Why Create an AI Assistant Account?

FitMetrics sends AI-powered messages through Trainerize. Creating a dedicated AI Assistant team member:

  • Keeps AI messages separate from human coaches.

  • Makes it clear to clients which messages are automated.

  • Allows you to assign the AI as the message sender in FitMetrics.


Step 1: Add a New Team Member in Trainerize

  1. Log in to Trainerize.

  2. Navigate to TeamAdd New Team Member.


Step 2: Adding New Team Member (AI Assistant)

  • Name your assistant:

    • First Name: Your Business Name (e.g., XeniosFitness)

    • Last Name: Assistant
      (e.g., XeniosFitness Assistant)

  • You don’t need a new email account.

  • You can use your existing email with a “+” alias.

  • All emails sent to support+AI@... will still arrive in your main inbox.


Step 3: Profile & Permissions

  • Profile Picture: (Optional) Upload a unique avatar or your company logo for transparency.

  • Permissions: No need to assign clients to this account — the AI will send messages automatically.


Step 4: Sync with FitMetrics

  1. Go to FitMetrics → Settings → Trainerize Integration. https://app.fitmetrics.ai/business/settings/trainerize-integration

  2. Click Sync (top-right).

  3. Within seconds, the AI Assistant will appear in your FitMetrics team list.


Step 5: Set AI Message Sender

  1. Go to Messaging Settings in FitMetrics.

  2. Under AI Message Sender, select the AI Assistant you just created.

  3. Save your settings — you’re ready to go!


Ethical Considerations

  • Be transparent: Name your assistant clearly (e.g., Your Business Assistant).

  • Avoid confusion: Ensure clients know they are interacting with an AI system, not a human coach.
