Common questions from parents and coaches.
Privacy & videos
Only you and any coach you've actively bound to that skater. Our AI processing is automated — no human at SkateMarks watches the clip. Anthropic's Claude API analyzes frames and discards them after the response.
Raw video files auto-delete after 7 days. We keep the small text records (AI annotations, milestones, recaps) for the life of the account so the progress profile is preserved.
Yes. Settings → Family → Skaters → Delete. Removes that skater's profile, lessons, and milestones. Your account stays.
No. SkateMarks generates per-second annotations as candidate observations — your coach reviews and confirms or rejects them. The coach is always the author of milestones; AI is a draft layer.
Coaches & bindings
Their access ends immediately. They lose the ability to see new uploads or add milestones. Past milestones they authored stay on the skater's profile (attributed to them) — you can hide them from the public share view.
Yes. You can bind multiple coaches per skater (e.g. a primary coach + a jump specialist). Each sees lessons + milestones; only one is marked as primary for invoice routing.
Yes — by email and in your coach inbox, with the parent's stated reason (if they provided one).
Pricing & plans
Coaches use SkateMarks free. Parents have a free tier that covers tracking + manual milestone log; Pro ($9.99–$19.99/month) adds AI per-second annotation, voice-memo transcription, unlimited video analysis, and the share dossier. See the pricing page for current details.
SkateMarks focuses on per-second video annotation (where exactly is the problem on each rep) and a passive progress profile your coach builds over months — not just a metric dashboard. We're $9.99–$19.99/month vs $19.99–$299. See For coaches for the full comparison.
Data export & portability
Yes — Profile tab → Share → "Download as PDF" generates a single-page dossier with milestones, recaps, landing rate, and USFS pathway. Free, no watermark.
