TrueCoach alternative

What TrueCoach charges for. Free.

TrueCoach charges $19-99/mo based on client count. FitPros.io gives you the same core coaching tools for $0. Unlimited clients, forever.

Why trainers switch

Common reasons coaches leave TrueCoach

Pricing scales with your client count

TrueCoach starts at $19/mo for 5 clients. 20 clients costs $49/mo. 50 clients hits $99/mo. Grow beyond that and you need custom pricing. FitPros.io is free at every size.

Client data gets locked in

Multiple TrueCoach users report no way to export workouts or training history. If a coach becomes inactive or stops paying, clients lose access to their own data. Your coaching work should belong to you.

Coach mobile app is limited

The TrueCoach coach app only handles messaging. All workout programming and editing has to be done on desktop or tablet. For coaches who want to work from their phone, that's a real limitation.

Now owned by Xplor Technologies

TrueCoach was acquired by TSG in 2020, which merged into Xplor Technologies. It's now part of a large enterprise company. Users report repeated price increases since the acquisition, with one reviewer noting "the only thing they updated is the price."

Where TrueCoach still wins

This isn't a "we're better at everything" page. TrueCoach has features FitPros.io doesn't, and you should know about them before switching.

TrueCoach has a larger exercise library with 3,500+ professionally filmed demos compared to FitPros.io's 1,000+. They offer nutrition tracking through MyFitnessPal integration and an AI meal plan generator. And they have wearable integrations with Apple Health, Garmin, WHOOP, OURA, and Fitbit. FitPros.io doesn't offer any of these today.

TrueCoach also has strong compliance tracking so you can see workout completion at a glance, and their progress visualization tools are genuinely well done.

If those features are essential to how you coach, TrueCoach might be the right tool for you.

But if you primarily need workout programming, client management, an exercise library, client apps, and a website, and you'd rather not pay $49-99/mo for it, FitPros.io does all of that for free.

Key differences

What sets FitPros.io apart

Truly unlimited clients

TrueCoach caps clients at each tier and requires custom pricing above 50. FitPros.io has no client limits on any plan.

Website builder included

TrueCoach doesn't offer a website builder. FitPros.io includes a professional website for your training business at no cost.

Your brand, not theirs

TrueCoach clients download the "TrueCoach" app. With FitPros.io, your clients get branded apps under your business identity.

Forms and habit tracking

TrueCoach doesn't include client intake forms or habit tracking. FitPros.io bundles both for free so you can manage the full client experience.

Built by a personal trainer

FitPros.io is built by Coach Sammy, a personal trainer who uses the platform every day. TrueCoach is now part of Xplor Technologies, a global enterprise company.
