ChatGPT is a tool. Sofia is a development platform.
ChatGPT gives you conversational intelligence for one-off questions. Sofia gives you developmental intelligence—tracking your growth across coaching conversations, structured learning, and real-world practice over months. It's the difference between asking "What should I say to my underperformer?" once, and having a coach who remembers your team, your previous conversations, and proactively follows up on your commitments.

"How do I give feedback to my underperformer Maria?"
ChatGPT gives great advice. You close the chat.
"My team member is struggling with delegation."
ChatGPT doesn't remember this is Maria. You re-explain everything.
"Welcome back! How did the feedback conversation with Maria go?"
Sofia remembers Maria, your feedback commitment, and proactively follows up.
ChatGPT is brilliant for one-off questions. Sofia is built for longitudinal development—the kind of growth that happens over months, not minutes. The kind human coaches charge $3,000/month to facilitate.
For $9 more per month than ChatGPT, you get a development platform that actually remembers your story and tracks your growth.
