01 / CORECOACH ALTERNATIVE

Coaching software that keeps up with the research.

CoreCoach is seventeen years of one group’s coaching, codified into templates. A real strength. Ours is the latest exercise science: programs built against the 2026 ACSM Position Stand, with the citation in the plan. A$49/month for 25 clients, in Australian dollars. Evidence that updates as the science does.

  • Most PT software is glorified data storage with a subscription attached. Vinay Koka

  • Built for PTs first and foremost, not just an app that works for your clients. Ad Coutts

  • I was recommended another app that everyone uses… then I found REPley. It is so useable. Shayna Fernando

02/ON YOUR SIDE

You master your craft. REPley masters the business.

A business coach, not another PT app. You coach, REPley does the paperwork, and anything that reaches a client waits for your approval. One price, every feature, no commission on what your clients pay you.

01 / EASY TO LEARN

Ask it the way you would ask a person:

  • “Who is about to quit?”
  • “What did I earn this month?”
  • “Build Sarah a 12-week block.”

No manual. No setup marathon.

02 / A COACH FOR THE BUSINESS SIDE

  • Reads your numbers like an accountant
  • Drafts the invoice, the reminder, the plan
  • Flags what needs attention before you ask

Built by a CPA who watched sole traders get squeezed by fees.

03 / ONE PRICE, EVERY FEATURE

  • No add-ons to decode
  • No commission on client payments
  • No per-client charges

Plans differ by one thing: how many clients you hold.

03.9/FROM TRAINERS WHO SWITCHED

Modern software for the next generation of trainers.

Built with the mobile and AI tools this decade actually has, and an interface that stays out of your way. Here is what coaches said after they made the switch.

04/WHEN THEY WIN

When CoreCoach is the better choice.

Every comparison page on the internet tries to pretend their product wins every case. It does not. Here is when we think you should pick them over us.

  • 01You want programming that reflects how one experienced group actually coaches. Their FAQ claims 17+ years and over 500,000 PT sessions behind the templates, and if you trained with AIF or Clean Health they will match the syllabus you were taught.
  • 02You want longer than 14 days to decide. Their trial is 30. Ours is shorter by design, because setup should take an afternoon rather than a month, but if you want four weeks, that is theirs.
  • 03You coach purely online and never book a session, so scheduling, class capacity and calendar sync are things you would not use.
  • 04You coach outside Australia and New Zealand, where GST invoicing, ABNs and APSS screening do nothing for you, and a large part of what we build is exactly those.
05/DIFFERENTIATOR

One thing we care about more than feature parity.

We never want to see you go. Life changes, and we hope it's that, not that the product let you down. Either way, cancellation isn't a fight. The PT software industry has a reputation for punishing it. We do the opposite, on the record.

06/QUESTIONS

Questions people ask before switching from CoreCoach.

Why does an assistant matter more than an AI feature?

Because a feature is a button you have to find, and an assistant is a question you ask. Most platforms ship AI inside a particular screen, so it helps with the thing that screen already did. REPley sits across the product with 62 registered tools, so the same plain-English question reaches programming, scheduling, billing or retention depending on what you asked, and nothing it drafts reaches a client until you approve it. The practical difference is not what the software can do. It is how long before you can do it, because you are asking rather than learning where everything lives.

Do you take a cut of what my clients pay me?

No. Client payments run through Stripe Connect into your own Stripe account, so your clients pay you directly and you pay Stripe the normal processing fee. We take nothing on top and there is no per-client charge as your roster grows. CoreCoach also uses Stripe and documents no platform commission either way. The thing worth checking with any platform is not whether it takes a percentage today, it is whether your bill moves when your business grows. Ours moves only when you cross a client-count tier.

What happens if I outgrow my plan, or want to leave?

Moving up a tier changes one thing: how many clients you can hold. Every feature is on every plan, so you never unlock anything by paying more and there is nothing to renegotiate. Leaving is one click, with no support ticket and no retention call, and your data comes with you: clients, programs and invoices export to CSV. We would rather you left cleanly than stayed because leaving was made difficult.

Whose programming should I trust, theirs or yours?

They are answering different questions and both answers are reasonable. CoreCoach codifies how one experienced group coaches: their FAQ claims 17+ years and more than 500,000 PT sessions behind the templates, delivered through Clean Health Group. That is real, and a template written by someone who has coached thousands of people is not nothing. BuildStability starts from the published literature instead. Every resistance-training program is generated against the 2026 ACSM Position Stand (Currier et al., Med Sci Sports Exerc 58(4):851-872), the citation travels with the plan so you can check it, and when the position stand is updated the programming follows. Experience ages well until the evidence moves. Pick the one that matches how you coach.

How does CoreCoach pricing compare to BuildStability?

CoreCoach prices in US dollars and steps the price with a client-count band. The band marked "Most Popular" is Growth, for 11 to 30 clients, at US$89 per month. At 1 USD = 1.39 AUD that is roughly A$124 per month, before your card issuer adds a foreign transaction fee. BuildStability Starter holds 25 clients for A$49 per month, billed in Australian dollars. Both platforms include every feature on every plan, so the comparison is genuinely like for like on scope: the difference is the number and the currency. Sources: corecoach.app/founding-launch/ and buildstability.com/pricing, both read 21 September 2026.

Can I move my clients and programs across from CoreCoach?

Yes, and you do not have to do it all at once. Most trainers bring their active clients over first and leave finished programs behind. We import a client list from CSV, and our onboarding walks you through recreating your programs, or you can have the AI builder generate a periodised plan from the same brief and edit it. If you want a hand, we will do the first few with you. Bring your own Stripe account with you: payments run through Stripe Connect into your account, so your clients are paying you directly from day one.
