Changelog

Programs got operational polish — structured checklists that guide setup, explicit publishing workflows, and the tools to manage a program’s lifecycle from draft to live.

• Program checklists — type-aware setup checklists with nested sub-items, customized per program format. The platform tells you what to configure, not just how
• Publish/unpublish flow — explicit state management replacing the old draft toggle. Clear control over when a program goes live and when it comes down
• V2 to V3 migration — a dedicated migration page for existing upcoach users transitioning to the new platform

We built program types — the feature that turns “what kind of program are you building?” into a structured, format-aware starting point. Group coaching, mastermind, bootcamp, certification, challenge, and seven more. Each with the right structure and operational mindset built in.

• 12 program types — Group Coaching, Mastermind, Cohort-Based Course, Bootcamp, Certification, Challenge, Transformation Journey, Workshop Series, 1:1 Coaching, 1:1 Program, Self-Paced Course, and Membership. Each one pre-configured with format-aware scaffolding
• Global Quick-Create — the + button (desktop) and floating action button (mobile) for instant creation of posts, messages, events, and content from anywhere in the platform
• Custom domains — connect your own domain for a fully white-labeled participant experience. Your program, your brand, your URL
• Brand & settings — centralized branding controls applied across the entire organization

This is where upcoach stopped being “another platform” and became something no competitor combines: structured delivery with real accountability. We built a notification system designed for follow-through, not noise — and the commerce engine to sell programs directly.

• Notification system — a unified accountability pipeline spanning events, content, channels, feed, and offers. Three signal classes (Accountability, Conversational, System) with “Silence is Default” — not every action generates a notification, only the ones that matter for follow-through
• Offers & checkout — create program offers with pricing, coupons, and Stripe-powered checkout pages. Participants go from “interested” to “enrolled” without leaving your brand
• Full signup flow — email capture, checkout, profiling, provisioning, program access. End-to-end, from stranger to active participant
• Task lists — structured to-do activities that make between-session work visible. Who completed what, who’s behind, what needs attention

A program platform isn’t real until people can sign up, pay, and get oriented. December was about making upcoach a place you’d invite real participants into.

• Billing system — Stripe-integrated subscription management with plans, trials, and payment processing. Program operators can charge for what they deliver
• User invitations — invite participants by email with branded login pages and acceptance flows. The first touch feels like your brand, not ours
• User onboarding — guided first-run experience with profile setup and program orientation. New participants know exactly where to start
• Rituals maturity — one-time and daily rituals, structured form inputs, AI-generated documents, combined document views. The accountability engine got serious
• View-as — program operators can see programs exactly as their participants see them. No guessing what the experience looks like

Programs need more than content and scheduling — participants need to talk to each other. We built the communication layer directly into the program, not as a bolt-on or a link to Slack.

• Channel messaging — real-time conversations with reactions, file attachments, and audio/video messages. Threaded discussions within program channels
• Feed — a program-level activity stream for announcements, updates, and member posts. The pulse of the program
• Rituals engine (v1) — structured check-in workflows with admin creation, a ritual library, and AI-generated conversation previews. The first step toward between-session accountability
• Interactive media — video embeds, GIF support, and rich media inline within messages and content. Communication that feels modern, not clinical

Programs became real — with structure, scheduling, access windows, and a full events system. This is when “I’m building my program” stopped being a concept and became something participants could experience.

• Space creation wizard — choose your format, get a pre-structured program. No blank canvas — the right sections, the right pacing, the right operational mindset from the start
• Events system — calendar events with ICS invites, timezone handling, and session packages. Book-a-call scheduling for 1:1 programs
• Space access control — early access dates, countdown timers, and section release scheduling. Drip content on your terms
• Space duplication — duplicate any program with date recalculation, enrollment settings, and access offsets preserved. Run the same program for a new cohort in minutes
• Space & event reporting — program-level and per-participant progress data, plus event attendance tracking

Before you can deliver a program, you need the building blocks. We spent the first months building the content engine that everything else sits on.

• Activity Library — create, organize, and reuse content across programs. One activity, many programs — update it once, it updates everywhere
• Worksheets — structured input types (text, scales, choices) with validation, ordering, and rich text. Participants fill them out; program operators see the responses
• Media Library — centralized video and file management powered by Bunny CDN. Upload once, embed anywhere — no file size limits, no third-party hosting
• TipTap editor — rich content editing with embeds, media, and formatting throughout the platform. The same editor powers every content surface
