Which one is for you

Pick My PT Hub if

  • Fits if you are a new trainer with one or two clients
  • Works for coaches who want a client app on iOS and Android

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you have more than a handful of clients, as Lite allows 1 and Starter 3
  • Pricey if you add extras, such as extra trainers at $10, Check-Ins AI at $12 and Zapier at $19 a month
  • Watch out: a custom-branded app has a one-time $95 fee, and white label is an extra below Ultimate
  • Watch out: some plans show first-3-months discounts, after which the regular monthly price applies
  • Skip it if you need the free plan to last, as it caps at 10 workouts and 10 nutrition plans

Pick TrueCoach if

  • Fits if you coach clients one-to-one and send them workouts to track
  • Works for trainers who want wearable and nutrition data next to the plan

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you have more than a few clients, as plans stop at 5, 20 and 50 active clients
  • Watch out: wearables, public profiles and the custom-branded app need Standard or Pro
  • Not for you if you book group classes or run a gym front desk, as it is built for one-to-one coaching
  • Watch out: the pricing page lists Zapier on Standard but says it is Pro only elsewhere
  • Pricey if you pay monthly, as Starter is $29.98 against $26.34 billed annually

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
