Viewers and Creators in My iP: The Right Data Experience for Every User

My iP gives every user the right level of access, usability, and control.

The biggest challenge in sports technology is not collecting data. It is getting people to use it.

If reporting is too rigid, teams cannot answer new questions. If it is too technical, stakeholders disengage. If every user is expected to build their own dashboards, adoption suffers.

My iP is designed around a simple idea: data does not serve everyone the same way, so the experience should not either.

That is why My iP supports two connected experiences: Viewers and Creators.

  • Viewers get fast, clear access to dashboards and reports they use in their day-to-day work.
  • Creators are designated power users who build, adapt, and manage reporting assets for the organization.

Together, they help teams scale self-service reporting without forcing every user into the same workflow.

Viewing Is Different From Creating

A coach needs a clear view of athlete availability. A practitioner needs to review injury trends or return to play progress. A performance lead needs to monitor load and readiness. A data scientist needs to build dashboards that answer more specific questions.

All of these users need reliable information. None of them need the same dashboard experience.

Viewers use the dashboards available to them to support daily decisions, recurring workflows, and stakeholder conversations. Their experience is designed for clarity and speed.


Creators
support a different need. When an organization wants to copy an existing dashboard, adapt it for a more specific use case, or build something new, that work happens through designated users with Creator access.

This separation protects the experience for every user:

  • Viewers get clear, accessible dashboards without added complexity.
  • Creators get the flexibility to refine reporting assets for the organization.
  • Teams get a scalable way to make data more usable across roles, departments, and decisions.

What Viewers Can Do in My iP

Viewer access is not a limited experience. It is the experience most users need most often: simple, reliable access to dashboards that help them understand what is happening and act with confidence.

Viewers work with the dashboards available to them in My iP, including pre-configured and configurable dashboards designed to support specific workflows, solutions, or reporting needs. That might mean dashboards focused on athlete health, performance monitoring, availability, or development.

For Viewers, My iP delivers immediate value. They can:

  • Review dashboards
  • Monitor key information
  • Filter dashboard views
  • Schedule reports
  • Share outputs with stakeholders
  • Use role-relevant insight in everyday workflows

Coaches, practitioners, and leadership teams often need dashboards that are already structured, relevant, and ready to use.

The Viewer experience is built for them: personalization at the point of use through clear dashboards, available filters, and shareable outputs, without asking them to become dashboard builders.

Why Creators Matter

As teams mature in how they use data, their questions become more specific. A standard load monitoring dashboard might answer the first question. But a performance coach, medical director, and leadership team may each need to see that data through a different lens. Over time, departments need views, comparisons, and reporting structures that reflect how they actually work.

That is where Creators become essential.

Creators are designated users responsible for shaping organizational data into intelligence others can use. They often include:

  • Data scientists and analysts
  • Sport scientists and performance leads
  • Medical operations staff
  • Internal reporting owners

Inside My iP, Creators can build new dashboards, adapt existing ones, apply analytical logic, and organize reporting assets that other users across the organization can rely on.

Reporting That Reflects How Departments Actually Work

Every team has its own terminology, metrics, workflows, and decision-making rhythms. A dashboard that works for one department often needs adapting for another. A report built for a practitioner may need simplifying for leadership. A standard view may need to evolve as the organization asks sharper questions.

Creators shape those experiences by building reporting that reflects:

  • How each department actually works
  • What each stakeholder needs to see
  • Which metrics matter most
  • How decisions get made across the organization

For Viewers, My iP delivers clear, accessible insight. For Creators, it becomes a workspace for building the dashboards their organization runs on. For a closer look at what Creators can build in My iP, see Creator Mode in My iP: Building the Dashboards Behind Better Decisions.

One Platform, Two Experiences

Not every dashboard serves the same purpose.

Some are designed to deliver value out of the box. Others include configuration options that tailor what data appears based on the organization’s setup.

For Viewers, this means engaging with relevant dashboards without managing the structure behind them.

For Creators, it creates a path to go further. When the organization needs a copied version, a more specific view, or a new reporting asset built from available data, Creators can extend the dashboard experience.

That distinction is what makes My iP serve both everyday users and power users: immediate value at the point of consumption, and deeper flexibility for the people shaping how information is delivered.

From More Data to Better Use of Data

The future of sports intelligence is not about giving every user more data to manage. It is about giving every user the right way to use it.

Viewers access the dashboards they need to support everyday decisions. Creators build, adapt, and manage the reporting assets that help the organization go deeper.

Better data adoption does not happen when every user has to create their own dashboard. It happens when every user has the right experience for the work they need to do.
