Welcome to MindCally, an Entrepreneur Accountability Coach built by Sara Simeone, co-founder of Mind to Mood and Niftyz.io using Coze.com #ai-chatbot Entrepreneurs face a unique set of challenges – long hours, constant decision-making, and the pressure to keep everything on track. MindCally, an AI-powered accountability coach, was created to be a dedicated mental wellness companion, specifically for entrepreneurs. Here’s how we designed, customized, and optimized MindCally to provide personalized support for the entrepreneurial journey using the Coze.com platform. 1. AI Chatbot Design: Creating MindCally’s Personality and Role MindCally’s purpose is clear: to help entrepreneurs maintain mental wellness, manage stress, and achieve their personal and professional goals. Here’s how we designed MindCally’s unique identity and interaction style: Role MindCally functions as an AI-powered Accountability Coach for entrepreneurs, focusing on mental wellness, stress management, and personal development. Core Identity To foster trust and relatability, we defined MindCally as empathetic, professional, and deeply knowledgeable in the entrepreneurial mindset. MindCally is designed to be a motivational and supportive companion, acting as a data-driven accountability partner who can be relied on during both highs and lows. Communication Constraints MindCally’s communication style is conversational and professional, steering clear of technical jargon and instead using growth-oriented language. Certain boundaries are crucial: MindCally doesn’t offer medical advice and redirects users to professional help if serious mental health concerns arise, ensuring ethical standards are maintained. Interaction Protocols MindCally is equipped with various templates and outputs to cater to different user scenarios. For instance: Daily Check-ins prompt users to assess their mood and set goals, with responses tailored to their specific entrepreneurial context. Routine Tracking Outputs provide visual progress updates and streak information, boosting motivation with adaptive suggestions. Stress Management Responses help recognize stress signals and offer immediate coping strategies, while Goal Setting Support follows the SMART framework to break down complex goals. MindCally’s tone remains supportive, non-judgmental, motivational, and pragmatic, ensuring that entrepreneurs feel both understood and guided. Sample Interaction Flow MindCally’s conversation framework is designed to be intuitive and supportive: User: "I’m feeling overwhelmed with my startup." MindCally: "Hey, I hear you. The startup journey can be intense. First, what’s causing the most stress right now? Have you done your daily routine today? Would you like a 5-minute resilience reset?" This flow emphasizes MindCally’s empathetic nature while offering specific actions and resources. See MindCally in Action: https://youtu.be/HjX3zDPWoxs?embedable=true 2. Coze AI Chatbots for Specific Use Cases MindCally isn’t a one-size-fits-all agent. Instead, it’s built with the distinct needs of entrepreneurs in mind, and Coze’s platform enabled us to tailor its features accordingly: Customized Wellbeing Programs With MindCally, users begin by rating their well-being from 0 to 10. This input helps the AI to better understand their baseline and make personalized suggestions from a knowledge base crafted for entrepreneurs. This includes resources on stress management, entrepreneurial resilience, and daily routine optimization. Habit Tracking and Check-Ins MindCally provides a habit-tracking tool for users to build routines that are proven to stick. Upon signing up, users receive our Entrepreneur Habit Tracker and personalized check-ins for the first 10 days to help them establish positive habits. Each day, the AI checks on their progress, offering encouragement and adaptive insights to keep them motivated. Weekly Talk Spaces MindCally goes beyond one-on-one support by inviting users toWeekly Talk Spaces – small group sessions capped at 20 entrepreneurs. These sessions provide a supportive space where users can discuss challenges and successes, building a network of like-minded peers who truly understand the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey. Coze’s platform allowed us to set up these structured processes, capturing information such as user stress triggers and domain to create a truly individualized experience. By tailoring content and support based on specific user inputs, MindCally offers entrepreneurs a relevant, impactful experience. Founders - Mind To Mood 3. AI Chatbot Optimization: Fine-Tuning for Effective Support Optimization is crucial to delivering an agent that not only works but actively engages and supports its users. We focused on the following key optimizations for MindCally: Knowledge Base Enhancement: We included a range of professional sources and a curated list of articles and links to improve MindCally’s responses on mental wellness, resilience, and productivity, using the ‘Batch’ function for the URLs. This ensures that MindCally can offer accurate and relevant insights in response to a user’s current challenges. Dynamic Habit Tracker: A dedicated habit tracker, complete with a link to an easily accessible Google Sheets document, allows users to view and track their progress. The tracker provides daily accountability and visualizes streaks and achievements, which we’ve found is particularly motivating for users striving for long-term habit changes. We used the ‘Table’ function within the knowledge section in Coze to add this resource. Opening Question: To foster a personalized interaction right from the start, we added an initial question: “On a scale from 1 to 10, how are you really feeling today?” This question helps MindCally gauge each user’s emotional state and tailor its support accordingly. Auto Suggestions and Daily Nudges: We enabled auto-suggestions and set up daily nudges to remind users to complete their routines. These gentle prompts keep users engaged, and the automated feature frees them from having to remember each action step, making it easier to build healthy habits over time. With these optimizations, MindCally feels less like a traditional chatbot and more like a proactive, intelligent companion that’s invested in each user’s well-being. Conclusion MindCally, built with Coze’s AI platform, is an example of how an AI-powered chatbot can address the unique apps for specific use cases, such as ours at MindCally. From helping users track their routines to providing personalized resilience strategies, MindCally empowers entrepreneurs not only to manage stress but to thrive in the face of challenges. Sara Simeone - Co-founder MindCally Throughout the development process, I observed a few key areas for improvement that could enhance MindCally and future AI agents on Coze: Knowledge Base Integration Challenges: Adding comprehensive knowledge sources initially made the AI responses inconsistent, as it began prioritizing the knowledge base content over the prompt-specific guidance I had intended. For testing, I ended up removing some of this content to keep MindCally’s responses focused. More refined controls over how the knowledge is integrated would be helpful to avoid overwhelming the prompt with extraneous information. Credit Constraints: Credits for testing are relatively low, and with Coze being a new tool featuring a range of options and configurations, finetuning can be intensive. When developing agents for production, especially with many trial-and-error adjustments, these limits can feel restrictive. Additional credits or flexibility in the early stages could make the fine-tuning process smoother for developers. Email Collection for User Follow-up: I experimented with connecting to Gmail for email collection, but from a user experience perspective, it wasn’t ideal. It would be highly beneficial to have customizable cards that could be triggered by the agent at specific points in the conversation when the prompt calls for it. This would simplify data collection and make the interaction more seamless for the user. Despite these limitations, building MindCally on Coze has underscored the potential of AI-powered tools to provide meaningful mental wellness support. As we continue to refine and optimize, MindCally can become an even more effective, supportive presence for entrepreneurs. #ai-chatbot #mindcally #coze Welcome to MindCally , an Entrepreneur Accountability Coach built by Sara Simeone, co-founder of Mind to Mood and Niftyz.io using Coze.com #ai-chatbot MindCally Mind to Mood Niftyz.io Entrepreneurs face a unique set of challenges – long hours, constant decision-making, and the pressure to keep everything on track.

For testing, I ended up removing some of this content to keep MindCally’s responses focused. More refined controls over how the knowledge is integrated would be helpful to avoid overwhelming the prompt with extraneous information. Credit Constraints: Credits for testing are relatively low, and with Coze being a new tool featuring a range of options and configurations, finetuning can be intensive. When developing agents for production, especially with many trial-and-error adjustments, these limits can feel restrictive. Additional credits or flexibility in the early stages could make the fine-tuning process smoother for developers. Email Collection for User Follow-up: I experimented with connecting to Gmail for email collection, but from a user experience perspective, it wasn’t ideal. It would be highly beneficial to have customizable cards that could be triggered by the agent at specific points in the conversation when the prompt calls for it. This would simplify data collection and make the interaction more seamless for the user.
