The comparison

Perspire vs. Everfit

What is Everfit?

Everfit is online coaching software built around one-to-one workout programming. It gives you a drag-and-drop workout builder, a large library of exercise demonstration videos, and support for supersets, intervals, AMRAP, EMOM and %1RM auto-progression, plus habit and progress tracking. Clients you already have download the Everfit app to follow the plans you write for them.

What is Perspire?

An online fitness platform that combines live streaming and on-demand video in one place. Think of it as a creator marketplace built for fitness. You set up your own channel, go live or upload workouts, and price your content in Coins. New users discover you through Explore, category pages and search, and every Coin they spend supports you. Perspire is free to join and takes a flat 20%, so you keep 80% of what you earn.

Discovery

Get discovered: a built-in audience, not just client management

This is the biggest difference. Everfit is very good at what it does, but it is back-office software: it starts working only once someone has already agreed to be your client. There is no browse page, no public profile that strangers land on, no way for a person looking for a strength coach to find your programming. Every client has to come from your own marketing. Perspire works the other way. It is a public, browsable marketplace where new users find you. Here is where you show up:

  • Explore feed: your live sessions and videos appear where users browse for workouts.
  • Categories: you're grouped under the styles you teach, like yoga workouts, HIIT sessions and strength training, putting you in front of people already browsing that style.
  • Popular Instructors and trending: active trainers get featured to fresh audiences.
  • In-app search: users searching inside Perspire can find your channel and your classes.

Niche styles get found just as easily. Dance classes, barre workouts, pilates classes, core training, cardio workouts and boxing workouts each get their own category page, right in front of the users already looking for that style.

Perspire: a public marketplace where new users find you in Explore, category pages and search.
Everfit: has no discovery layer, so every client has to arrive through your own effort.

Live streaming

Go live, then sell the replay

Live streaming is Perspire's most developed feature, and it is the thing a 1:1 coaching app does not attempt. You run the whole thing from your trainer Dashboard, and one class can earn money more than once:

  • Schedule from your Dashboard: set date, time and length, pick a fitness level, tag equipment.
  • Go live early: start up to 15 minutes before the scheduled time, choose your mic and camera at launch.
  • Real-time chat: see your attendees and chat with them during the session.
  • Two prices, one class: a Live Training Price for booking a seat, and a Recording Price for renting the replay.
  • The replay keeps selling: every recording saves automatically, and renters get 72 hours of access.
Perspire: live streaming is built in, with real-time chat and an auto-saved replay you can sell.
Everfit: has no native live class feature, so group sessions run on a separate video tool with separate payments.

Revenue streams

Four ways to earn from one channel

Everfit has one revenue shape: you coach a client. Perspire lets you stack several income streams from the same work, and you set every price yourself:

  • Live seat bookings: real-time paid classes.
  • Recording rentals: the 72-hour replay of each live session.
  • On-demand videos: standalone workouts you upload and price one by one.
  • Channel subscriptions: recurring access to all your content, for steady income.

You can also sell Fitness Programs: structured multi-day plans and challenges bundled into one package. Together, this gives you a full creator funnel. Free content attracts followers, paid one-offs convert them, and subscriptions keep them coming back. The practical difference is leverage. On a per-client platform, doubling your income means doubling your hours and paying for more client slots. On Perspire, the same live class can be sold to fifty people at once and keep selling as a replay afterwards.

Perspire: stack live seats, replay rentals, video sales, subscriptions and programs in one place.
Everfit: monetizes one client relationship at a time, and charges more as you add relationships

On-demand video

Build a video library that sells while you sleep

  • Upload and price: mark each pre-recorded workout free or paid in Coins.
  • Organize into Collections: group videos into series or playlists.
  • Control every detail: set title, description, thumbnail, fitness level and equipment tags.
  • Earn passively: your library keeps selling in the background while you focus on new content.
Perspire: sells individual videos to the public, and you set your own price on each one.
Everfit: uses video inside a client's program, not as a catalog anyone can buy from.

Your brand

Your channel is your storefront

On Perspire, your account is a public channel that doubles as your marketing page. It gives an independent trainer a credible, branded home without building a website:

  • Your public profile: set a username, write an About Me bio, add a profile picture and social links.
  • Build trust: add your certifications or licenses so users can see your background.
  • Get matched to the right users: set your specialties, so different coaches reach different audiences.
  • One home for everything: your videos, live sessions and subscription offers all live on one page.
  • Share in one click: copy a direct link to any session and post it anywhere.
Perspire: gives you a free public channel page with your bio, credentials and full catalog.
Everfit: puts your branding inside an app only your existing clients ever open.

FAQ

What you might be wondering

Is Perspire free for trainers?
Yes. Perspire is free to join with no monthly fee and no credit card. Perspire takes a flat 20% of the Coins spent on your content, and you keep 80%. You only ever pay when you earn.
Does Perspire charge by the client the way Everfit does?
No. There are no client tiers and no per-client slider, so your costs do not rise as your audience grows. Live sessions have seat limits per class, which you can plan your schedule around.
Are there add-ons I have to pay for on top?
No. Live streaming, video hosting, your channel page and subscriptions all come with the account. The 20% share is the whole arrangement, with standard Stripe processing when the money moves to your bank.
Does Perspire have live streaming?
Yes. Live streaming is Perspire's most developed feature. You schedule sessions, go live with your mic and camera, chat with attendees in real time, and Perspire saves the recording so you can sell it as a replay.
Can I sell recordings of my live classes?
Yes. Every live session sets two prices, one to book a live seat and one to rent the recording. Perspire saves the replay automatically, and renters get 72 hours of access, so one class earns money twice.
How do trainers get paid on Perspire?
Your earnings build up in your account, convert to USD, and pay out to your connected bank through Stripe. Connecting Stripe is a one-time setup step.
How is Perspire different from Everfit?
Everfit is 1:1 coaching software: you build and track programs for clients you already have, and you pay a per-client subscription plus add-ons for extras like nutrition, automation and payments. Perspire is a public content marketplace: you publish live classes and videos that any user can discover and buy, it is free to join, and you keep 80% of every sale.
Can I use both?
Yes, and some coaches do. Everfit runs the private 1:1 roster, and Perspire is where the same coach sells group classes, replays and programs to a wider audience. Because Perspire costs nothing to maintain, it works well as a second channel rather than a replacement.
