- Fair use. GTO MAX AI is a coaching and study tool. Use it where real-time assistance is allowed: study sessions, replays, home games, play-money and private tables. Most online poker sites forbid real-time assistance tools in their terms and can close your account.
- Other players' consent. You confirm that everyone at the table you read has agreed to you using a coaching tool, or that the game's rules allow it.
- No financial responsibility. Advice is generated automatically from what the app reads on screen and can be wrong. Every decision and every wager is yours alone; GTO MAX AI (gtomax.ai) is not responsible for any loss, account action or other consequence.
- Legal use. You are of legal age to play where you are, and you use the app only where doing so is lawful. You are responsible for complying with the rules of the site or venue you play at.
- Your data. Screen frames are sent to the AI provider you chose with your own key; player notes and hand histories stay on this computer.

Advanced: preview, test a read, adjust table areas
Shared window Optional: drag a box on the preview to read only the table area (cheaper, more accurate).
Table areas On PokerNow the layout is found automatically from the felt, cards and chips on every read — no marking needed. Boxes you mark here override it; use them to fix a spot or on other sites.
Seats at table
Click a box to select it · drag to move · drag a corner to resize · Delete key removes · drag on empty space to set the capture area. Then press Test one read: the values read appear next to each box.
Manual table setup (advanced — only needed if you chose “Manual layout” in Settings).
With AI vision mode you can skip this tab entirely. Otherwise: 1) take a screenshot, 2) drag a box around the whole table window, 3) drag boxes for each item as prompted.
Tip: switch to the poker window, then come back here within 3 seconds after clicking the button. Seat numbering: your seat is 0, then clockwise 1, 2, …
Take a screenshot to begin.
Teach the card faces (recommended)
With the layout saved and a hand dealt to you, type the two cards you hold (e.g. Ah Kd) and click Capture. Repeat over a few hands until all 13 ranks and 4 suits are learned; card reading then becomes exact for your site.

Upload poker logs PokerNow CSV exports or PokerStars/GGPoker hand-history text files. Every hand is added to the players' memory so exploits are ready before you sit down. No AI calls are made for the import itself.
Players log
Click a player to rename them, read the AI's read and write notes. Notes change the coach's advice against that player from the next decision on.

How to read the table
Capturing the whole monitor. Choosing just the poker window makes reads cheaper and more accurate.
How to use
- Sign in (step 1 on the Coach page) with the username and password you were given; no API key is needed, the reading runs on GTO MAX AI's own keys. Your settings, hand history and players are kept under your own login on this computer. For a one-hour trial or a monthly subscription, message @GTOMAXAI on Telegram.
- Overlay → Play demo hand to see what advice looks like.
- Coach → Start: tick the terms of use once, then Chrome asks which window to share — pick the poker table. The floating coach opens on top of it and advice appears whenever it is your turn, with the reasons and the opponent read. Pick Heads-up / 6-max / 9-max next to the site so the seats are drawn like your table.
- Players: search the log, click a player to rename them or write notes. Notes such as "calling station", "bluffs a lot", "never bluffs", "nit" or "folds too much" change the coach's exploit line against that player at once; the full text also goes to the AI profile.
- Players → Upload poker logs: drop in PokerNow CSV exports or PokerStars-style hand histories to pre-load opponent memory.
- Optional: in Settings choose just the poker window as the table area (cheaper, more accurate), or switch to Manual layout mode if you want to avoid vision API costs.
“Call 60% / Fold 40%” is a mixed strategy: the solver wants you to call this exact spot 6 times out of 10. The GTO line is the pure baseline; the Exploit line is the same spot adjusted for what is known about the opponent (their stats, showdowns and your notes). When nothing exploitable is known, the exploit line is greyed out and the headline is the GTO line.
