Hey there! I'm Regaind's CTO and will be happy to answer your questions :)
We built this as a coaching tool aimed at helping amateurs take better photos, in the context of building a smart and flexible automatic roll curation system that goes beyond the "bad exposition/motion blur detection" that's often used. The end goal is to fluidify the use of photos by killing the last bottleneck: sorting.

I haven't seen any comments that I would classify as coaching. Instead they seem to be simple critiques.
"Overall, this image is good, but it could be great." https://keegan.regaind.io/p/whFZsOsRRfG4sRBGCDiA7g
"The blur and the subject together, so good. " https://keegan.regaind.io/p/HopS2XrnSmGhXiMg6AFoLA
"This is a solid image." https://keegan.regaind.io/p/USKPgJgfRE-h_n7rh2QnHg
"So simple, but so good" https://keegan.regaind.io/p/xbQHksWyRsOPWhW3hhs6RA
Don't get me wrong, I think this is pretty cool, but there is no real actionable feedback, so there unless you can guess as to what triggers the higher scores, there isn't much coaching, so much as "gaming" the AI.
Hey there,
Coaching/advice is provided when you score much lower than that! We kinda don't take the risk of telling you "improve your composition" when the overall picture looks good and the non-standard composition may actually be what makes it work so well.
Just a few examples with coaching:
