The unaccompanied read: what your letterhead and your wording do when you are not in the room

Ember Console is a session-report builder for coaches, in closed beta, and the report it builds gets read somewhere you are not. Call that the unaccompanied read. Your letterhead and your wording are the two things you set for it, and the file type settles who can change the words after it leaves.

The coach Sarah West, in the corpus harvested 2026-07-31, puts it from the other side: “I was sat at my desk when I opened my second autism assessment report last week.” Nobody was sitting with her. An assessment is not a coaching report, but the chair is the same, and your letterhead sits above whatever you wrote underneath it.

What should be on a coaching letterhead?

Your name, a way back to you, and no claim you cannot back. On 2026-10-09 the “letterhead template” results opened with Microsoft Word, Canva, Adobe Express and template.net: four design galleries, no AI Overview, and nothing on what belongs on a coaching report.

My list, not a standard:

1. Who wrote this, and how to reach them.
2. The date, and which session it covers.
3. Credentials you can back, and nothing past them.
4. Who else may read the page.

Line three is where a coaching report gets mistaken for something else. My rule for lived-experience material: community language, no efficacy claims, and no borrowed clinical furniture that invites the client to read the page as a diagnosis.

In Ember Console the template carries your letterhead and a set of boxes, each box with a prompt and an eval. The landing page says: “Stop managing recordings, letterheads, language preferences, and AI prompts by hand.” I walked those boxes in your letterhead and your sections.

Which words does a client reread?

The ones that sound like the argument they have been having since school. “Lazy” is the correction that recurs most across the 2026-07-31 coach corpus: executive dysfunction is not laziness. Write that a client did not follow through, and you hand that word back to them in writing, under your letterhead.

It runs the other way too. The corpus’s self-coaching layer records that ADHD adults, after a lifetime of criticism, do not even have language for their own success, so the line naming what went right is the one to write slowly.

Then the leaving. The pricing page states that every plan keeps your letterhead and exports to PDF or Word, and the two formats do different things once the client has the file. One is a page to read. The other is a document they can type into.

Decide which the client gets before you export. If it will be reread rather than worked on, the reread test is the shape that survives one page.

What is not stated yet?

Both of my fact sheets for this piece are blank, so the honest answer is most of it.

Which file types exist beyond PDF and Word, if any. The pricing page names those two and stops.

Whether a report can be sent to the client from Ember, or only downloaded. Until I write that down, assume you download and send it yourself.

How the letterhead is set: upload or typed fields, per template or per coach. Whether “language preferences” on the landing page means which language the report is in or which words it picks, and whether that sits on the template, the client or the one report.

One question is answered as far as it goes: the Individual plan names unlimited templates at $8 a month billed yearly. Whether a second letterhead comes with it, my sheet does not say.

Set the page for the read you will not be in the room for.

Questions people ask next?

Does Ember Console export to Word?

The pricing page states that every plan keeps your letterhead and exports to PDF or Word. Whether any other file type exists is not stated; my export fact sheet is unanswered.

Can I send the report to the client from Ember Console?

Not stated. The product facts describe a report editable in the Ember dashboard that exports to PDF or Word, and say nothing about sending. Treat it as a download.
