Each one in a paragraph
Onyx Coach
€29 a month, unlimited clientsTrainers who coach in the gym as well as online and want one price.
Built around the session on the gym floor: you log sets, reps, RPE and rest live from your phone while the client lifts, and online clients use the same free app. Programs, check-ins with photos and measurements, a calendar, your own exercise library, a built-in AI and a standard connection to Claude or ChatGPT are all in the €29 plan. Elite at €79 adds more premium client slots for the AI features. No add-ons, no client tiers, human support in every plan.
What it does not do: meal plans, in-app payments, video calls, a white-labelled app.
Onyx Coach pricingTrueCoach
$26.34 to $136.99 a monthOnline coaches with a stable roster under 20.
Three plans capped at 5, 20 and 50 active clients, with a custom quote above that. The core features are the same on every plan; Standard and Pro add wearable integrations and Zapier. Simple, well liked by strength coaches, and the 90-day money-back guarantee on annual plans is unusual. The Standard to Pro jump ($57.99 to $136.99 at client 21) is the thing to plan around.
TrueCoach pricing, explainedEverfit
Free to 5 clients, then $19 to $290 a monthSmall rosters, and nutrition-led online coaches.
The only one with a permanently free plan, for up to five clients. Pro is a slider by client count ($19 at 5, $95 at 50, $290 at 300) and four things are sold as add-ons: automations from $29, meal plans $39, an on-demand library $25 and payments $9. Cheap at ten clients, less so at fifty with automations on.
Everfit pricing, explainedMy PT Hub
$25, $59 or $215 a monthTrainers who want unlimited clients and nutrition in one flat plan.
Starter is $25 for three clients; Premium at $59 gives unlimited clients, unlimited workouts and nutrition plans, an AI workout builder and automated check-ins. Payments, bookings and habit coaching are in every plan. Add-ons exist (a branded app for $95 one-time, a white-label app at $145 a month, Zapier $19), but the base plan is complete. The closest to Onyx on pricing philosophy, with nutrition and without the in-gym logging.
My PT Hub pricingPT Distinction
$19.90, $59.90 or $89.90 a month, plus per clientTrainers who want their own branded app on a mid-range plan.
Basic is $19.90 for three clients with extra clients at $6 each; Pro is $59.90 for 25 (then $2.40 each) and Master $89.90 for 50 (then $1.60 each). Pro and Master include custom-branded iOS and Android apps, which the others charge for or do not offer. Every plan has the same features and unlimited team members. The per-client top-up means the bill still moves with the roster.
PT Distinction pricingHevy Coach
From $25 a month for up to 10 clientsCoaches whose clients already log with the Hevy app.
The coach side of the Hevy workout tracker. One plan, priced in client tiers from 1 to 10 up to 501 to 1,000, and every client gets Hevy Pro free. Strong on the lifting log and the exercise library; lighter on business features like check-ins, bookings and nutrition. If your clients are lifters who already use Hevy, the handoff is the smoothest of the six.
Hevy Coach pricingHow to choose
- Count your clients a year from now, not today. Every tool except Onyx and My PT Hub Premium charges more as the roster grows. Price the plan at the number you are aiming for.
- List what you would pay extra for. Nutrition, payments, a branded app and video calls are add-ons on Trainerize and Everfit, included on My PT Hub, and not offered on Onyx or Hevy. Decide which of those you actually use before comparing base prices.
- Ask where the session gets logged. Most of these are built for the client to log at home. If you stand next to clients in a gym, the tool has to be fast enough to use between sets, on your phone, with one hand. That is what Onyx is for.
- Use the whole trial. Trainerize, Everfit, My PT Hub and Hevy give 30 days; TrueCoach and Onyx give 14. Move two real clients in and run their sessions before deciding.
