## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Trainero you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $360 a year.

- You could make: Online courses, templates and habit tracking: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: People on the other end: coaches. No app builder makes those.
- You could not: Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
