EQ Coach-Copilot

A digital assistant for equestrian coaches and riders

A digital assistant for equestrian coaches and riders.
It captures lesson guidance, rider reflections, and motion sensor data.

EQ Coach-Copilot combines coaching, rider feedback, and horse motion data in one training diary

Lendon Gray about horse riding and challenges in coaching

“Riding is such a difficult sport because what other sport is there that you can only practice it for like 45 minutes a day?”

Lendon Gray, Olympian, and renowned coach, the founder of Dressage4Kids and a recipient of USEF Lifetime Achievement Award for her lifelong contribution to rider education and horse-human partnership.

How Rider Reflections works

  • Riders record a voice memo anytime – after a solo ride, or groundwork session
  • EQ Coach-Copilot automatically synthesizes the memo providing a text summary
  • For each horse, it builds a personal training Diary from all the independent training sessions and lessons with their coach.

“It is so easy to use the EQ Coach-Copilot and EQ Saddle-Clip during a lesson. Together, they provide a detailed training summary that includes:

  • the coach’s key guidance, corrections, and reminders;
  • the horse’s key performance metrics, including rhythm, impulsion, and symmetry;
  • memorable cues that help the rider quickly revisit the lesson when practicing alone.”

Coaches and trainers, we no longer have to accept the old way as the norm.

It’s time to rethink what we’ve come to accept as normal. We have chance to change it and improve learning.

Dressage training - Coach, Rider and Horse

Dressage

Dressage training relies on rhythm, impulsion, straightness and precision. Correct aids for transitions or particular movements must happen quickly and correctly. EQ Coach-Copilot reminds the rider how to replicate those cues properly and with correct timing.

Show Jumper - competition - training with Equestic

Show Jumping

In Show Jumping, rhythm, adjustability, and straightness determine the quality of every jump. A crooked approach or unbalanced horse can cause a costly rail to fall. EQ Coach-Copilot will keep rider’s focus on desired pace and correct approach while practice jumps alone.

Training the horse - eventing

Eventing

Eventing riders must manage precision, balance, and endurance across multiple phases, with the cross-county phase the most challenging. Riders must remember many things simultaneously and EQ Coach-Copilot helps riders retain key crucial instructions, especially before jumping solid obstacles at speed.

Innovation Awards

Chosen among hundreds of entries from more than 30 countries, EQ Coach-Copilot was honored in both categories of Sports Technology as well as Training and Knowledge-Based Services and Solutions.

Riders, You feel so much, process so much, and try to remember it all.

But some of it naturally slips away. Your progress deserves more support.

When you ride alone, doubt often appears quietly. You hesitate, wondering if the choices you make are truly right for your horse.

You seek clarity from your coach, asking for guidance and reassurance that you’re making progress, however small.

Rider and Coach - finishing the lesson
