Mobile-First and AI-Enhanced Coaching Solutions Fuel Adoption

The shift toward digital-first learning continues to accelerate. Mobile apps now account for 58% of total platform usage in 2025, driven by widespread smartphone adoption, on-the-go learning behavior, and rapid integration of AI-powered coaching assistants. These platforms offer real-time messaging, video coaching, behavioral insights, and progress tracking—making personalized development accessible to users anytime, anywhere.

Meanwhile, one-on-one coaching remains the leading delivery model, representing 42% of all coaching consumption. Enterprises and professionals continue to favor individualized sessions for leadership development, career growth, and executive performance improvement.

Rapid Growth in Asia Pacific and Emerging Markets

While North America and Europe remain mature coaching markets with high per-capita spending, rapid growth is unfolding across emerging economies. India, Brazil, and Indonesia lead with 40–55% lower enablement costs and fast adoption of mobile-first platforms, resulting in strong double-digit uptake.

By CAGR, China (9.7%) and India (9.5%) are the fastest-growing markets tracked through 2035, outpacing the United States (9.2%). Government programs supporting digital skills development—such as India’s Skill India Mission and the EU’s Digital Skills Coalition—are further accelerating platform adoption.
