Apple Health and AI data sheet
See what SlopeReady reads, stores, and sends.
Last updated: July 25, 2026
SlopeReady works with workouts you already record. It reads Apple Health, computes readiness and training context
on your iPhone, and uses that context for ski preparation, endurance, recovery, and training decisions that account for limitations you report.
Quick summary
Reads
Apple Health with permission
Workouts, sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, activity, training-load signals, and recovery context.
Keeps
Raw health data on device
Raw HealthKit samples stay on your iPhone. SlopeReady stores local plans, summaries, and coach history.
Sends
Minimized AI context
When you use AI coaching, SlopeReady may send aggregate scores, workout summaries, goals, and relevant plan context.
Does not
No workout tracking
SlopeReady does not start workouts, track live GPS, write to HealthKit, or send raw GPS coordinates to the AI.
Why the data matters for ski training
Ski preparation combines eccentric quad strength, aerobic capacity, balance, mobility, sleep debt, recovery,
and the training already in your legs. Apple Health helps SlopeReady judge whether you are building capacity
or stacking fatigue before the trip.
- Readiness adds context when you choose between intervals, strength, mobility, Zone 2, and rest.
- Training load can expose a pre-trip spike before extra work makes the week harder to recover from.
- Sleep, HRV, and resting heart rate help the coach show uncertainty when the signals do not support a clear answer.
- When SlopeReady rolls the 28-day window forward for a new day, recent workouts inform the later part of the plan. The next seven days and changes you make or approve stay in place.
Apple Health categories SlopeReady may read
Apple's Health permission sheet lets you approve or deny each category. The requested set may change as
SlopeReady adds coaching features. HealthKit access remains read-only.
- Workout summaries and workout type
- Duration, distance, elevation, energy, and pace aggregates
- Average and maximum heart rate for workouts
- Resting heart rate trends
- Heart rate variability trends
- Sleep duration and sleep debt signals
- Activity and movement aggregates
- Optional profile context you enter in the app
What may be sent to the AI coach
When you ask the coach for help, SlopeReady sends a compact coaching context that you can inspect. The app
prepares this context for ski training, endurance, recovery, and questions about training around limitations you report.
- A readiness score and confidence level when enough data exists.
- Missing-data indicators that show the coach where its advice has less support.
- Workout summaries from the past several days.
- Your training goal, current phase, ski-season target, and availability when you provide them.
- Plan context, including upcoming sessions and coach changes you accepted.
- Specific read-only results when your question needs them, such as a downsampled heart-rate curve.
Data excluded from AI context
- Your Apple ID, name, email address, phone number, photos, files, notes, or iCloud account.
- Raw full-resolution HealthKit sample streams.
- Latitude and longitude coordinates.
- Reproductive health, medications, allergies, lab results, or medical records.
- Analytics events containing health metrics, chat text, injury notes, or workout details.
Training context built around ski season
SlopeReady uses readiness and Apple Health history to support ski-fitness decisions. The goal is to help you
reach the mountain with stronger legs, better endurance, steadier training load, and a plan that accounts for recovery.
