My PT Hub vs TrueCoach

What each one actually costs

The real monthly figure at four roster sizes with the add-ons each platform forces on you included, from the same engine the shortlist quiz uses. The cheaper of the two is marked on every row.

What is actually different

• My PT Hub does appointment booking, client food logging, group programmes, your own app in the stores and sellable packages, and TrueCoach does not. We checked both against their pricing pages.
• My PT Hub lists client check-ins, selling courses and progress photos where TrueCoach does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.
• TrueCoach lists group chat where My PT Hub does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.

I have used both

Condensed from my own reviews. Every line links to the second I said it, so you can check any of it. Prices in the table above are from this week; the videos are older and the figures in them are not.

My PT Hub

A feature-rich, clean platform that suits established coaches, but the flat-fee pricing is rough if you're just starting out.

• Offers a 30-day free trial with no credit card required, so you can test it properly before committing. 1:22
• Has its own extensive video library for exercises, so you don't need to spend time shooting your own. 7:03
• The user interface is very simple and clean, not confusing like some competitors. 7:57
• Flat pricing means you pay the full monthly rate even with just one client, unlike apps that scale with your roster. 3:27
• Not ideal for new coaches trying to save costs because you jump straight to the top-tier price after the trial. 3:32
• Does not integrate with Zapier, which limits automation options with other software. 13:36
• The interface felt a bit slow and took time to save, though that may have been due to screen recording. 7:32

TrueCoach

A robust system with good features for workout building, messaging and payments, though the dashboard can feel noisy and busy.

• Workout builder lets you create training programs for online clients. 1:25
• Access to over 1,200 exercise videos saves time if you haven't made your own. 1:32
• Real-time messaging keeps client conversations on one platform instead of scattered across WhatsApp, email and Messenger. 1:43
• The dashboard feed is noisy and confusing at first look. 4:22
• The programming view shows a lot of information on one page, making it feel technical and busy. 6:21
• No Zapier access, so you cannot connect it to other apps or automate workflows. 10:18
