Prova Endurance: an AI coach that shows its work
An endurance-training coach that uses an MCP-capable AI client to propose research-cited plans without quietly rewriting an athlete’s week.
- For
- Endurance athletes using MCP-capable AI clients
- Worth noticing
- It says the reasoning runs in an existing MCP client, while training data is not the product.
Field notes
The project separates its coaching interface from model inference: the homepage says an existing MCP client performs the reasoning while Prova supplies the coaching context. Athletes can connect intervals.icu or import activity files, then ask the client for guidance. The visible promise is deliberately bounded: Prova proposes plans, cites its research, and does not automatically rewrite the user’s training week. No live coaching output is visible in the supplied extract.
