Frequently Asked Questions

COMMON QUESTIONS

Is TrueCoach worth the price?

TrueCoach is a well-built platform with an excellent workout delivery experience. However, its per-client pricing model means costs grow significantly as you take on more clients. At 20+ clients, PT Pro's $29/mo flat rate is substantially cheaper.

What is the best TrueCoach alternative?

For solo trainers looking for a TrueCoach alternative with flat pricing, PT Pro is the strongest option — unlimited clients, AUD-native pricing, built-in booking, revenue tracking, and card-on-file no-show fees. Other alternatives include My PT Hub, Everfit, and ABC Trainerize.

Does PT Pro have a workout builder like TrueCoach?

Yes — PT Pro includes a workout builder for creating and assigning workout plans to clients. TrueCoach has a more advanced workout builder with a larger video library, so if workout delivery is your primary focus, TrueCoach has an edge there. PT Pro's advantage is the booking, scheduling, and business management side.

Can I just sign up today?

Yes — sign up on the homepage and you get full Pro access free while PT Pro is in beta. No credit card required. When paid plans launch you keep your founding rate on Starter ($19 AUD/mo, up to 3 clients) or Pro ($29 AUD/mo, unlimited), or cancel anytime. Get beta access.

Does TrueCoach have online booking?

No. TrueCoach is built for online coaching and does not include a built-in client-facing booking link. PT Pro includes a shareable booking page with live availability, card-on-file no-show fees and calendar sync, all in the base plan.

Is TrueCoach cheaper than PT Pro?

No. TrueCoach charges per client — pricing scales linearly. PT Pro is $29 AUD/mo flat for unlimited clients on the Pro plan, so PT Pro is dramatically cheaper at 10+ clients.

Can I import my TrueCoach clients into PT Pro?

Yes. PT Pro accepts standard CSV exports from TrueCoach and most other trainer software. Most trainers move their full client list across in under 30 minutes.
