What Is Coach?

Coach is Velatir’s enablement agent. It guides people at a few moments that matter and stays quiet the rest of the time. Deciding which services are allowed, and whether a prompt contains sensitive data, is the job of Gatekeeper and Data Protector. Create a Coach configuration, set it as your organisation default or assign it to specific workspaces, and tune what it says.
Coach requires version 1.9.0 or later of the Velatir browser extension. Velatir for Desktop deploys the extension for you. If you manage the extension yourself, make sure that version has rolled out.

What It Does

Each section can be turned on or off independently.
Shown the first time someone in the workspace reaches any AI service.Use it for a short, organisation-wide note: treat output as a draft, keep sensitive information out of prompts unless the service is approved for it, and so on.Use Show the welcome message again to bring it back on a schedule: Only the first time (the default), Every day, Every week, Every 2 weeks, or Every month. The interval counts from when the message was last shown.
A brief intro the first time someone uses a particular service. Turn on Require acknowledgement from user if people should confirm they have read it, by selecting I understand, before they continue. Acknowledgement is off by default.Use Re-introduce the service to show the intro again, so your policy for that service stays fresh: Only the first time (the default), Every day, Every week, Every 2 weeks, or Every month. The interval counts from the last time the intro was shown.
A nudge when the same Data Protector category is triggered repeatedly, for example after several similar prompts have been blocked. Under Category violations before notification from Coach, choose how many violations come before a reminder, from 1 to 10. The default is 3, and the reminder repeats at that interval. This is guidance, not a warning.
You can edit the heading and body of each message. Built-in defaults are a starting point. Change them to match how your organisation talks about AI.

Coach Is Not an Observer or an Enforcer

Gatekeeper and Data Protector review every trace and run as Observer or Enforcer. Coach has no role and gives no allow or block verdict. It delivers messages in the browser at the moments above. To have a finding notify a channel, configure it on Gatekeeper or Data Protector. See Escalations.

​
Language

Coach messages follow the language you set under Settings → Browser extension. You can keep one language for the organisation, follow each person’s browser or OS language, or override it per workspace. Edit the wording per language on the Coach configuration. A live preview shows the notification as it appears in the browser. See Configuring agents.

​
AI Literacy

Coach is what produces AI Literacy insights. The grade reflects how cleanly AI is used and, when you require acknowledgement on service introductions, how often those messages are acknowledged. Until a Coach is assigned and people start seeing messages, the AI Literacy view stays empty.
