Trainerize is a well-known personal training and online coaching app. Kinecta is built for a different job: turning gym members into paying PT clients. A public intake form, scored lead allocation, in-app booking and direct trainer payouts, with the gym in full view of the funnel.
Trainerize is a capable coaching app, and trainers use it well. The honest difference is where Kinecta starts: with a gym member who is not yet a client, and the steps that turn that member into booked, paid PT sessions.
A public intake form collects interested members from a link or QR code on the gym floor. No app and no account needed to enquire.
Scored lead allocation routes each enquiry to the right trainer based on fit and availability, so leads do not sit in an inbox going cold.
Clients book sessions in the app and pay through Stripe. The trainer is the merchant of record, so the money lands in their own account.
A gym dashboard shows lead pipeline, conversion, revenue, no-shows and a trainer leaderboard, so managers can read the funnel at a glance.
Most coaching apps assume the client already signed up. Kinecta works on the step before that: a member who walks past the PT desk and might say yes if it were easy. The intake form makes the first move simple.
Session money should not take a detour through gym accounts. With Kinecta each trainer onboards with Stripe and is the merchant of record, so payouts go straight to them. The gym still sees the numbers that matter.
The gym funnel is the headline, but the coaching side is real too. Kinecta also runs as an allied health platform, so the trainers and EPs in your gym have proper tools once a client is in.
It can be, for the right gym. Trainerize is a well-known personal training and online coaching app that many trainers use for programmes, tracking and client communication. Kinecta covers programmes, tracking and messaging too, but it is built around a different job: turning gym members into paying PT clients and handling trainer payments. If your goal is to sell more PT inside a gym, Kinecta is worth a look.
Kinecta starts before someone is a client. A public intake form captures interested members, scored lead allocation sends each enquiry to the right trainer, and in-app booking and payments run the sessions from there. A gym dashboard shows the lead pipeline, conversion, revenue, no-shows and a trainer leaderboard, so the gym sees the whole funnel alongside individual client accounts.
Each trainer onboards with Stripe and is the merchant of record, so session payments land directly in their own account. Kinecta keeps a 2.5% platform fee per session sale, taken automatically before the payout, and the rest is the trainer's. There are no gym SaaS tiers quoted here during the launch period.
No. Enquiry starts with a public intake form that any member can fill in from a link or a QR code, with no app or account needed. The client mobile app comes later, once they are matched with a trainer and booked in, so the first step is as easy as possible.
Kinecta is two products on one platform. Kinecta for Gyms is for gyms and personal trainers who want to convert members into PT clients and get paid cleanly. Kinecta for Practitioners is for allied health, with AI exercise and meal programmes you review and approve, daily check-ins and Jesse, the in-app AI coach. It is built around the gym funnel and trainer payments, not as a pure online-coaching app, so it suits gyms selling PT more than solo online coaches.
No. Kinecta does not do Medicare, DVA or private health fund billing, claiming or rebates, it has no NDIS-specific workflows, and it does not include telehealth or video calls. Session payments run through Stripe, where each trainer is the merchant of record. If those clinical billing features are essential for you, Kinecta is not the right fit, and we would rather say so up front.
