Looking for a Hexfit alternative?
If you coach 1:1 clients online, Hexfit's nutritionist/kinesiologist-grade toolset (assessments, scheduling, billing, multi-professional org accounts) can feel heavy. Its pricing is layered too: a ~$19/mo Starter tier capped at 5 active clients, then a separately named, higher-priced plan at every step up in client count — Solo from ~$50/mo (15 clients), Growth from ~$90/mo (40), Studio ~$250/mo (500) — with no unlimited-client coaching plan, plus add-ons (Nutrition +$10/mo, custom mobile app +$99/mo). hiignite is a focused coaching app for personal trainers — drag-and-drop programming, real-time form-check and chat, live progress tracking and Stripe payouts — with a genuinely free tier ($0 forever, 1 active client) and a published $9.99/mo Pro (10 clients), $6 per extra block of 10 clients, Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no client cap, and no per-message fees.
hiignite vs Hexfit
Hexfit is powerful but clinical and broad: there's no free tier (trial only), its cheapest ~$19/mo Starter plan caps you at 5 active clients, and every step up in client count means a differently named, higher-priced plan — Solo ~$50/mo (15), Growth ~$90/mo (40), Studio ~$250/mo (500), with no unlimited-client coaching plan at all — plus extra professionals (+$30-38/mo each) and add-ons on top (Nutrition +$10/mo, custom mobile app +$99/mo) — more platform than a solo trainer who just wants to write programs, check form and message clients usually needs.
| Feature | hiignite | Hexfit |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | Yes — $0 forever, 1 active client | No free tier — free trial only (no credit card, no commitment) |
| Entry paid price | $9.99/mo ($95.99/yr), up to 10 clients — launch price until 31 Dec 2026, regular | From ~$19/mo (Starter, up to 5 active clients). Client caps are attached to separately named plans: Solo ~$50/mo (15 clients), Growth ~$90/mo (40), Studio ~$250/mo (500), 1,000+ by quote — there is no unlimited-client coaching plan. Add-ons: Nutrition +$10/mo, custom mobile app +$99/mo (billed annually, Studio plan only), Hexfit Lab pay-per-use test credits; +$30-38/mo per extra professional |
| Per-client fees | None for your first 10 clients, then $6 per extra 10 — or Unlimited at $49.99/mo, no client cap | Client caps are attached to four separately named plans, several with internal cap steps that re-price: Starter 5 clients (~$19), Solo 15/30 (~$50/~$70), Growth 40/60/90/150 (~$90/~$120/~$150/~$210), Studio 500 (~$250) then quote. There is no unlimited step |
| Per-message fees | No | No per-message fee listed; the ~$19/mo Starter covers up to 5 active clients, and messaging is not listed among the Starter or Solo inclusions |
| Program builder + templates | Yes — drag-and-drop, reusable templates | Yes |
| Form-check video | Yes — dedicated review flow | Not stated — has an exercise demo-video library, but client form-check video review is not clearly documented |
| Real-time chat | Yes — real-time 1:1 | Messaging is not listed in any plan’s inclusions on the pricing page; real-time 1:1 chat not explicitly documented |
| Payments & payouts | Yes — automatic billing to your own Stripe, $0 platform fee | Billing is included from Solo ~$50/mo (absent from Starter ~$19/mo), not a paid add-on. Stripe is named as the processor and Hexfit’s FAQ states it takes no additional fees on transactions, while the Facturation feature tooltip lists a Stripe processing fee of +0.6% per transaction |
| Web + iOS + Android | Yes — web, iOS and Android | Yes |

Why coaches switch to hiignite
Start free, then get more clients per dollar
hiignite has a $0-forever free tier (1 active client) — Hexfit has no free tier, only a trial. And for $9.99/mo, hiignite's Pro covers up to 10 active clients (extras available, or Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no cap) while Hexfit's ~$19/mo Starter caps you at 5 and the next step up is Solo at ~$50/mo for 15. For a solo or growing online coach, you can test on real clients for free, then grow $6 per extra 10 clients instead of jumping from one named plan to the next.
One published price, no feature paywalls or per-pro fees
hiignite bundles its drag-and-drop program builder, form-check video, real-time chat and live progress tracking into one $9.99/mo Pro price, with $6 per extra block of 10 clients — or Unlimited at $49.99/mo, no client cap — and no per-message fees. Hexfit layers cost differently: only Nutrition (+$10/mo) and the custom mobile app (+$99/mo, billed annually, Studio plan only) are add-ons — billing (Facturation) and appointment management (Gestion des rendez-vous) are included from Solo ~$50/mo, not sold separately — so the cost sits in the plan ladder itself, and each additional professional adds ~$30-38/mo. Predictable beats climbing a plan ladder for a small team.
Built for fast 1:1 online coaching, not clinical paperwork
hiignite is mobile-first: a quick drag-and-drop block builder with reusable templates, real-time 1:1 chat, form-check video and live progress tracking across web, iOS and Android. Hexfit is broader and more clinical (assessments, healthcare workflows, scheduling, kinesiology/nutrition tooling) — surface area you pay for on every invoice whether or not you open it.
What you get with hiignite
- A free-forever plan for 1 active client — Hexfit is trial-only
- More clients per dollar: $9.99/mo covers 10 active clients where Hexfit's ~$19/mo Starter covers 5 — and 15 clients is $15.99/mo on hiignite against Hexfit's Solo at ~$50/mo
- Unlimited clients at a flat $49.99/mo, no cap — Hexfit has no unlimited-client coaching plan at all: Solo ~$50/mo stops at 15 clients, Growth ~$90/mo at 40 and Studio ~$250/mo at 500
- No paid add-ons — Hexfit charges +$10/mo for Nutrition and +$99/mo (billed annually, Studio plan only) for a custom mobile app — and no ~$30–38/mo charge per extra professional
- Payments built in: Stripe payouts at a $0 platform fee, against Hexfit's billing that starts at the ~$50/mo Solo plan and carries a +0.6% per-transaction processing fee
- Form-check video review and real-time 1:1 chat, documented and included
Hexfit pricing in 2026 — and what you’d pay on hiignite
| Roster size | hiignite | Hexfit |
|---|---|---|
| 1 active client | $0 — free forever | No free tier — trial only, then ~$19/mo |
| 5 clients | $9.99/mo | ~$19/mo — Starter, at its cap |
| 15 clients | $15.99/mo | ~$50/mo — Solo |
| 40 clients | $27.99/mo | ~$90/mo — Growth |
| 150 clients | $49.99/mo — Unlimited | ~$210/mo — Growth, at the 150 step |
| 500 clients | $49.99/mo — Unlimited | ~$250/mo — Studio |
hiignite's entry line is now the cheaper one — $9.99/mo against Hexfit's ~$19/mo — and it buys 10 clients where Hexfit's buys 5. hiignite: Free ($0 forever, 1 active client, 500 MB video storage, 120s uploads, 1080p playback) and Pro at $9.99/mo or $95.99/yr, about 20% off (up to 10 active clients with extras available, 1 GB storage), with $6 per extra block of 10 clients, no per-message fees, and a $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts; Unlimited at a flat $49.99/mo ($479.99/yr) drops the cap entirely. Hexfit has no free tier (trial only); its ~$19/mo Starter plan is feature-rich but covers up to 5 active clients, and every further step in client count is a separately named plan rather than a bracket on the same one — Solo from ~$50/mo (15 clients, ~$70/mo at 30), Growth from ~$90/mo (40 clients, stepping to ~$120/~$150/~$210 at 60 / 90 / 150) and Studio ~$250/mo (500 clients), with 1,000+ clients by quote. There is no unlimited-client coaching plan at any price: the ~$59/mo Basic plan is Hexfit's separate Dietitians tier (up to 30 clients), and no plan named Essential appears anywhere. The add-ons are narrower than that ladder suggests — Nutrition is +$10/mo, a custom mobile app is +$99/mo billed annually on the Studio plan only, and Hexfit Lab tests are pay-per-use credits — while billing (Facturation) and appointment management (Gestion des rendez-vous) are included from Solo ~$50/mo rather than sold separately; additional professionals add roughly $30-38/mo each. Net: hiignite wins on the free tier, on the entry price and on clients-per-dollar ($9.99 = 10 clients against Hexfit's ~$19 = 5, and 15 clients at $15.99 against Hexfit's ~$50/mo Solo), and growth never re-prices your whole plan: the $9.99 you start on covers your first 10 clients, each extra block of 10 adds $6 (25 clients $21.99, 50 clients $33.99, 70 clients $45.99), and past 70 clients Unlimited at $49.99 is always cheaper than adding blocks, so we switch you automatically — with no paid add-ons and no per-professional surcharge either way.
Questions, answered.
Yes — if you're a personal trainer focused on 1:1 online coaching rather than clinical or nutrition workflows. hiignite gives you a fast program builder, form-check video, real-time chat and Stripe payouts with a $0-forever free tier and a published $9.99/mo Pro, $6 per extra block of 10 clients and no per-message fees. For $9.99/mo, hiignite covers 10 active clients where Hexfit’s ~$19/mo Starter plan covers 5.
Up to 10 active clients, the drag-and-drop program builder with reusable templates, real-time 1:1 chat, form-check video review, progress tracking and Stripe payouts at a $0 platform fee. There are no feature add-on groups to buy on top and no per-professional surcharge.
hiignite: Free ($0 forever, 1 active client) or Pro at $9.99/mo ($95.99/yr), with $6 per extra block of 10 clients, no per-message fees, and a $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts — or Unlimited at $49.99/mo with no client cap. Hexfit: no free tier (trial only); its Starter plan starts around $19/mo but covers up to 5 active clients, and the client cap steps up through separately named plans — Solo from ~$50/mo (15 clients), Growth from ~$90/mo (40), Studio ~$250/mo (500), then quote — with no unlimited-client coaching plan at all. Nutrition is a +$10/mo add-on and a custom mobile app is +$99/mo billed annually on the Studio plan only, and extra professionals are billed separately. hiignite’s entry line is now the cheaper one as well — $9.99/mo covers 10 clients where Hexfit’s ~$19/mo buys 5 — and $49.99/mo Unlimited removes the cap that Hexfit’s coaching plans never drop.
