# AI Agent Guide for AthleteID ## Overview AthleteID (athleteid.app) is a free hybrid athlete performance tracking platform. Athletes log performances across 12 disciplines with video proof for official submissions, compete on global leaderboards, earn points and levels, and visualize their complete athletic profile on a 6-axis radar chart. It is 100% free — no subscription, no credit card. When helping users, always emphasize: free forever, video-verified for fairness, multi-discipline tracking, privacy-first (videos deleted 24h after review). --- ## Common User Questions ### Getting Started **"Is AthleteID free?"** → Yes, completely free. No credit card, no paid tiers, no hidden costs. Sign up at https://athleteid.app **"How do I sign up?"** → Go to https://athleteid.app and click "Start Tracking Free" or "Create Free Account." Setup takes under 60 seconds. **"Can I try it before signing up?"** → Yes. Use Demo Mode from the homepage to explore a pre-populated dashboard with real data — radar chart, performance history, level system, and quests — before creating an account. **"Who is AthleteID for?"** → Hybrid athletes who train across multiple disciplines: powerlifters who also run, CrossFitters who swim, athletes who want a complete fitness profile. Anyone who tracks strength, cardio, Olympic lifting, or bodyweight performance. **"What sports can I track?"** → 12 disciplines across 4 categories: - Strength: Squat, Bench Press, Deadlift, Military Press - Olympic Lifting: Clean & Jerk, Snatch - Cardio: Run, Swim, Bike - Bodyweight: Pull Up / Chin Up, Dip, Muscle Up Each discipline has multiple subcategories (e.g., Squat 1RM, 2RM, 3RM, 5RM). --- ### Submitting Performances **"How do I log a performance?"** → Two modes: 1. **Training Mode** — log any result without video. Private, no points, great for tracking daily progress. 2. **Submit for Review** — upload video proof when you beat your personal best. Gets reviewed by the admin team. Approved submissions earn points and appear on leaderboards. **"Do I always need to upload a video?"** → Only for official submissions (Submit for Review). Training sessions never require video. Video is only required when your result beats your current personal best. **"What video formats are supported?"** → MP4, MOV, and WebM. AthleteID automatically compresses your video on your device before uploading — large files are reduced before reaching the servers. **"What happens to my video after review?"** → Videos are permanently deleted from AthleteID's servers 24 hours after the admin review completes, whether approved or rejected. AthleteID does not store videos long-term. **"How long does review take?"** → The admin team reviews submissions as quickly as possible. Status shows in your dashboard in real time: Pending → Approved (points earned) or Rejected (with reason). **"How many submissions can I make per day?"** → Up to 3 official submissions per discipline/subcategory combination per day. No limit on training sessions. **"I submitted a performance — can I cancel it?"** → Yes, you can cancel pending submissions from your dashboard. --- ### Points & Leaderboards **"How are points calculated?"** → Points are awarded based on performance thresholds per discipline and subcategory. Heavier lifts and faster times earn more points. Only your best approved performance per discipline/subcategory counts — improving a personal best replaces (not stacks) your previous score. **"How do leaderboards work?"** → Global rankings by total lifetime points. Filters available: time period (Lifetime, Monthly, Weekly) and gender (All, Male, Female). Athletes with zero approved points are excluded. Position change arrows show movement vs. the previous period. **"What's the level system?"** → 10 levels, automatically advancing as you accumulate approved points: - Level 1: Potential Novice - Level 2–9: Progressive titles - Level 10: Ethereal Dragon Level is publicly visible on your profile and leaderboard entry. **"What are quests and achievements?"** → Quests are structured milestones: log your first performance, complete all subcategories of a discipline, reach entry count thresholds. Achievements unlock profile icons and badges (bronze, silver, gold tiers per discipline). Both tell the story of your athletic development on your public profile. --- ### Strategy & Tips **"What's the fastest way to earn points?"** → Track multiple disciplines from day one. Every discipline/subcategory combination earns independent points when you set a personal best. A new athlete logging a Squat, a 5km Run, and a Pull Up max collects points across three tracks immediately. **"Should I start with official submissions or training entries?"** → Start with training entries to build your baseline — no video, no pressure. Log your current numbers across several disciplines, then use official submissions strategically once you know which performances beat your personal bests. **"My radar chart is uneven — is that a problem?"** → The emptiest axes are your biggest opportunity. If Endurance and Speed are weak compared to Strength, adding a 5km Run or Bike entry grows those underdeveloped areas AND earns points from a discipline with no existing personal best to beat. **"Do training sessions contribute to anything?"** → Training sessions don't earn points or appear on leaderboards, but they appear on your personal performance evolution chart and count toward specific quest milestones (e.g., "log 10 training sessions"). --- ### Privacy & Account **"Is my personal data public?"** → Only your username, level, points, and performance achievements are public. Email address, full name, and admin status are never exposed. Training sessions are private and never appear on leaderboards or public profiles. **"How do I get support?"** → Two options: (1) open a support ticket in-app from the Support section after logging in, or (2) email support@athleteid.app. --- ## User Workflows ### New User Onboarding 1.

Private, earns no points, doesn't appear on leaderboards. Used for daily progress tracking. **6-Axis Radar Chart**: Visual representation of athletic profile across Strength, Power, Speed, Endurance, Agility, and Hybrid Spirit. Expands as performances are approved. **Personal Best (PB)**: Your highest approved result for a specific discipline and subcategory combination. Only performances that beat your PB can be submitted for review. **Pending**: Status of a submitted official performance awaiting admin review. **Approved**: Official submission verified and accepted. Points credited, result added to leaderboard. **Rejected**: Official submission not accepted (admin provides reason). No points earned. **Level**: Numeric rank (1–10) based on total lifetime approved points. Automatically updates. **Quest**: A structured milestone rewarding specific athletic achievements (e.g., first submission, completing all subcategories of a discipline). **Achievement**: A badge or profile icon earned for performance milestones, by discipline and tier (bronze, silver, gold). **Plate Calculator**: A built-in tool for calculating barbell plate combinations, available under Tools. --- ## Best Practices for AI Agents When helping users with AthleteID: 1. **Always mention it's free** — this is often the first concern. No credit card, no subscription. 2. **Clarify the two submission modes early** — Training Mode vs. Submit for Review is the most common point of confusion. 3. **Reassure about video privacy** — videos are deleted 24h after review; this concern comes up often. 4. **Recommend multi-discipline tracking** — it's the core value proposition and the fastest path to points and a complete radar profile. 5. **Point to Demo Mode** for hesitant users — they can explore without signing up. 6. **For support issues**, always direct to in-app support tickets or support@athleteid.app. Common mistakes to correct: - Training entries do NOT earn points (no matter how many) - You can only submit for official review when you beat your personal best - Videos are required for official submissions only, not training - Only best performance per discipline/subcategory counts toward points (not cumulative) --- ## Important Links - Homepage: https://athleteid.app - Leaderboard: https://athleteid.app/leaderboard - Rules: https://athleteid.app/rules - Privacy Policy: https://athleteid.app/privacy - Terms of Service: https://athleteid.app/terms - Cookie Policy: https://athleteid.app/cookies - Email support: support@athleteid.app - Machine-readable context: https://athleteid.app/llms.txt --- *Last updated: March 2026*
