AI Check-Ins are a game-changer — but they start with one key ingredient: your template.
This guide will walk you step-by-step through creating your first AI Check-In Template, including a ready-to-use template you can copy and customize.
🚀 Step-by-Step Setup
1. Go to the AI Check-Ins Configuration
Inside your FitMetrics dashboard, click "AI" from the left menu, then enable AI Check-Ins and click "Configure".
2. Click “New Template”
Give your template a clear name (e.g., Full Feedback, Weekend Check-In, etc.).
3. Set Your Data Timeframe
For your first template, choose “Last Week”. This will allow the AI to pull all metrics from the previous 7 days.
4. Paste the Template Content

This is where the magic happens.
The {{ai_coach_feedback}} is a custom AI prompt — it pulls real client data and generates personalized feedback in your own coaching voice.
You can view and customize this under the AI Prompts tab inside the AI Check-Ins settings.
We recommend starting by copying our default prompt, modifying it slightly to match your style, and testing it on a few clients.
🧠 Extra Tips:
The placeholder
{{ai_coach_feedback}}is powered by a custom AI Prompt you can configure inside the AI Prompts tab.You can duplicate our default prompt, tweak it, and test different versions.
If your client has a status set in the Client Compliance Tracker (e.g. vacation, sick, injury, etc.), the AI will adjust its tone and recommendations accordingly. For example, if a client is marked as injured, the AI won’t ask them why they skipped workouts — it will instead suggest recovery advice. So always keep the Compliance Tracker updated!
🧠 Pro Tip
You don’t need to start with 10 templates. One high-quality template like this one, scheduled on Mondays, will already save you hours of manual work — while delivering massive value to your clients.
