Trainaq launches: a personal trainer app built for Indian coaches

Trainaq, a personal trainer app built by an Indian company, is now live on Google Play. It comes as two apps: Trainaq Coach, where a trainer runs clients, programs, diet plans, check-ins and payments, and Trainaq, a free app the trainer's clients use to follow along. Plans in India start at ₹799 a month + GST, and every plan opens with a 7-day free trial that needs no card.

Disclosure: NutraCore is affiliated with Trainaq.

What is Trainaq, and what has launched?

Trainaq is a coaching platform for people who train others for a living. The launch puts two Android apps on Google Play: Trainaq Coach for the trainer and the free Trainaq app for clients. Coaches also get a web dashboard at app.trainaq.com for desk work such as importing a client list from a spreadsheet.

Two apps instead of one is a deliberate choice. Your clients see only their own side: today's plan, their food log, their check-in and their chat with you. You see the whole business at once, with every client, every plan and every payment, and no client screens in the way.

If your coaching currently lives across WhatsApp chats, PDF diet charts and a notebook of who owes what, Trainaq is meant to replace that patchwork with one place for the whole job.

Who is this personal trainer app for?

This personal trainer app suits anyone who coaches paying clients week after week: trainers on a gym floor, online coaches, nutritionists, freelancers who work across several gyms, and teams with an owner and trainers. It isn't a solo workout app, because the client side only works when a coach invites the client from Trainaq Coach.

Personal trainers at a gym

For in-person work, the parts you will use most are 1:1 session booking, memberships, and cash or part payments tracked as dues. Every payment gets an invoice or receipt, and in India that is a GST invoice, so the question of who has paid what stops living in your head.

Online coaches

Online coaching runs on programs and accountability. You can build a program once and assign it to many clients, and each client gets their own copy, so changing one person's plan never touches anyone else's. Weekly check-ins land in a review queue, and chat with photos keeps every client conversation inside the coaching app.

Nutritionists and diet-led coaches

Diet plans carry calorie and macro targets and use Indian and global foods in household measures. That helps with clients who have never owned a kitchen scale. Clients can log a meal from a photo, and they check what the AI read before it is saved. If many of your clients are vegetarian, our guide to building muscle on a vegetarian Indian diet is useful background for their plans.

Coaching teams and studios

The Pro plan adds a team with owner and trainer roles, with clients assigned to each trainer, plus group classes with booking and waitlists. Studio goes further with custom roles and permissions and support for multiple branches.

What is included on every Trainaq plan?

Every plan, Starter included, carries the core of the product: the coach app and web dashboard, the free client app, the workout and program builder, the exercise library, diet plans, AI food photo logging, chat, check-ins, habits, memberships, payments and invoices. The plans differ mainly in how many active clients they cover and what Pro and Studio add.

Here is how that core breaks down by the job it does:

Training. The library holds 600+ exercises with 1,600+ HD 3D demo videos made by Trainaq, in male and female versions. If you teach a movement it doesn't cover, add your own exercise with a video or a YouTube link.

Nutrition. Plans have calorie and macro targets and an Indian food list in household measures, and clients log meals by photo, search or barcode scan.

Accountability. Weekly check-ins arrive in a review queue, a weekly AI client digest sums up the week, and progress photos, measurements and habits such as water, steps and sleep (with streaks) sit on each client's record.

Onboarding and contact. Intake forms collect a new client's details, chat keeps the conversation in one thread, and automations and reminders handle the nudges you would otherwise send by hand.

Money. Memberships, cash and part payments with dues tracking, and an invoice or receipt for every payment. Clients in India can pay online through Razorpay by UPI, card or netbanking, and clients abroad of an Indian business can pay by international card.

Reports. Basic reports come with every plan. Pro adds coach reports, and Studio adds advanced analytics.

What do Pro and Studio add, and what does it cost?

Pro adds the AI diet and workout builder, group classes, Health Connect sync, a team and leads; Studio adds custom roles, multiple branches, advanced analytics and an AI website builder. As of 28 Oct 2026 in India, Starter is ₹799, Pro ₹1,499 and Studio ₹2,499 a month + GST. Check trainaq.com/in/pricing for current prices.

Yearly plans work out cheaper per month than paying monthly. Prices can change, so look at the current plans on the Trainaq India pricing page before you choose.

A simple way to pick: count the clients you actively coach today, add the ones you expect over the next few months, and choose the plan that covers that number. Move up to Pro when you want the AI builder, group classes or a second trainer, whichever comes first.

What do your clients get in the free Trainaq app?

Clients install the free Trainaq app on Android. They open it to see today's workout and their calories and macros left, train with a 3D demo for each exercise, log food from a photo, send their weekly check-in and chat with you. Bookings, membership details, payment links and invoices sit in the same app.

For you, the useful part is that a client never pays anything to work with you through the app, and their food logs, check-ins and progress show up on your side without you chasing screenshots.

How do you start using Trainaq Coach?

Install Trainaq Coach from Google Play and start the 7-day free trial, which needs no card. Then import your existing clients from an Excel or CSV file on the web dashboard and send each one an invite link. They install the free client app, join through the link, and you can assign their first plan.

Step by step:

1. Download Trainaq Coach from Google Play and start your free trial.
2. On the web dashboard at app.trainaq.com, open Settings → Import Data and upload your client list as an Excel or CSV file.
3. Send each client their invite link by WhatsApp, text or email.
4. Clients install the free Trainaq client app and join through your link.
5. Assign a program and a diet plan, then set up memberships and payments.

If you'd rather go slowly, invite three or four clients first and bring the rest over once the weekly routine feels settled. A trial week with real clients tells you far more than a week of clicking through menus.
