Your whole roster, on one screen.
The coach portal is a web app. Open a browser on a laptop at the office, a desktop in the lab or a tablet on the floor: no install, no App Store, no waiting. Program sessions, follow velocity trends, catch the athletes who are slipping and message them directly. Everything your athletes record in the ORCA app lands here, live.
Open the portal and know exactly where every athlete stands.
- Roster dashboard athlete activity, upcoming training, recent sessions and key signals at a glance.

- Athlete groups organise by team, discipline, remote coaching group or your own categories.
- Training activity monitoring sessions completed, frequency, volume and inactivity across the roster.
- Performance alerts athletes with declining velocity or inactivity surface automatically.
The full velocity picture, athlete by athlete, over time.
- Velocity trend analysis exercise-specific velocity over time, with meaningful changes flagged.
- Load–velocity profiles visualise each athlete's load-to-velocity relationship.
- Estimated 1RM tracking generate and follow estimated 1RM progression from velocity data.
- Personal records heaviest loads and fastest recorded velocities, by exercise.
- Training volume analysis weekly volume and how it splits across training qualities.
- Body weight tracking body-weight changes read alongside training and performance.
Build the session once, push it to the athletes who need it.
- Workout programming exercises, sets, reps, loads, rest, training qualities and instructions.
- Workout templates save and reuse your programming so the next block takes minutes.
- Workout assignment send complete sessions straight to individual athletes.

Activity, upcoming training and recent sessions for the whole roster on one screen. Performance alerts push the athletes with declining velocity or a gap in training to the top, so your attention goes where it matters instead of where it is loudest.
Readiness monitoring →
Build the block. Assign it. Track it.
Create workouts with exercises, sets, reps, loads, rest periods, training qualities and instructions. Save the ones that work as templates, assign complete sessions to individual athletes, and follow scheduled and completed work across the roster from one training calendar.
Why VBT beats % of 1RM →
Every rep an athlete records, in context.
Velocity trends by exercise, load–velocity profiles, estimated 1RM progression, personal records, weekly volume by training quality and body weight, all on one profile. Coach-assigned sessions and the training athletes build for themselves sit side by side.
1RM from load-velocity →
Talk to athletes where their training lives.
Message athletes straight from the coach portal to the ORCA athlete app. Share adjustments, ask about a session, or follow up on a flagged trend, all in the same thread as their training data.
Coach Assistant.
Ask questions about your roster in plain language. It reads the data you already collected: who is trending down, who has not trained in ten days, which athletes are ready to test. It analyses the trend, points you at the athletes who need attention, and drafts the follow-up message for you.
- “Which athletes are trending down on squat velocity this month?”
- “Who hasn't trained in the last ten days?”
- “Summarise this week's volume for the sprint group.”
- “Draft a check-in message for the athletes flagged today.”
