Key Challenges We Handle

Platform fees add up

Trainerize and Mindbody charge $50–200/mo. A custom app pays for itself within months at 20+ clients.

Client adherence

PDF workout plans get ignored. In-app delivery with reminders and streaks drives retention.

No-shows

Deposits and SMS reminders reduce no-shows by 30–40%. Build payment capture at booking from v1.
