Man vs. machine: can AI coaching help you level up?

Everyone’s talking about AI. Fewer are using it well. Even fewer are being coached to unlock its full potential. Whether you’re aiming to boost productivity, streamline your workflow, or stop feeling outpaced by fast-moving tech, AI coaching can give you the edge and turn overwhelm into opportunity.

According to PwC's 2024 Global Workforce Hopes & Fears Survey, among employees who use generative AI daily, 82% expect it to increase their efficiency in the next 12 months, and nearly half anticipate it will lead to higher salaries. AI is transforming the way we work, learn, and think. But for most, the learning curve is steep and the tools feel overwhelming. That’s where AI coaching comes in: helping bridge the gap between potential and real-world impact.

What is AI coaching?

AI coaching is all about being coached to use AI strategically and confidently. 75% of people who have AI coaching report better work performance, relationships and communication. With the right support, you can go beyond dabbling with prompts and build real fluency to:

  • Unlock the full capabilities of tools like Perplexity, ChatGPT, Notion AI, Excel Copilot, Midjourney and more
  • Master prompt frameworks and advanced prompting techniques
  • Build AI into your daily workflow
  • Think critically about how and when to use AI
  • Stay up to date with the rapidly evolving AI landscape

Just like you'd get a personal trainer to help you train smarter and reach your fitness goals faster, AI coaching helps you use tech to achieve real-world goals. In short, it’s for anyone who wants to work smarter, not harder. That includes professionals who feel left behind by the AI boom, managers who want their teams using AI efficiently, job seekers and students building future-proof skills, and founders, freelancers and creatives who want to ideate, automate and produce faster.

Whether you're a knowledge worker, creator, entrepreneur or student, learning how to think with AI is quickly becoming a career superpower. Yes, there are tutorials and YouTube rabbit holes. But AI coaching provides structure, accountability, and personalization, helping you ask better questions (and get better answers from AI), integrate AI tools into your specific role and workflow, build automated systems to save time and effort, and stay focused on impact rather than novelty.

It’s not about replacing you with a machine. It’s about making you better with one.

Still not convinced? Here are just a few real-world breakthroughs from people using AI to level up: Take the executive who used a personal AI coach to master persuasive presentations, leading to a 30% boost in client wins. Or the tech entrepreneur who integrated AI into product development with support from a coach, accelerating time-to-market and attracting new investors. Even a retail manager teamed up with an AI coach to analyze customer data and saw a 30% increase in repeat sales within six months. This isn’t about hype. It’s about real change, powered by the right tools and the right support.

Coming soon: Pitstop for Boys, Pitstop for Women and Girls

We believe AI literacy should start young. That’s why we’re launching Pitstop for Boys in October 2025 – a tailored version of our platform for boys aged 12–18. It will include age-appropriate coaching to help teens build confidence, creativity, and future-ready skills including around AI.

In 2026, we’ll also be launching Pitstop for Women and Girls, extending our coaching model to support every life stage because everyone deserves access to smart, supportive coaching — no matter their age or gender.
