Looking for a 1Fit alternative?
If you're leaving 1Fit, it's usually because the £40+/mo entry price and the £4-per-extra-client charges stack up as your roster grows — with no permanent free plan to start on. hiignite is a coaching app with a genuinely free tier and a flat $9.99/mo Pro plan that includes 10 clients, $6 per extra block of 10 clients and no per-message fees.

Why coaches switch to hiignite
Ten clients included, then $6 per block of 10
1Fit charges £4 per extra client per month once you pass your plan cap, so costs climb with every signup. hiignite includes 10 clients and charges $6 per extra block of 10 after that — about 60 cents a client against 1Fit's £4, and nothing at all until client 11. Past 70 clients we move you to Unlimited at $49.99/mo automatically, because it's always cheaper than adding blocks.
A genuinely free plan, then a published $9.99/mo
1Fit only offers a 7-day trial — after that you pay £40/mo minimum. hiignite is $0 forever for 1 active client (500 MB storage, 120s uploads, 1080p playback), and Pro is $9.99/mo or $95.99/yr — about 20% off — with no surprise add-ons to unlock payments.
Keep more of every payout, with a fast modern 1:1 experience
hiignite bills your clients automatically through your own Stripe account with a $0 platform fee and no per-message fees, plus a drag-and-drop block builder, real-time 1:1 chat, and form-check video on web, iOS and Android. 1Fit gates integrated payments behind its Growth tier and doesn't publish its platform fee or processor.

Yes, if your priority is predictable cost and a clean 1:1 coaching experience. hiignite has a free-forever tier, a flat $9.99/mo Pro plan with 10 clients included, $6 per extra block of 10 clients and no per-message fees, and a $0 Stripe platform fee. The program builder, real-time chat and form-check video review are on every plan, on web, iOS and Android — the free tier gets the same full 120-second, 1080p video Pro does.

Free covers 1 active client. No per-message fees at any point.
