Peaked vs ABC Trainerize
Trainerize is the platform most coaches start on. It works — until you want to charge clients, build meal plans, do video, or look like a real brand. Then the add-on math starts.
Peaked includes all of that on every plan.

Where ABC Trainerize still has the edge
We don't pretend to be everything. If these are non-negotiable for your business, Trainerize is the better fit today:
Wearable integrations
Trainerize integrates natively with Apple Health, Garmin, Fitbit, MyFitnessPal, and Withings. Peaked uses Nutritionix for the food database; full wearable integrations are on the roadmap.
AI Workout Builder
Trainerize ships an AI-assisted workout generator. Peaked focuses on coach-built programming with a volume calculator instead.
Existing audience and Trainerize.me listing
Trainerize has a public coach directory that can generate inbound. Peaked is built for coaches who drive their own leads.
Habit gamification
Streaks, badges, and challenge leaderboards are native to Trainerize. Peaked treats habits through check-ins and content rather than gamification.
Coach-branded white-label app
Trainerize ships full app-store white-label (Studio tier). Peaked's native app is live under the Peaked brand; full coach-branded white-label is on the roadmap.
If those five things are critical, Trainerize is the right call. If they're not — Peaked is built for the rest of running the business.
Why coaches switch from ABC Trainerize to Peaked
- 1
The add-on math gets exhausting
Once you've paid for nutrition, payments, video, and business features separately, you're paying $200/mo for what Peaked sells at $135. And every time Peaked ships a new feature, you don't get an upsell — you get an update.
- 2
The CRM lives inside the platform, not in a Zapier zap
Trainerize pushes you to wire your CRM through Zapier. Peaked builds CRM, lead capture, lead status, and waitlist tracking into the same platform as your clients.
- 3
Contracts and onboarding aren't an afterthought
Generate, send, sign, and store contracts inside Peaked. Build custom onboarding workflows. Trigger welcome emails. None of this requires a second tool.
- 4
Check-ins are structured, not just messages
Daily forms, weekly forms, photo uploads, training video uploads, and a workload filter so you can batch your check-in time. On Trainerize, check-ins are mostly messaging.
- 5
The team coaching dashboard is included
On Peaked, multi-coach setups are standard. On Trainerize, that's Studio tier territory ($248+/mo per location).
