Last Tested Apr 21, 2026
Best free plan in the category: 5 full clients, no credit card, no time limit. Full Android support. Habit tracking built in. Real cost at 50 clients with nutrition is $138/mo -- not the $19 headline.
Last tested: April 2026

Quick Answer: Everfit is a modern PT software platform at $19/mo with strong group training features and a clean mobile-first experience. Best for coaches working with both 1-on-1 and group clients. Good video demonstration tools and solid Android support — the main edge over TrueCoach at the same price.

Everfit has the most generous free plan in the category (5 full clients, no credit card), the best workout builder for feature depth, and the best customer support response times of any platform tested. The $19/mo Pro starting price looks exceptional — and it is, up to about 20 clients. Once you start adding nutrition ($33/mo extra) and advanced automation, you’re looking at $134+/mo for a solo coach with 50 clients. That’s still good value for what you get, but it’s not the $19 the homepage advertises.

What Everfit actually is

Everfit is built for online coaches who want to deliver workouts, track habits, and communicate with clients from a single platform — without a 4-hour setup weekend or a Trainerize-level learning curve.

The platform’s strengths are immediate: the workout builder is the most feature-rich in the category (percentage-of-1RM auto-progression, AMRAP/EMOM/circuit blocks, supersets, tabata — all supported natively), the client-facing experience is clean and mobile-first, and the habit tracking layer goes beyond workouts to cover sleep, water, steps, and custom health behaviors.

What it doesn’t do is hide its complexity behind simplicity. Everfit has depth — it just takes time to find all of it. Most coaches can get a client receiving workouts within an hour of signing up. Getting the full automation and nutrition stack configured properly takes longer.



Pricing — the real numbers

Everfit’s pricing structure is tiered, and the add-ons change the real cost significantly:

Plan Price Clients
Starter Free 5
Pro From $19/mo Scales with client count (5 = $19, more as you add)
Studio From $105/mo 50+ clients
Enterprise Custom 500+

Add-ons (billed separately):

  • Nutrition / meal plan creator: $33/mo
  • Advanced automation beyond Pro tier: included in Studio

The real cost at 50 clients with nutrition + automation: approximately $105 + $33 = $138/mo.

That’s still competitive. TrueCoach at 50 clients is $107/mo (no nutrition, no branded app). PT Distinction at 50 clients is $89.90/mo (nutrition and branded app included). Everfit at $138/mo for 50 clients with nutrition is solidly mid-market.

But it’s not $19. Most coaches reading Everfit’s marketing will see $19 and budget around that. The honest version is: start free, grow to $19-25/mo for a small practice, budget $100-140/mo for a full 50-client operation with nutrition.

What the free plan actually includes: 5 clients with full access to workout building, scheduling, habit tracking, messaging, and progress monitoring. The only thing consistently missing is nutrition and automation. For a brand-new coach, this is genuinely the best starting point in the category.



What Everfit does well

The workout builder is the most feature-complete in the category. Percentage-of-1RM auto-progression means you set a target relative intensity and the app calculates the actual weight based on the client’s current 1RM — no manual math. Supersets, circuits, AMRAP blocks, EMOM blocks, tabata timers — all native. Drag-and-drop scheduling works cleanly. TrueCoach is faster for experienced users, but Everfit has more features.

The habit tracking integration is genuinely useful. Beyond workouts, you can assign and track daily habits — water intake, sleep hours, step counts, custom goals. For coaches who offer lifestyle change work alongside training, this is built in rather than bolted on. Trainerize’s habit features exist but feel secondary. On Everfit, habits feel like a first-class part of the coaching product.

The client app experience is the best in the mid-market. Clean design, fast load times, push notifications that actually work, easy progress photo upload, direct messaging in the app. Clients unfamiliar with fitness apps find it easy to navigate. This matters because client adoption of your app affects your coaching outcomes, and Everfit’s client-side experience is more polished than TrueCoach or MyPTHub at a comparable price.

The free plan is real. Five full clients, all core features, no credit card required. You can run a small coaching practice on Everfit for free indefinitely. No other platform in the category matches this.

Customer support is the best in the category. Same-day responses on every plan, willingness to jump on calls for setup help, proactive communication when issues occur. This is consistently cited in G2 and Capterra reviews. When you’re running a coaching business, software support quality is underrated until something breaks.

Android client app exists. Unlike TrueCoach, Everfit clients can use Android or iOS. For coaches outside the US or with demographically diverse client bases, this matters enormously.



What frustrates users

The add-on pricing model can feel like bait-and-switch. The $19 headline is real but limited. Coaches who sign up expecting a full-featured platform at $19 run into the nutrition and automation add-ons quickly. Everfit is transparent about this if you read the pricing page carefully, but the headline number does mislead first impressions.

No branded client app. Clients download “Everfit” with Everfit’s branding, not yours. For coaches who have invested in building a personal brand, this is a daily reminder that you’re building on someone else’s platform. PT Distinction solves this from $59.90/mo.

Nutrition features, even with the add-on, are limited. The meal plan creator generates basic plans — 500+ recipes, no allergy-aware customization, no white-label nutrition outputs. For coaches who run structured nutrition programs, this is a foundation but not a full solution.

No wearable integration. Apple Watch, Garmin, Whoop — none of them sync to Everfit. For coaches working with athletes who track HRV, recovery, or sleep through a wearable, this is a gap. FitBudd supports wearable integrations.

Broadcast messaging is locked behind upgrades. Sending a message to all clients at once requires a higher tier. For coaches who run group challenges or want to send weekly motivation to their full client list, this hits faster than expected.


Faz’s take: Everfit is the tool I’d recommend to any new online coach in 2026, no competition. The free plan is real, the workout builder is excellent, and you can get a client receiving professional-looking programs within an hour of signing up. The add-on cost is something to go in eyes-open about — if you’re going to need nutrition and automation, budget $130-140/mo at scale, not $19. That’s still fair. But don’t let the headline price set expectations that the full product doesn’t match. At what it actually costs with the right add-ons, Everfit is excellent value. At $19, it’s excellent for a small practice.

Saru’s take: The comparison that matters at scale: Everfit at 50 clients with nutrition ($138/mo) vs PT Distinction Pro with 50 clients, nutrition, and branded app ($89.90/mo). PT Distinction is cheaper and includes more. The reason to still choose Everfit: lower learning curve, better client-side UX, and the best free plan to start on. PT Distinction takes a weekend to configure properly. Everfit takes an hour. For coaches who value speed-to-client over long-term cost optimization, that tradeoff is real. For coaches who have the time to invest in setup and want the best value at scale, PT Distinction wins on the numbers.


Who should use Everfit

It’s the right call if:

  • You’re starting out and want the best free plan to build your first 5 clients
  • You coach lifestyle, wellness, or habit-focused clients alongside workout programming
  • You want Android client compatibility for your client base
  • You value fast onboarding and a short learning curve over maximum customization
  • You’re at 5-30 clients and nutrition add-ons haven’t kicked in at full cost yet

It’s the wrong call if:

  • You need a branded client app — Everfit doesn’t offer one
  • You’re scaling to 50+ clients and plan to add nutrition and automation — PT Distinction is cheaper at that scale
  • You need wearable integrations for athlete clients
  • You do professional-grade nutrition programming — the nutrition tools aren’t deep enough

FAQ

Is Everfit’s free plan actually free?

Yes. Five full clients with core features — workout delivery, scheduling, habit tracking, messaging, progress photos — at no cost, no credit card required. The only meaningful limits are nutrition tools and advanced automation.

How much does Everfit actually cost at scale?

At 50 clients with the nutrition add-on and Studio plan: approximately $105 + $33 = $138/mo. Without nutrition, Studio plan alone handles 50 clients at $105/mo. Without add-ons and at fewer clients, the Pro plan scales up from $19/mo.

Does Everfit have a branded app?

No. Clients use the Everfit app with Everfit’s branding. If a custom branded app matters for your business, PT Distinction (Pro plan, $59.90/mo) includes this at a lower price than any other platform offering branded apps.

Is Everfit good for nutrition coaching?

It has nutrition features, but they’re basic. The meal plan creator generates plans from 500+ recipes and works for general healthy eating guidance. For coaches who run detailed macro-based nutrition programs or need allergy-aware plan building, a dedicated nutrition tool is a better fit.

Does Everfit have an Android client app?

Yes — this is one of Everfit’s key advantages over TrueCoach. Android and iOS clients get equivalent app experiences.



Final verdict

Everfit is the best entry point in the personal trainer software category and one of the top three platforms at scale. The free plan is the most generous available, the workout builder has the best feature depth, and the client experience is cleaner than anything at a comparable price.

The add-on pricing model is the thing to go in knowing about. Budget the real cost at your target client count, not the headline. At $138/mo for 50 clients with nutrition, Everfit is competitive but not the cheapest — PT Distinction delivers more at $89.90/mo for coaches willing to invest in setup. For coaches who prioritize speed-to-client over cost optimization, Everfit is the right call.
