Free, and still worth your time

Most free coaching apps give you a taste and then ask for your card. Marlee gives you the whole starting point.

You begin with the Marlee Motivational Analysis, which measures 48 work motivations with up to 98% reliability, grounded in 25+ years of research. Then Coach Marlee, your AI coach for 1,000+ goals across work and personal life, takes you through a complete 8-week program built around your results. You pay nothing, and no credit card is needed.

A plain comparison

What eight weeks of coaching can cost

A top human coach can charge around $1,000 an hour. Eight weeks of regular sessions with someone like that was never an option for most people.

Marlee gives you eight weeks of structured, personal AI coaching for free. It is not the same as sitting with a person, and it does not pretend to be. It is built on evidence-based coaching methodologies co-developed by Michelle Duval, a pioneer in coaching since 1997, and shaped around your own data.

If you later want a person in the room, a certified human coach works from the same results.

What you will not be asked for

The free plan is built so you can try it without strings.

  • A credit card
  • A team before you are ready
  • A long-term commitment

Where to begin

Three good reasons to start today

People come to Marlee for different reasons. Here is where each one tends to begin.

Clarity

I want to understand myself better

Maybe feedback keeps surprising you, or you cannot say why a job suits or drains you. Your results put words to it.

Start here: read your motivations, note the two that surprise you most and ask Marlee what they mean at work.

Progress

I have a goal I keep putting off

A promotion, a harder conversation, a business idea or a healthier routine. Goals stall when the plan ignores how you are motivated.

Start here: choose the program closest to your goal and let Coach Marlee build the weeks around you.

Relationships

I want to work better with someone

One teammate, a manager or a co-founder who sees things completely differently. The friction usually has a pattern.

Start here: compare profiles and ask Marlee how to communicate with that person.

Start for free

Free, and honest about what comes next

The free plan is a real starting point. If you later want more programs, larger teams or human coaching, there are paid options, and the pricing page shows them plainly. Until then, your account stays free.

FAQs

Is this a free coaching app, or a free trial in disguise?

It is a free plan, not a trial. You can create an account, complete your Motivational Analysis and work through one complete 8-week program with Coach Marlee without paying, and no credit card is needed. Marlee's pricing page lists the Starter plan as free, forever.

Paid plans exist for people who want more, such as extra programs or larger teams.

How does a free AI coaching program compare with paying for a coach?

A top human coach can charge around $1,000 an hour, and a human coach brings something an AI cannot, which is a real person in the room. Coach Marlee brings a different strength: it knows your motivations, it is available whenever you want it, and it costs nothing to begin.

Both approaches can sit side by side. If you want a person later, the human coaching bench works from your Marlee data and is trained in evidence-based methodologies co-developed by Michelle Duval.

What will I learn about myself on the free plan?

You will see where you sit across 48 work motivations, from how much structure you want to how you like to make decisions and how you prefer to communicate. The analysis does not measure personality. It describes what motivates you at work.

You also get a human skills and skill gap analysis, which shows where you are strong and where there is room to grow. Many people find the blind spots the most useful part.

Can I use the free plan with my team, or is it only for me?

Both. You can create unlimited connections and workspaces and compare your profile with up to 3 teammates for free. Everybody sees the same kind of results, which makes conversations about working styles much easier.

You do not have to invite anyone to begin. Many people start on their own and bring teammates in once they have seen what the results look like.

Who gets the most from the free plan?

It suits anyone curious about how they work and ready to try a structured goal: a professional weighing a move, a new manager, a founder, a student heading into their first job. If you have ever wished you could try coaching without a big commitment, this is built for you.

If your needs grow, for example a whole team or several programs at once, a paid plan or a human coach is the next step.
