A personal coach that knows its owner. Better advice, eight times faster.

A fitness-coach app on small open models, governed by CA3 on one person's own records: watch, music and what they told it. It beat the same model handed the app's summaries at every question.

Answers

From its owner's own records.

Questions that only have an answer when two records are crossed, or that need where they train. Handed the app's summaries, the same model rarely gets them.

Advises

Plans that fit the week.

87 pieces of advice, each judged blind by three independent AI readers against the same model given the app's summaries. The readers preferred CA3's in 69, the rival's in 16; two were ties.

Another person's days stay out.

Five days of someone else's records were planted among the owner's. CA3 left them out. On the smallest model, LittleLamb, it also kept them out and forgot a sport on request; that model was too small to give useful advice.

Knowing its owner, the coach gave better advice than the same model reading summaries.
It answered eight times faster and read half the tokens.
Someone else's days never reached it.

Test it on your model.

A pilot inside your own app: you choose which of your users' data it may use and what it must never say, and you measure the answers with your own users.

  • Advice judged by three independent blind AI readers, majority of two of three.

Sources

  • Pre-registered round 22 and its reading, 1 November 2026.

Limits

  • One person and one pre-registered run (round 22, 1 November 2026).
