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. Founding members stay free for life. When paid plans launch, everyone else picks Starter ($19 AUD/mo, up to 3 clients) or Pro ($29 AUD/mo, unlimited), or cancels 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?
Not from a CSV yet. Paste your TrueCoach client names and emails into PT Pro's Add several clients sheet, one per line, and everyone with an email gets a portal invite on the spot. A full roster takes one sitting. Workout history doesn't come across from TrueCoach — the only history import today is the Hevy CSV.
