Mid-Am, state qualifying, regional events

Your data is in five apps.
Your coaching is in none of them.

Import from the launch monitor formats you already use, keep a season of context in one place, and prep for courses you’ve never seen.

Before anything else

What we don’t do

You’re going to read this page like an audit, so here’s the audit up front.

  • We can’t see your swing the way your coach can. An instructor standing behind you reads sequencing, low point and pressure shift in real time. We read video you upload and the data you bring. Those are different instruments and we’re not going to blur them.

  • We don’t manufacture numbers your device didn’t give us. If your export has no club path column, there is no club path answer. Inferring one would be worse than useless at your level.

  • We’re not a strokes-gained laboratory. If your entire question is a tour-baseline benchmarking exercise, there are tools built only for that. Ours is a coaching relationship that reasons across your whole season.

  • When it doesn’t know, it says so. That is a design decision, and it’s the one we’d most like you to test in the first week.

Everything in one place, finally

The data already exists. It’s just scattered across a launch monitor app, a stats app, a video folder, a notes file, and your memory.

Launch monitor sessions

Rapsodo, Garmin, TrackMan, FlightScope, SkyTrak, Foresight, GSPro, Awesome Golf and generic CSV — auto-detected from the file, or parsed from a screenshot of the summary.

Rounds, at hole resolution

Full scorecards with hole-by-hole stats, or upload a scorecard image and let the parser read the common formats.

Shots on the course

GPS shot capture from phone or watch, with automatic swing detection on Apple Watch, bulk sync and club assignment afterwards.

Practice sessions

Shot-level logging with media attached per shot, and a session-level read rather than a table of rows.

Swing video

Upload a swing and get a read on it, held alongside the rounds and sessions from the same weeks.

The bag

Every club with real specs — and on a recent iPhone, a LiDAR scan that reads loft, lie, length, offset, bounce and sole width.

Brand names identify file formats we read. No partnership, no endorsement, and no claims about any device’s accuracy — we read what your device reports.

A season of context, not a one-off answer

The reason a lesson resets every time isn’t the instructor. It’s that nothing between sessions is written down in a form anyone can reason over.

Your coach keeps a working assessment of your game, the hypotheses it’s currently testing, what it has already ruled out, and how each of those has tracked across the season. Ask in September and it answers from March.

Hypothesis

Left misses under pressure correlate with a faster transition, not with the grip change in April.

Evidence since

Nine competitive rounds, four sessions with tempo logged, one swing video from each month.

Status

Holding. Worth taking to your coach with the video rather than settling it here.

Courses you’ve never seen, prepped before you get there

Qualifying moves you around. Half the field grew up on the course and you got one practice round, if that.

Before you travel

Course and tee data, and a preparation read on what the layout will ask of your game specifically — not a generic yardage book summary.

On the morning

Prep notes for the conditions on the day, and a warmup built for the window you actually have between arriving and the first tee.

During and after

Distances and hazard carries while you play, shots captured from phone or watch, and an analysis afterwards that joins the round to the rest of the season.

Your coach, with the receipts

Invite your instructor and choose exactly what they see — profile, rounds, practices, stats, swing videos, coaching analyses, goals, practice plans. They get a roster, shared notes and a thread. You keep the switches and can revoke any of it at any time.

The value to them is the same as the value to you: an hour that starts from six weeks of evidence instead of ten minutes of trying to remember what happened.

The resolution this persona actually thinks at:

Club path is just too out to in. Feel like it's because I'm bottoming out too far behind the ball. Is there a TrackMan stat that would tell me that?

The fair questions

“An AI can't see my swing like my coach can.”

Correct, and we don't claim otherwise. What we hold is the season-long context your coach structurally can't — every session, every round, every hypothesis and what happened to it.

“Will it just give me generic answers?”

It reads your imported sessions and rounds before it answers, and it's built to say it doesn't know rather than fill the gap. Test that in week one — it's the fastest way to find out whether this is worth your time.

“I already track everything in a spreadsheet.”

Then you already believe the premise. The difference is that a spreadsheet doesn't read your rounds back to you in September and point at what it noticed in March.

Common questions

Straight answers, at the resolution you asked at.

Is AI golf coaching useful at a single-digit handicap?

It depends on what you expect from it. It will not out-diagnose a good instructor watching your swing — that isn't the trade. What it does hold is a season of context in one place: every session, every round, every hypothesis you tested and what happened afterwards. At a low index, improvement is mostly a memory and measurement problem, and that is the part software is genuinely better at.

Can I bring my launch monitor and round data into one place?

That's the intended shape. GolfSalt reads exports from Rapsodo, Garmin, TrackMan, FlightScope, SkyTrak, Foresight, GSPro and Awesome Golf, plus a generic CSV path, and it detects the format from the file. Those sessions sit alongside your rounds, your bag, your swing videos and your goals, so the coaching reasons across all of it rather than one silo.

Will an AI coach just give me generic advice?

It reads your imported data and your rounds before it answers, and when the record doesn't support a conclusion it is built to say so rather than fill the gap. If you ask it something your data cannot answer — a club path question with no path data in the file, for instance — the useful response is that it doesn't know, and that's what you should hold it to.

How do I prepare for a course I've never played?

GolfSalt generates preparation notes for the specific course and conditions before you tee off, drawing on the course and tee data plus what it knows about your game — where your miss is expensive on that layout, which tees fit your carry numbers, what the round is likely to ask of you. It is a preparation aid, not a substitute for a practice round if you can get one.

Can my swing coach use this with me?

Yes. You invite them, and you choose surface by surface what they can see: profile, rounds, practices, stats, swing videos, coaching analyses, goals, practice plans. They get a player roster, shared notes and a thread to talk in. Permissions are yours and revocable at any point.
