Personal Trainer Software Comparison 2026: Nutrium, Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach, MFIT

If you coach clients on training, nutrition, or both, you’ve probably opened five browser tabs trying to answer one question: which software actually covers what you do? Most reviews compare these platforms one at a time, which makes it easy to miss the pattern that shows up the moment you line all of them up: every major name in this category was built around training, nutrition, or a single national market — never both training and nutrition, for any coach, from day one.

This roundup puts five of the most-searched platforms side by side — Nutrium, Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach, and MFIT Personal — on what each is built for, what it costs, and where the gap actually shows up in day-to-day coaching. Then it lays out where ExoTrack fits, for anyone who’s tired of paying for two products to run one client relationship.

What actually separates these platforms

Before the names, the criteria. These are the four questions worth asking about any coaching platform, and the ones this comparison is built around:

• Does it cover training, nutrition, or both? Most platforms in this category do one well and treat the other as an afterthought — a tracker bolted onto a program builder, or vice versa.
• What does it actually cost to run a full-service coaching business on it? The sticker price on a pricing page is rarely the real number once nutrition, automation, or client-count tiers get added in.
• Does the price grow with your client roster, or stay flat? Per-client pricing punishes exactly the growth a coaching business is trying to achieve.
• Is there one client history, or two? When training and nutrition live in separate tools, adherence data never fully lines up — a missed workout and a skipped meal show up on two different dashboards, if they show up at all.

With those fixed, here’s how the five stack up.

Nutrium — strong nutrition software, no training at all

Nutrium is one of the most established names in nutrition-coaching software: a real food and meal-plan builder, macro tracking, and consultation management built for dietitians and nutritionists. What it doesn’t have, at any price, is training. There’s no workout builder, no exercise library, no way to program a client’s gym sessions inside the platform.

Its Unlimited Clients plan runs $25/mo billed annually ($299/yr) or $39/mo billed monthly, with no client-count cap. Price verified August 16, 2026 — see Nutrium’s official pricing for current rates. For a nutrition-only practice, that’s a fair, competitive price. For anyone who also programs training — which is increasingly the norm, not the exception, among nutrition professionals — it’s the first of two subscriptions, not the whole bill.

Trainerize (ABC Trainerize) — the training-software default, nutrition costs extra

Trainerize, now officially ABC Trainerize, is close to shorthand for the category: solid workout programming, an exercise library, and a client app coaches and clients already know. Pricing scales by client count — free for 1 client, $9/mo for 2, from $23/mo for 5, climbing tier by tier up to $248/mo per location for a studio, plus a $169 one-time fee for a white-labeled app.

Nutrition is where the gap opens up. Grow and Pro plans track macros and meals logged by the client, but building and assigning an actual meal plan requires Advanced Nutrition Coaching — a separate add-on priced $20/mo on Grow and lower Pro tiers, rising to $45/mo on higher Pro tiers. Price verified August 16, 2026 — see Trainerize’s official pricing for current rates. Run a solo coaching business on Pro plus the nutrition add-on and the bill is $43/mo before a single upsell — for one professional, split across two line items.

Everfit — a modern workout builder with nutrition as a paid add-on

Everfit is a newer entrant covering similar ground to Trainerize: an AI-assisted workout builder, habit coaching, a branded client app, and pricing by client count. Starter is free for up to 5 clients; Pro opens at $19/mo for 5 clients on monthly billing ($16/mo annual), scaling to $290/mo (or $242/mo annual) at 300 clients; Studio starts at $105/mo (50 clients).

Pro includes a basic food journal, but the full meal-plan-and-recipe-book builder is a separate add-on at $39/mo ($33/mo annual) — on top of whichever tier a coach is already paying for. Price verified August 16, 2026 — see Everfit’s official pricing for current rates. The pattern is the same one Trainerize follows: real nutrition programming exists, but it’s priced and shipped as an extra, not built into the base plan.

TrueCoach — training-focused, nutrition handled elsewhere entirely

TrueCoach leans into what it does well: a clean program builder, video feedback on client-submitted lift form, and a client app with almost no learning curve. It has no native meal-plan builder at all — nutrition and habit compliance are monitored through TrueCoach’s own tracker and third-party syncs like MyFitnessPal, not built and assigned the way a workout program is. TrueCoach’s own blog argues trainers should offer nutrition coaching and manage it alongside training in one dashboard; the demand is acknowledged, the native tooling to build a plan isn’t there.

Pricing runs by client count: Starter is $26.34/mo billed annually (or $29.98/mo billed monthly) for up to 5 clients, Standard reaches $57.99/mo annually for up to 20, and Pro is $136.99/mo annually for up to 50. Price verified August 16, 2026 — see TrueCoach’s official pricing for current rates. There’s no free tier, only a 14-day trial.

MFIT Personal — training software built for the Brazilian market

MFIT Personal is a different shape of platform from the other four: a Brazil-focused app for personal trainers covering anamnesis, physical assessment, workout prescription, and student payments, priced in Brazilian reais. It reports serving over 200,000 personal trainers and around 5 million students. Like Trainerize, Everfit, and TrueCoach, it’s training-only — there’s no meal-plan or nutrition-coaching capability in the product.

Its unlimited-students plan is R$39.90/mo, or R$10.90/mo for a plan capped at 3 students, with longer commitment discounts available quarterly, semi-annually, and annually. Price verified August 16, 2026 — see MFIT Personal’s official subscription page for current rates. For a Brazil-based trainer running training-only coaching, it’s an affordable, purpose-built option. For anyone in that same market who also delivers nutrition plans, the second tool — and the second login for the client — is still a separate purchase.

The pattern across all five

Line them up and the shape repeats: Nutrium does nutrition and nothing else. Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach, and MFIT do training well and treat nutrition as either missing entirely or a paid add-on stacked on top of a client-count-based price. None of them were built around the idea that most coaches today deliver both to the same client — so none of them make that combination cheap, fast, or native.

That’s not a knock on any of the five. Each is a genuinely strong tool for what it was built to do. It’s a product-history problem: these platforms started as one thing — a meal-plan tool, a workout builder — and the other discipline got added later, if it got added at all.

Where ExoTrack fits

ExoTrack was built around the opposite assumption: that training and nutrition belong in the same subscription, for the same client, from day one — not as two products under one login, and not as a base plan plus an add-on.

The Professional plan is $9.99/mo, flat, with unlimited client management included — no per-client tiers to climb, no separate charge to unlock meal planning. Workout Plans and Nutrition Plans share the same Client Assessments and the same client profile, so adherence for workouts, meals, and hydration shows up in one view instead of split across a training dashboard and a nutrition app. The mobile app clients use is included from day one, and plans sync to it automatically the moment a coach makes a change.

That’s the practical difference against every name in this roundup: Nutrium covers nutrition only; Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach, and MFIT cover training well and treat nutrition as missing or extra. ExoTrack treats both as the default, in one product, under one price.

Which one should you actually pick

If your coaching is nutrition-only, Nutrium remains a strong, established choice. If it’s training-only and you’re set on staying that way, Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach, or MFIT (if you’re coaching in Brazil) will each cover it competently, and their head start in the market means more third-party integrations today.

But if you deliver — or want to deliver — training and nutrition to the same clients, which is where most coaching businesses are heading, paying for two platforms (or a base plan plus a nutrition add-on) adds cost and complexity a combined tool doesn’t need. Start free with ExoTrack and see whether two subscriptions were ever the better option for your business.
