For keynote speakers and training facilitators
Turn your keynote into action.
Turn action into your advantage.
ActionKeeper moves your audience to action with written commitments, weekly check-ins, and coaching. It's the extra service, and the ROI proof, that other speakers can't offer.
The problem
Your program shouldn't end when the event does.
People are moved. They want to take action, but then life happens. The material fades, the intention survives a week or two, and the audience remembers a good day, yet finds it difficult to see real change and impact.
It is not a failure of your content. It's what happens to anything learned once and not reinforced.
~2/3
of newly learned material is gone within days when nothing reinforces it. The classic forgetting curve, confirmed again in a modern replication.

76%
goal achievement among people who wrote their goals down, committed to actions and reported progress weekly, against 43% for those who only thought about them. Writing it down and reporting on it weekly is the whole difference, and it is exactly what ActionKeeper asks every participant to do.

The solution
Extend learning and impact beyond the event.
The learning experience should not end when the event does. ActionKeeper keeps participants engaged with what they learned and helps them follow through on the commitments that create lasting change. And it does it all through an automated process that is simple and effortless for both you and your client.

Which one are you?
Pick the one that sounds like you.
I am a keynote speaker or training facilitator
You want your work to outlast the room, and something real to show the client who booked you.
See how it worksI represent a company or team
You are buying development for your people and you need to know if you got a return on your investment.
Join the waiting listI was at an event
Somebody handed you a code or a link and you would like to know what you have signed up for.
What to expectHow it works
6 steps, 3 run automatically.
Create the program
Name it, write the questions each week asks, and choose when the first check-in lands. Every program runs four weeks, which is how long follow-through holds. Start from a template or build your own.
Invite participants
A QR code on your closing slide, an open registration link, an emailed invitation, or a CSV upload of everyone at once.
Capture commitments
Each person writes one or two commitments and provides feedback on the program.
Weekly action prompt
A check-in email each week, sent by you (automated), asking them what action they took and what impact was made.
Coach next actions
Your AI coach responds to each check-in and helps every participant turn it into one specific next action. It is grounded in behavioral and performance psychology, not a general-purpose chatbot.
Show the client ROI
Give your client a real-time dashboard of participation, commitments, actions, and impact, so they can see the return on their investment for themselves.
What it changes
More impact for your client, more value for your business.
In front of a client
- Propose a multi-week learning and impact experience rather than just a presentation
- Something to answer "how will we know it worked?"
- A way to be in the conversation again when the program finishes weeks later
- Your Competitive Advantage: a service other speakers and facilitators don’t offer. You show them the commitments, actions, impact, and demonstrate their return on investment.
In your business
- A way to connect with and help every participant in the room
- One program built once, then duplicated for the next client
- Discover themes across a cohort you would never have heard of individually
- Boost your credibility to make a real, sustained impact
- Added revenue and profitability
The AI coach
Grounded in the science of behavior change.
We are deliberate about what this claims. ActionKeeper supplies the coaching method: how an intention turns into repeated action, how to work out what actually blocked someone, and how to size the next step so it happens.
That method is grounded in behavioral and performance psychology, drawn from Dr. Jason Jones’ published work and the established research behind it. It holds whether your program is about negotiation, safety training, leadership, or any other topic. The subject stays yours. The AI coach works from your questions and from what each participant writes about their own commitment and obstacles.
The participant writes what they did and what got in the way. The coach responds to that in the wording they use, and they go one more round to arrive at a specific next action. One exchange a week, on the program in front of them, not a chatbot they can open whenever they like. The coaching is action-oriented and straight to the point, usually lasting about two to three minutes.
- Works from what your participants wrote, based on the questions that were asked. The boundary is enforced by the database
- Says it does not know rather than inventing guidance and attributing it to you
- Does not claim to be a person, and hands off rather than playing doctor, lawyer or therapist

Where this came from
Built by a speaker who needed it.
ActionKeeper was not designed in a workshop about what speakers might want. It was built by an actual keynote speaker and training facilitator, Jason Jones, who built it for his own programs. He was tired of presenting programs and never seeing the commitments move to action and impact.
He built this system and ran it with real audiences before it ever became a product. What you are looking at is that system, rebuilt so speakers and training facilitators can run it under their own name to benefit their business and their clients.
Pricing
One number to understand: how many people.
Every plan has everything in it. The AI coach, unlimited programs, client reporting, and all functionality. Plans differ only by how many participants can be in a running program at once, and places come back when a program finishes.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is ActionKeeper for?
Independent speakers, trainers and facilitators who want their work to keep going after the room empties. Your practice is named throughout, and participants know whose program they are on.
How long does setup take?
Approximately 20 minutes for your first program, less after that. You add your practice details, choose the name your emails go out under, name your AI coach, and create a program. You can run yourself through the whole thing as a test participant before a single real person sees it.
Can I use my own logo and colors?
Not in this release. Participants see ActionKeeper's design, with your practice name, your support address and your own name for the AI coach throughout. Emails go out under your name and replies reach you. Custom logos, colors and welcome copy are planned for a later release.
What is the AI coach grounded in?
Behavioral and performance psychology, drawn from Dr. Jason Jones' published work and the established research behind it: how a commitment becomes a habit, what actually sustains motivation, how people learn and adapt under pressure, and how to size an action so it survives a bad week. That is the coaching method, and it holds whether your program is about negotiation, safety or first-line management. The subject stays yours: the coach works from the program you built and from what each participant writes about their own commitment, in their own words. It does not claim expertise in your field, and it says when it does not know rather than inventing an answer with your name on it.
Who can see what a participant writes?
You can see the commitments and progress of people in your own programs. Client organizations see aggregate reporting, not individual reflections. Nobody at ActionKeeper reads participant content in the normal course of running the platform.
What do participants have to do?
Scan a code or follow a link, write down what they are going to do, and then answer one short check-in a week. No app to install and no password to remember: they sign in with a link sent to their email.
Can I export or delete my data?
Yes. Program data exports to CSV whenever you want it, and you can ask for your account and its data to be deleted.
My participants will not use another app.
There is no app. They scan a code or follow a link, and they sign in with a link sent to their email. No download, no password, no account to create. The weekly check-in is a page with four questions on it and it takes about five minutes.
They already have an LMS.
An LMS stores and delivers content. This does something an LMS does not: it asks one person what they committed to, chases it weekly, coaches them when they are stuck, and reports on whether it happened. Most clients run both without either getting in the way.
We already send follow-up emails.
Emails talk at people. This asks them something and responds to the answer. The difference shows up in the data: an email has an open rate, a check-in has a completion rate and a set of commitments you can count.
I do not want AI giving my clients bad advice.
Neither do we, and it is the risk we spent the most time on. The coach works from the program you built and what the participant wrote, nothing else. It is grounded in behavioral and performance psychology, says when it does not know rather than guessing, refuses to play doctor, lawyer or therapist, and never sees another provider's participants. You test it yourself before a single participant sees it.
Will this replace me?
It cannot do what you do in a room, and it is not trying to. Once a week it puts your program back in front of someone for a few minutes and helps them name their next action. That is a job you were never going to do fifty times over by hand.
My client will not pay extra.
Some will not. The providers this is built for tend to fold it into the engagement rather than line-item it, and use it to justify the engagement's price rather than to add to it. What it changes is the answer to "how will we know it worked", which is usually the question standing between a proposal and a signature.
How much of my time does it take?
Building a program is about thirty minutes the first time. After that you duplicate it. During a cohort, the weekly emails, the check-ins and the coaching run without you. You look at the dashboard when you want to.
The ActionKeeper team is here to help you take your presentations and business to the next level. We are here to help you implement this system for greater impact and profitability.
