Trainerize is built for gyms and studios: workouts, habits, a long integration list. Online coaches usually leave because Advanced Nutrition and a branded app sit on top of seat pricing. CoachingPortal includes meals and a branded portal in the plan, with a flat unlimited bill. If you run a gym floor, need studio scheduling, or depend on Garmin-class wearables, Trainerize is still the better tool.
Free forever for 3 clients. No credit card.
Trainerize Pro custom branded app is $169 one-time: logo and colours on the Trainerize app. Studio is a store listing under your brand, with Apple’s $99/year developer fee extra. CoachingPortal includes a branded portal on every plan including free. Clients install the CoachingPortal apps (Matthew Gilbert / ClearInsite LLC).
Trainerize Advanced Nutrition is $20/month on Grow, Pro 5, and Pro 15, and $45/month on Pro 30 through Pro 200. It is included on Studio. That add-on is where the 2,400+ recipes live. CoachingPortal includes meal plans, 1M+ foods, 17,000+ recipes, barcode scanning, and grocery lists on Free, Grow, and Professional.
CoachingPortal: free forever for 3 clients, Grow $19.99/month for 10, Professional $49.99/month unlimited. Trainerize: free for 1 client; Grow $9/month for 2; Pro from $23/month billed annually at 5 seats. Trainerize’s FAQ lists Pro at $135/month at 50 clients, with annual billing saving 10%. Studio Plus is $248/month billed annually or $275 month-to-month per location. Stripe payments are a $10/month add-on on Grow and Pro.
Price the full stack, not the base seat. Branding is three products: Pro CBA theming, Studio store listing, and our portal. Trainerize wins gym floor, group training, Garmin, and ABC. Both have workout builders; we add RIR auto-periodization. We do not process payments. Free plans: Trainerize 1 client, CoachingPortal 3, Everfit 5.
There is no importer. Export screenshots, rebuild this month’s programs, bulk-invite clients to install CoachingPortal, overlap, then drop. See how to switch from Trainerize.
