## Abstract

An apparatus and method for providing a performance data output for a user is provided. Apparatus may include a computing device including a processor, which may receive a user datum and generate an interface query data structure including at least a query including an input field based on the user datum. The interface query data structure may configure a remote display device to display the input field to the user, receive at least a user-input datum into the input field, retrieve data describing attributes of the user from a database communicatively connected with the processor, and refine the interface query data structure based on data describing attributes of the user from the database. The processor may use a machine learning model including a classifier to correlate the user datum to the interface query data structure and data multipliers into a list and accordingly generate a strategy data.
