CONNECT YOUR OWN AI (KINETIC PRO) Kinetic works with any AI app that supports MCP connectors. Your AI can read only the training and nutrition data you choose, suggest training plans and meal plans for your review, and if you allow it log meals and add to your shopping list. Stored encrypted, and you can revoke access anytime. Training plans and meal plans always need your approval. Meal logging and shopping-list additions can apply automatically only if you allow it for that connection, with Undo available. Optional notifications tell you when your AI has something ready to review. Notification messages never contain your data.
