Kilo Is Good at
But Doesn't Replace Gym Management
Kilo (~$82-175/mo) is a training app. It's great for coaching and programming, but lacks member billing, scheduling, CRM, and waivers. You still need separate tools. AllStrong covers what Kilo does well plus the 10 other things required to run a gym.
Why Gym Owners Need More
Kilo Is Only Part of the Picture
Kilo excels at what it was designed for: coaching, programming, and athlete performance tracking. But running a gym requires much more. You need to bill members, manage class schedules, track leads, handle waivers, and understand your business finances. Kilo covers none of that, which is why most gym owners using Kilo also pay for separate platforms.
Multiple Tools Required
Kilo + billing software (PushPress, Zen Planner) + CRM + scheduling = 3-4 separate tools, 3-4 different logins, and hours spent syncing data between platforms. AllStrong is one tool that handles everything.
No Billing or Payments
Kilo has zero payment processing. You're forced to use a separate billing platform for memberships, class packs, and member charges. Then manually manage who has paid for what. AllStrong includes Stripe billing natively.
No Class Scheduling
Kilo doesn't schedule classes or manage bookings. You still need a separate scheduling tool. AllStrong covers class scheduling, member bookings, waitlists, and QR check-in.
No Lead Management
When a prospect walks in, there's nowhere in Kilo to track them. You need a separate CRM. AllStrong includes a built-in lead pipeline with activity tracking and follow-up workflows.
No Digital Waivers
Kilo doesn't handle waivers or compliance. You're collecting paper forms or using a separate service. AllStrong includes digital waivers with PDF storage and audit trails.
No Member Wellness Context
Kilo shows you WOD performance. AllStrong shows you (with consent) whether a member's sleep was poor, stress is elevated, or nutrition isn't supporting training — context that helps you coach better.

Pricing Comparison
Kilo + Billing vs. AllStrong
Most gym owners using Kilo also pay for PushPress or Zen Planner for billing. Here's what that costs vs. AllStrong.
Kilo
Training App Only
+ separate billing software required
What you still need:
- Kilo ($82-175/mo)
- PushPress or Zen Planner ($160-300/mo)
- Class scheduling (separate)
- CRM for leads (separate)
- Digital waivers (separate)

100-member gym: $299/mo

The Real Cost of Kilo + Billing
If you're paying Kilo ($100/mo) + PushPress ($200/mo) to get training + billing, you're spending $300+/mo and still missing class scheduling, CRM, waivers, and churn prediction. AllStrong at $299/mo (for a 100-member gym) covers all of that in one tool.
Why Gym Owners Choose AllStrong Over Kilo
Kilo is an excellent training platform if you ONLY care about coaching and athlete development. But most gym owners care about running a profitable business, which requires managing members, billing, leads, and retention. AllStrong covers Kilo's core strength (training) while adding the business operations Kilo doesn't handle.
Can You Keep Using Kilo?
You could theoretically use AllStrong for gym management and keep Kilo for training. But that means duplicating effort — logging workouts in two places, managing two separate athlete data sets, and dealing with sync issues. Most owners find it simpler to use AllStrong for everything and drop Kilo entirely.
