Looking for a TrueCoach alternative?
TrueCoach is a polished platform — and since January 2026 it costs $164.98/month at 50 clients plus 5% of every client payment processed through it. Here’s the honest comparison with Synrgetic, where the same roster is $39.99/month with everything included.
Published rates, checked July 2026. Always confirm against TrueCoach’s live pricing before you decide.
Pricing, side by side
Same roster, very different bill.
| Roster size | TrueCoach | Synrgetic | You keep (per year) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 client | $29.98/mo (Starter) | Free, forever | $360 |
| 5 clients | $29.98/mo | $8.99/mo | $252 |
| 20 clients | $69.98/mo | $24.99/mo | $540 |
| 50 clients | $164.98/mo | $39.99/mo | $1,500 |
And the 5% payment fee compounds it. Since January 2026, TrueCoach takes 5% of client payments processed through its platform. A coach collecting $3,000/month from clients pays another $150/month — $1,800/year — on top of the subscription.

The honest bit
When TrueCoach is still the right choice.
If you rely on TrueCoach’s specific integrations, want the reassurance of a large established company, or your business is built around premium-priced strength rosters where software cost is noise — staying put is a reasonable call. Synrgetic wins when you want the whole business — training, nutrition, bookings, payments tracking — in one app at a price that doesn’t scale against you.
Making the move
Switching is a two-week process, not a leap of faith. The free Switching Kit covers exporting your TrueCoach data (client CSV and workout history), announcing the change to clients, and running both platforms in parallel — and the founder will migrate your exercise guides and programs personally, free.
Or see it for yourself — your first client is free.
