How Orva plans your training
You type: "Sub-4 marathon on October 18th. I can train mornings before work, long runs on weekends. Currently running about 30km a week."
Here's what Orva does with that.
1. The goal becomes structure
The AI extracts the parts that matter: the sport, the target, the date, your availability windows, your baseline. If something's ambiguous, it asks — a short refinement chat, not a 40-field form.
2. The plan is drafted against rules
Orva generates a session-by-session schedule across the whole Arc — but every draft is checked against hard business rules before you ever see it: weekly session caps, spacing between high-intensity days, progressive load, recovery weeks, sessions only inside your stated availability. If the AI drafts something that violates the rules, it gets rejected and redrafted.
3. You refine, then commit
The draft shows up week by week. Too aggressive? Say so in the chat and regenerate. When you accept, the Arc starts and the goal set locks.
4. The plan lives in your day
Every morning at 07:00 you get a push with today's session. The Today view shows the week's progress. The assistant knows the full plan, your last sessions, how they felt (you log RPE and a short note), and what you've been eating — so "should I move tomorrow's intervals?" gets an answer grounded in your actual training, not generic advice.
What it doesn't do
Orva won't coach your running form, yell at you for missing a session, or upsell you on 47 metrics. It keeps the thread of one commitment so you don't have to. That's the job.
