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 cheap $19/mo Pro tier capped at 2 clients, unlimited-client plans from ~$59/mo, and ~$20/mo add-on groups. 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 flat $18.90/mo Pro (10 clients), $1.89 per client past 10 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 Pro plan caps you at just 2 clients, and unlimited-client plans run roughly $59-89/mo, with extra professionals (+$30-38/mo each) and some features stacking via ~$20/mo add-on groups — more platform than a solo trainer who just wants to write programs, check form and message clients usually needs.

|---|---|---|
| Free tier | Yes — $0 forever, 1 active client | No free tier — free trial only (no credit card, no commitment) |
| Entry paid price | $18.90/mo ($189/yr), up to 10 clients | From ~$19/mo (Pro, up to 2 clients; price scales by client bracket). Unlimited-client plans: Basic ~$59/mo, Essential ~$89/mo. Add-on groups ~$20/mo; +$30-38/mo per extra professional |
| Per-client fees | None for your first 10 clients, then $1.89/client | Mixed: Basic & Essential include unlimited clients, but the cheaper Pro tier is priced by client-count brackets (2 / 5 / 10 / 20 / unlimited), from ~$19/mo for up to 2 clients |
| Per-message fees | No | No per-message fee — but messaging only reaches clients you have paid a bracket for (2 at ~$19/mo) |
| 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 | In-app messaging included on all plans; real-time 1:1 chat not explicitly documented |
| Payments & payouts (Stripe) | Yes — $0 platform fee | Built-in billing/payment processing on the Pro tier or via a ~$20/mo Billing add-on; underlying processor (e.g. Stripe) and any platform fee not clearly documented |

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 $18.90/mo, hiignite's Pro covers up to 10 active clients (extras available) while Hexfit's $19/mo Pro caps you at 2 before the price climbs by client bracket. For a solo or growing online coach, you can test on real clients for free and scale without a step-change in price.
One flat price, no add-on stacking or per-pro fees
hiignite bundles its drag-and-drop program builder, form-check video, real-time chat and live progress tracking into one $18.90/mo Pro price, with $1.89 per client past 10 and no per-message fees. Hexfit layers cost: feature groups (nutrition, billing, appointments, custom app) can run ~$20/mo each on lower tiers, and each additional professional adds ~$30-38/mo. Predictable beats à-la-carte 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
- A lower entry price at $18.90/mo — covering 10 active clients where Hexfit's ~$19/mo Pro covers 2
- No feature add-on groups (~$20/mo each) and no ~$30–38/mo charge per extra professional
- Payments built in: Stripe payouts at a $0 platform fee, not a ~$20/mo Billing add-on
- Form-check video review and real-time 1:1 chat, documented and included
What you’ll actually pay
hiignite and Hexfit sit at almost the same entry price — $18.90/mo against ~$19/mo — but you get very different things for it. hiignite: Free ($0 forever, 1 active client, 2GB storage, 30s/720p video) and Pro at $18.90/mo or $189/yr (up to 10 active clients with extras available, 25GB, 120s/1080p video), with $1.89 per client past 10, no per-message fees, and a $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts. Hexfit has no free tier (trial only); its $19/mo Pro tier is feature-rich but caps at 2 clients and scales upward by client bracket (5 / 10 / 20 / unlimited), while its unlimited-client plans — Basic (~$59/mo) and Essential (~$89/mo, adds nutrition and group tracking) — are the route to no client cap. On top of that, à-la-carte feature groups (nutrition, billing, appointments, custom app) run about $20/mo each on lower tiers, and additional professionals add roughly $30-38/mo each. Net: hiignite wins on the free tier and on clients-per-dollar ($18.90 = 10 clients against Hexfit's ~$19 = 2), and the price stays flat instead of stepping up bracket by bracket.
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 flat $18.90/mo Pro, $1.89 per client past 10 and no per-message fees. For $18.90/mo, hiignite covers 10 active clients where Hexfit’s ~$19/mo Pro tier covers 2.
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 $18.90/mo ($189/yr), with $1.89 per client past 10, no per-message fees, and a $0 platform fee on Stripe payouts. Hexfit: no free tier (trial only); its Pro plan starts around $19/mo but caps at 2 clients and scales by client bracket, while unlimited-client plans run roughly $59/mo (Basic) to $89/mo (Essential), with feature add-on groups around $20/mo each and extra professionals billed separately. Nearly the same entry price — but hiignite’s $18.90/mo covers 10 active clients against Hexfit’s 2.
