The AI coaching product of Winning Mind LLC, a performance psychology firm founded in San Diego in 2001.
WinningMind AI is not a chatbot with a sports skin. It is the product of twenty-five years of applied performance psychology. Winning Mind LLC has coached Olympic and professional athletes, advised companies including McKinsey & Company and J.P. Morgan, and trained military special operations personnel. The firm also administers the TAIS assessment, the attentional-style inventory developed by Dr. Robert Nideffer and used for decades in elite sport and military selection.
The coaching methods inside this product are the same ones the firm uses with its consulting clients: concentration under pressure, pre-performance routines, and recovering focus after mistakes. The AI makes them available at 11pm before a tournament, not just in a scheduled session.
