions, but habits.
When you rise in the morning, you determine nearly half of your day by the patterns you’ve either intentionally created or passively allowed.
The answer lies in setting the right intentions every morning and practicing reflections so that you can proactively improve your leadership skills with the power of your mind. It can be done by journaling daily on a diary, but it is static and not interactive enough for some people.
Rocky is an AI leadership coach. Rocky is a conversational AI that asks you the right questions, gives supports to help you become more self-aware and mindful about how you spend your day and interact with your team.
With Rocky AI, leaders can do daily primings & reflections from conversations with Rocky AI to practice:
Since we joined the Techstars Accelerator program, we have spoken to startup founders and high-potential freelancers and found out that leaders commonly have challenges in the three aforementioned areas. Interestingly, one of our cofounder Harry Novic participated in a closed workshop for experienced leaders where the leaders shared their stories and challenges, and even their challenges are related to the above topics mentioned.
This week, we started inviting some early adopters to join our closed beta to test Rocky AI. Our current Beta users are from the UK, US, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, and Norway and they are C-level startup executives, corporate leaders, and high potential freelancers.

You do. Your content stays exclusive to your app and is not used to train models for other customers.
Stated plainly, because vagueness here costs deals:
For a coach or consultancy this is existential rather than administrative. Your methodology is the business. Handing it to a platform that folds it into a shared model would mean funding your competitors' capability.
If you're evaluating alternatives, make this a written question rather than a verbal one, and read the answer carefully. "We don't train on customer data" and "your data is secure" are different claims, and only one of them is the one you need.
Creator plans start at $29/month, with $99 and $199 tiers adding included seats and the ability to sell to individuals and businesses. A 14-day free trial is included.
The tiers map to business stage rather than feature-gating for its own sake:
For context: a single human coaching session can run several hundred dollars. The entry tier costs less than one session per month and serves an unlimited audience.
Yes. The $99, $199 and enterprise tiers let you sell your branded app to individuals or businesses, with a coach panel, analytics, SSO and GDPR posture that corporate buyers require.
Three business models fall out of this, and they're not mutually exclusive:
The entry product. A subscription AI coach running your methodology, sold to people who could never afford your 1:1 rate. Fully automated, and a natural funnel into your premium work.
The retention layer. Existing clients stay engaged with your method between sessions. Results improve — coaching that stops at the end of the call mostly doesn't stick — and renewals improve with them.
The enterprise offer. You license your branded AI coaching software to corporate clients. This is the one that changes the size of the business: you stop being a coach they hire and become a platform they license.
That third model is why the compliance features matter to a solo coach. SSO and GDPR posture are what let you answer a procurement questionnaire without disqualifying yourself.
