Feedback on every coaching session, so every student keeps growing.
Ovida reviews every recorded session against the coaching standard you teach. It shows students exactly where they can improve, and gives them a clear path to get there. Students learn faster, and your faculty's expertise reaches every session.
This is for you if you:
- run a coach training program or university course
- deliver mentor coaching or supervision
- assess coaches for a credential or accreditation
More people are training as coaches. Assessment hasn't kept up.

Marking a practice session by hand takes time and skill. So many sessions never get detailed feedback.
Faster learning for students. More reach for your faculty.
Students get detailed feedback and a personal development plan immediately after every practice session. Each student focuses on the skills that matter most for their development.
Ovida takes on the transcribing and rubric-matching, so grading takes less time. Your faculty can focus on teaching and developing coaches, and your program can grow without stretching the team.
Use your own coaching model, or start with ready-made skills aligned to the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Core Competencies or the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC) Global Competence Framework.
Students rehearse the exact skill they're building with AI practice partners that respond like a real client. They can try a new approach and go again, as often as they like.
How it works in your program
- Step 1Your student records a session
They coach in Ovida's secure video room, or upload audio, video or transcript from another platform.
- Step 2Ovida reviews it against your framework
Each competency gets a rating and the reasoning behind it, with examples from the session. Feedback and a development plan are ready within minutes.
- Step 3Students practice what they need most
An AI practice partner targets the skills their real sessions showed they need. Students can ask it to show them how it's done, then try again themselves.
- Step 4Faculty step in where it matters most
Faculty and mentor coaches can review progress across many sessions, backed by clear measures, and focus their time where their judgment adds most.
Mentor coaching and supervision, with more time for what matters
Mentor coaches and supervisors arrive already knowing what happened in the session. So the hour goes to the conversation that matters, not to catching up.
Ovida prepares the evidence. The insight, judgment and relationship stay with you.
- Consent handled for you. Each person gives their own consent, and Ovida keeps a record of it.
- Honest reflection. Supervisees can see their own results first, before anyone else.
- Feedback without the wait. Mentor coaches can review a session and share their feedback soon after it ends, so learning keeps moving between appointments.
- Clear examples for credentials. Moments linked to each competency give coaches and their mentor coach specific examples to discuss as they prepare for their next credential.
- Everything in one place. Recordings, transcripts, feedback and progress sit together in Ovida, so nobody has to juggle files, formats or separate tools.
Better for everyone in your program
Get feedback on every session, not just the two that were graded, and practice as often as they like. Early habits are noticed and improved quickly, before they set.
Spend more of their time teaching, mentoring and developing coaches. Their expertise reaches every student, even as cohorts grow.
See every coach's progress, competency by competency, against one consistent standard. Know every student is assessed the same way, whoever they learn with. Show quality to accreditation bodies and partners.

Dr Kathy BennettFaculty, Stellenbosch Business SchoolQuestions coach educators ask
Does Ovida replace assessors or mentor coaches?
No. Ovida supports them. It gives students detailed feedback on demand, aligned to your model and philosophy, so they keep learning between reviews instead of waiting. Your assessors and mentor coaches bring the judgment, context and care that develop a coach.
Can we use our own coaching model?
Yes. Start with ready-made skills aligned to the ICF Core Competencies or the EMCC Global Competence Framework, or we set up your own model and score every session against it.
How do students practice?
An AI practice partner targets the skill the review picked up. Students can also ask it to show them how the skill is done, then try it themselves, as often as they like.
Who can see a coaching session?
Each person controls what is recorded, kept and shared. Your organization can't open a session unless the coach shares it.
Are our sessions used to train AI models?
No. Your sessions are used to create your feedback and nothing else.
