About PT Software Guides
PT Software Guides helps personal trainers choose and set up the software that runs their business: coaching apps, payments, booking and the rest.
Most "best software" lists are written by the software companies themselves, or by people who have never trained a client. We do it differently. We sign up for each app, set up a real test client, and have every review checked by a qualified personal trainer before it's published.
Who we are

Mikey runs PT Software Guides day to day. He signs up for every app we review, sets up a test client, and documents each step with screenshots, so trainers can see exactly how the software works before they pay for it.

How we stay independent
- We test every app ourselves before we review it.
- No software company can pay for a better rating or a place on our lists.
- If we ever earn a commission from a link, we say so. See our affiliate disclosure.
