Learning & Coaching Agent MVP: A Personal Coach Inside Your Learning Product

An AI agent added to your existing course, coaching or training product that plans learning, tracks progress, nudges and checks in. Fixed price from $15K.

Codersarts builds learning and coaching agent MVPs for teams that already have a course platform, coaching program, LMS or training product and want to add a personal AI coach. The agent creates a learning or coaching plan from each user's goals and level, answers questions grounded in your own course material with references to lessons, generates practice questions and feedback, tracks progress and streaks, sends timely nudges and runs weekly check-ins, and escalates to a human coach or instructor when needed. Instructors and coaches get a dashboard of learner progress, common questions and at-risk learners. It integrates with your LMS or app through APIs and supports text and optional voice. Pricing follows our AI agent tiers: $15,000–$20,000 for a focused tutor or coach on one program and $20,000–$30,000 for a full coaching agent with plans, memory, nudges and instructor dashboards, delivered in 6–10 weeks.

We add learning and coaching agents to existing EdTech, coaching and corporate training products. The agent builds a personal learning plan, answers questions from your content, generates practice, tracks progress, sends nudges and runs check-ins, while giving instructors and coaches a clear view of each learner. Fixed price from $15,000, delivered in 6–10 weeks.

What a Coaching Session Looks Like

Learner: I have 3 hours a week. Can I finish the course before my exam on the 30th?

Coach: Yes. I've planned 3 sessions a week, about 55 minutes each, with a review week before the exam.

Learner: I'm stuck on Module 4.

Coach: Let's review it. Here's the key idea from Lesson 4.2, plus 3 practice questions to check it stuck.

How Does the Agent Fit Into Your Product and Team?

The agent ships as a separate, modular service with an API, SDK or embeddable widget, so your team keeps building the core product while we build the agent.

Shared repository in your GitHub from day one; your tech lead reviews pull requests

Integration contracts agreed in week 2, so both teams build in parallel

Model-agnostic LLM layer (Claude, GPT, Gemini or open-source), so you can switch models later

Cost controls from day one: usage limits, caching and model routing

No in-house team? We handle product, design, engineering and deployment end to end.

How Long Does It Take to Build?

Week	Milestone
1	Programs, learner goals, success metrics
2	Content ingestion plan, plan logic, integration contracts
3–5	Agent core, Q&A, practice generation, progress
6–7	Plans, nudges, instructor dashboard
8	Accuracy evaluation on real learner questions
9–10	Pilot cohort, fixes and handover

Focused builds compress weeks 3–7. You see working software every week.

Guardrails, Permissions and Trust

Grounded answers: replies cite your lessons and say when something is outside the course

Academic integrity options: hints and explanations instead of full answers where you choose

Learner data privacy: GDPR, FERPA and COPPA considerations

Human escalation to instructors or coaches

Wellbeing boundaries for coaching topics, with referrals to professionals

What Should the MVP Prove?

Course or program completion rate

Weekly active learners

Practice accuracy over time

Time to answer learner questions

Learner satisfaction and NPS

We instrument these from day one and agree targets in week 1.

Architecture and API documentation

Prompts, tool definitions and evaluation sets

Runbooks for deployment and monitoring

A recorded handover session with your developers

When You Don't Need a Coaching Agent

You don't have content yet. The coach needs material to teach from.

Learners only need a course player. A standard course platform may be enough.

Coaching is fully human by design. Use AI for admin and reminders instead.
