Looking for a CoachRx alternative?
Switching from CoachRx usually comes down to two things: there is no free tier, and the price steps up in tiers as your active-client count grows. hiignite is a simpler, faster-to-launch 1:1 coaching app that is free to start (1 active client) and $9.99/mo Pro for 10 clients, with $6 per extra block of 10 — or Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no client cap — and no per-message fees.
hiignite vs CoachRx
CoachRx has no free tier (14-day trial only) and prices by client-count tiers, so your bill jumps from $29 to $79/mo the moment you cross 5 active clients. It is also a deep OPEX-methodology platform with nutrition, lifestyle/habit and periodization tooling that can feel heavy and slow to launch if you mainly want to program, chat, and review form-check videos.

|---|---|---|
| Free tier | Yes — $0 forever, 1 active client | No — 14-day trial only |
| Entry paid price | $9.99/mo ($95.99/yr), up to 10 clients — launch price until 31 Dec 2026, regular | $29/mo (1–5 clients), +~2% on Stripe |

Why coaches switch to hiignite
Free to start, no trial clock
CoachRx gives you 14 days then bills $29/mo minimum. hiignite has a $0-forever tier for 1 active client (500 MB storage, 120s uploads and 1080p playback on form videos — the same video spec as Pro) so you can run your first paying clients before spending anything. When you do go paid, Pro is $9.99/mo or $95.99/yr and covers 10 active clients — about a third of the $29 CoachRx charges for five.
No per-client tiers and no per-message fees
On CoachRx your monthly cost steps up with active-client count — $29 (1–5), $79 (6–50), $199 (51–150). hiignite charges a flat $9.99/mo Pro that includes 10 clients, then $6 per extra block of 10 — or Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no client cap at all — and no per-message fees, and Stripe payouts carry a $0 platform fee versus the ~2% CoachRx reportedly adds on top of Stripe.
Faster to launch, modern 1:1 mobile UX
CoachRx is a deep OPEX programming + lifestyle platform that takes setup to use well. hiignite focuses on the core 1:1 loop — drag-and-drop block builder with reusable templates, real-time chat, form-check video review and live progress tracking — so you can onboard a client in minutes on web, iOS and Android.
What you get with hiignite
- A free-forever plan for 1 active client — CoachRx is a 14-day trial only
- A published $9.99/mo Pro ($95.99/yr) that covers 10 clients, then $6 per extra block of 10 — on CoachRx $29/mo stops at five, and client six moves you straight to $79/mo
- No client-count tiers — your price does not change the month you sign client six
- Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no client cap — less than the $79 CoachRx charges for its 6–50 tier
- A $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts, versus a reported ~2% on top of processing
- Program builder + templates, real-time chat and form-check video review, included
CoachRx pricing in 2026 — and what you’d pay on hiignite
| Roster size | hiignite | CoachRx |
|---|---|---|
| 1 active client | $0 — free forever | 14-day trial, then $29/mo |
| 5 clients | $9.99/mo | $29/mo ($25/mo billed annually) — top of the 1–5 tier |
| 6 clients | $9.99/mo | $79/mo — the tier steps up at client six |
| 15 clients | $15.99/mo | $79/mo |
| 50 clients | $33.99/mo | $79/mo |
| Top of the range | $49.99/mo — Unlimited | $199/mo |
A working 1:1 coach on CoachRx pays at least $29/mo (or $25/mo billed annually) on the 1–5 client tier, and that jumps to $79/mo the moment a sixth active client signs up; if you take payments through the platform, CoachRx reportedly adds about 2% on top of standard Stripe processing rates (this surcharge is cited by third-party reviews rather than CoachRx's own pages). There is no free tier — only a 14-day trial. hiignite is free forever for 1 active client and $9.99/mo (or $95.99/yr, ~20% off) on Pro for up to 10, with $6 per extra block of 10 clients, no per-message fees, and a $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts; past 70 clients, Unlimited at a flat $49.99/mo with no cap is cheaper than adding blocks, and we switch you automatically. Pro costs about a third of CoachRx’s $29 entry tier and buys twice the roster: 10 active clients against five, and no step up at client six. So a coach with a dozen clients pays $15.99/mo on hiignite versus $79/mo on CoachRx, and a coach at 50 clients pays $33.99/mo against $79/mo.
