The comparison

Perspire vs. My PT Hub

What is My PT Hub?

My PT Hub is personal training software with a long history and a strong following, particularly in the UK. It covers workout programming, nutrition plans, client bookings, payments and progress tracking, and its middle tier is unusual in the category for including unlimited clients on a flat monthly fee. The entry plan caps at three clients, there is no permanent free tier, and the features many coaches want most, like a custom-branded app or a full white-label listing, are priced as add-ons on top of the subscription.

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: unlimited clients only helps if you have clients

Unlimited clients on a flat fee is a genuinely good deal, and it is the reason many coaches pick My PT Hub over per-client platforms. But look closely at what it promises. It removes a ceiling. It does not fill the room. If you have eleven clients, an unlimited plan is still an unlimited plan, and the missing piece is not capacity, it is demand. Perspire is built for the missing piece. 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: your classes are filed under the styles you actually teach, like yoga workouts, HIIT sessions and strength training, so someone browsing that style lands on you.
  • 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.

Your niche has a home too. Trainers teach everything from dance classes and barre workouts to pilates classes, core training, cardio workouts and boxing workouts, each one visible to users already browsing that category.

Perspire: a public marketplace where new users find you in Explore, category pages and search.
My PT Hub: removes the cap on how many clients you can manage, but has no way to send you any.

Pricing

  • Coins, in plain numbers: Coins start at $10 for 100, about 10 cents each. A 50-Coin class is about $5 of user spend, roughly $4 of that yours.

Live streaming

Go live, then sell the replay

Live streaming is Perspire's most developed feature. 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.
My PT Hub: handles group bookings and class scheduling, but the live video itself happens somewhere else.

Revenue streams

Four ways to earn from one channel

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 structural difference: coaching software helps you deliver more efficiently to the people you already have. Perspire lets the same hour of work reach people you do not have yet, and keep earning after the hour is over.

Perspire: stack live seats, replay rentals, video sales, subscriptions and programs in one place.
My PT Hub: bills your own clients for coaching, with the content tied to their individual plans.

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.
My PT Hub: attaches content to a named client's plan, where it cannot be discovered or bought by anyone else.

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 a website build or a branding add-on:

  • 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: a free public channel page with your bio, credentials and full catalog, included with the account.
My PT Hub: puts your brand on the client app only if you pay for the branded or white-label add-on.

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.
Is there a limit on clients or followers?
No. There are no client tiers and no caps on your audience. Live sessions have seat limits per class, which you set your schedule around, and your on-demand catalog has no limit at all.
Are there add-ons I need to pay for?
No. Live streaming, video hosting, your public channel, subscriptions and programs are all part of the free account. There is no branding tier and no feature sitting behind a separate line item.
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.
Does Perspire do workout programming and nutrition plans?
No, and that is a real difference. Perspire is built for publishing and selling classes and content, not for writing individual programs or tracking a client's macros. If that is the core of your service, a coaching platform still has a job to do.
How is Perspire different from My PT Hub?
My PT Hub is coaching software for delivering plans to clients you already have, priced as a subscription with paid add-ons for branding. Perspire is a public marketplace where users discover you and buy your live classes, videos, subscriptions and programs, free to join with a flat 20% share of real sales.
