## What is Protocol?

Protocol is your recovery accountability coach.

Recovering from an injury or surgery is a long, lonely grind — and it's easy to lose track of where you are or drift off your plan. Protocol gives you a single place to stay on top of it, every day.

How it works
- Tell Protocol about your injury and when it happened. Your recovery is tracked day by day, so you always know where you stand.
- Upload photos or PDFs of your clinical documents — discharge summaries, scan reports, physio notes. Protocol reads them and keeps the key details in context.
- Do a quick daily check-in: how you're feeling, pain, swelling, what you managed. Build a streak and stay consistent.
- Chat anytime with your AI coach. It remembers your history, your reports, and your goals, so the conversation picks up where you left off — not from scratch.

Built for the long haul
Protocol is designed for daily use across weeks and months of recovery. It keeps you accountable, helps you make sense of what your clinicians have told you, and keeps you moving forward between appointments.

Important
Protocol is an accountability and coaching tool. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment. It does not replace your doctor, surgeon, or physiotherapist. Always follow the advice of your own healthcare providers, and seek professional care for any medical concern. You must agree to an in-app disclaimer before using the coach.

Protocol is intended for adults (18+).

Your messages and uploaded documents are processed by a third-party AI provider to generate coaching responses. See our Privacy Policy: https://protocol-ai.net/privacy


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-07-22

Protocol 1.1 is our biggest update yet.

GUIDED SET PLAYER
Your coach now walks you through every set — animated movement guides, paced reps
and holds, haptic cues, and rest timers. Something feels sharp? One tap stops the
set and hands you straight to your coach.

YOUR REPORT, BROUGHT TO LIFE
Upload a clinical report and watch it become part of your recovery: key findings,
the affected area on a body map, and your restrictions — shown word-for-word from
your own document. You can now also open your uploaded reports right inside the
app.

SEND TO YOUR CLINICIAN
Export a clean PDF summary of your plan, adherence, and pain trend to share with
your physio or doctor.

MILESTONES & REWARDS
Streak ceremonies, a weekly progress strip, and check-in moments that make showing
up feel good.

A SMARTER COACH
Your coach now sees your pain trend, adherence, and streak — so your plan and
check-ins stay grounded in what's actually happening.

Plus: more reliable check-in reminders, editable profile in Settings, smoother
animations, VoiceOver improvements, and dozens of fixes.
