Evobody vs Hevy Coach.

What Hevy Coach does well, in its own words

• The Hevy app your clients use. Clients log their training in the Hevy app, and "can access progress charts, their best performances, and a complete training history".
• Apple Watch and Wear OS. "The app is fully compatible with Apple Watch and Wear OS devices", so a client can log the session on the watch and leave the phone in the locker room.
• A detailed program builder. Drag and drop, with "sets, rep range, weight target, rest periods, and RPE", and workouts you can duplicate or import from other programs.
• A video exercise library of "400+ Exercises", plus "an unlimited number of custom exercises with step-by-step instructions".
• A coach app for in-person sessions: "Log client sessions set-by-set on your phone."
• Client chat with files, to "send and receive videos and images to instruct clients and monitor technique".
• Tracking: body weight, body fat, measurements, progress photos, and statistics on every exercise.
• An invite link with a contact form, so new people can ask to train with you.

For a coach who programs strength training and wants the lowest price at 11 to 25 clients, that is a strong offer, and it is honest to say so.

What its pages do not list

Hevy Coach's pricing and features pages, read 8 October 2026, list no nutrition or food tracking, no check-in forms, no habit tracking, no AI and no client payments. A coach who sets calorie targets, reviews food logs or runs a weekly check-in would do that somewhere else, beside Hevy Coach.

On Evobody all of that is in the same app, on every plan, the free one included: a food database of about 2.6 million foods, where a client can search, scan a barcode or photograph the plate, meal plans, the targets you set, a weekly check-in and habits.

A community: public, or your own

Hevy's community is big and public. In Hevy Coach's words, the Hevy app "is home to more than 17 million athletes worldwide", your clients "gain instant access to this active and engaged community as soon as they register", and "Hevy users can follow others, build a following, and show support by commenting on and liking other people's workouts". For a client who enjoys training in public, that is real motivation.

Evobody's community is the other shape: private to your own clients, on every plan. No other coach can see your client list or reach your clients, and every post starts from an achievement, because there is no compose button anywhere in the client app. Clients climb five ranks, Start through to Whole, earned week by week against their own plan, and every week the clients who showed up go on the Pace Setters board.

Evo SI, in every client's app

SI stands for Super Intelligence, previously known as Artificial Intelligence.

• Photograph the menu at the restaurant they are sitting in and ask what they can eat.
• Photograph the inside of the fridge and see what is in there they can have.
• Ask how training went this month and hear which lifts went up.
• Log a meal by describing it, then correct it by saying "that was a bun, not a roll."

It reads their plan, their targets, their phase and their numbers, and it is told that client's own allergy and diet rules with every question. It proposes, the client confirms, and it never overrules their coach. Every client's first ten questions are free; after that it is $3 a month for each client you switch it on for.

It works for you too, trained on your philosophy and methods, set up in the app. And it is optional: switched off for a client, it is hidden from their app.

Check-ins, with your own screen recorder

You reply to a check-in by writing, or by recording a video over the client's own dashboard with your camera in the corner, talking them through their numbers. That recorder is built in, so the Loom or ScreenPal subscription many coaches pay for is one more thing you stop paying for.

Outdoor training, tracked live

A run or a ride is tracked live inside Evobody on a GPS map, with pace and distance as it happens, in the iPhone app (in beta).

Support for your clients, day or night

When a client has a question about the app, they ask from inside it, any hour, and Evobody answers. You are not the help desk for software you did not build, and anything about their training or food still comes to you. Hevy Coach's own pages publish no support hours for clients.

Who each one suits

Hevy Coach suits a coach who programs strength training, wants clients logging on a watch, likes the idea of a big public training community, and has between 11 and 25 clients, where it is the cheaper of the two.

Evobody suits a coach who also coaches food, habits and a weekly check-in, wants a community that belongs to their own clients, and wants an AI in each client's app that answers from the plan the coach wrote. It is free for the first five clients and one price for any number after that.

No add-ons, now or ever. Other coaching apps charge extra for add-ons. We never will: every coaching feature is on every plan, everything we build next comes in too, and you never pay for our progress.

Moving from Hevy Coach to Evobody

You get dedicated support for the move. Your client list comes across in one go, and Evobody's team helps you bring over your programs, plans and documents rather than rebuild them from nothing. Because Evobody is free for your first five clients, you can run a few on both before you move the rest. The full detail is in the switching guide.
