For gyms and personal training studios

Gym management software that starts with the booking

For gyms and training studios where personal training sessions, assessments and inductions still get booked over the counter and chased over the phone. Sessions go on a page, payment lands before the session, and each member has a record the whole floor team can read.

Free plan, no card and no call. One flat monthly price when you upgrade, zero commission on payments, cancel yourself in the app.

Who this is for

Written for the way gyms actually run

Gyms selling personal training sessions alongside floor access
Small training studios with two to five coaches and no front desk
Owners tired of PT payments arriving as cash and UPI screenshots
Gyms where a trainer leaving means the client list leaves too

What operate1 replaces

A booking tool, a payment link, a client spreadsheet and a reminders routine, folded into one account at one flat monthly price.

Zero commission on every plan. You connect your own payment account and the money settles to you; we charge the subscription and nothing else.

Three things that go wrong every week

PT sessions are sold in packs of ten, tracked in a notebook, and paid in cash the trainer collects. At month end nobody can say who owes what.

Sell the pack as a prepaid bundle on your page, paid in one online payment into the gym's own account. The purchase, the sessions and the notes all sit on the member's record, so the notebook retires.

The 6 am slot is the one everyone wants, and a no-show at 6 am cannot be refilled. The trainer came in for nothing.

Sessions are paid at booking, and your cancellation window and fee are published on the page. An empty 6 am slot stops being free for the person who caused it.

When a trainer quits, his clients' programmes, assessments and history go with him, because the gym never had them in the first place.

Assessments, session notes and payment history live on records the gym's account owns. A new trainer opens the record and continues the programme instead of starting from scratch.

How it works

How a booking runs here

Sessions and packs go on your page
A PT session, a fitness assessment, an induction, a ten-pack at your bundle price. Each with its own duration and price at your own link, or your own domain on Pro.
Members book real availability
Each trainer has their own bookable hours, and the page offers only slots that are actually free, with buffers between back-to-back sessions.
Payment lands before the session
UPI, card or net banking through the gym's own Razorpay account, international cards through Stripe. Zero operate1 commission on every plan.
The record fills itself in
The session, the payment and the trainer's notes land on the member's record. Email reminders at 24 hours and 2 hours cut the forgot-my-session no-shows.

What you get on day one

Per-trainer session calendars

Each trainer has their own services, hours and booking link. Members book the trainer, not just the gym.

Session packs, prepaid

Sell ten sessions at your pack price, collected up front in one payment. Sessions and notes are counted on the record.

PT money into the gym's account

UPI, cards and net banking at booking. No cash floating between trainers and the counter.

One record per member

Assessments, injury flags, session notes and every payment against the person, owned by the gym, readable by any trainer.

A no-show policy that applies itself

Publish a cancellation window and fee percentage once. The page enforces it, so the trainer never has to.

Every trainer, one flat price

Add the whole coaching team without per-seat charges. Role-based access keeps the owner's view and the trainer's view separate.

Not built yet, named plainly

Things gym owners ask us for that are not built yet. Better you read it here than find out in week two.

Memberships and recurring billing. Packages today are prepaid bundles, not auto-renewing monthly memberships.
Group class capacity and headcounts. Each bookable slot is one booking today, so group classes with a member limit and a waitlist are not built yet.
Automatic session deduction from packs. A pack is a prepaid bundle; sessions are counted on the record rather than by a credit ledger.
WhatsApp reminders and biometric or access-control integration. Reminders are email today; both are roadmap items.

Questions gyms ask us

Can this handle my group classes?

Partly, and we will be straight about it. Each bookable slot is one booking today, so it fits 1:1 sessions and small-batch slots you list as services. Capacity-managed group classes with headcounts and waitlists are not built yet.

How do session packs work?

A pack is a prepaid bundle: the member pays your pack price once, up front, into your own account. Sessions are then booked normally and tracked on the member's record. There is no credit ledger or automatic deduction yet.

Do you take a cut of PT payments?

No. operate1 takes zero commission on every plan. Payments go through your own Razorpay or Stripe account, and the only per-transaction cost is the gateway's own processing fee.

Can trainers see each other's clients?

Only if you let them. Access is role-based, so you decide what a trainer sees versus what the owner sees, and the records themselves always belong to the gym's account.
