BoxBoard vs Gym141

BoxBoard helps coaches and gyms schedule workouts, track member progress, and support communities running daily functional workouts. Its journal brings personal records, scores, and past workouts together, while the AI Programming Scheduler creates a balanced week that users can edit. Coaches can paste a workout webpage link and review the extracted title, scoring, and details before logging or scheduling it. Membership plans can accept card and Apple Pay payments through Stripe, and members can manage cancellation or resumption. Each membership transaction incurs Stripe processing of about 2.9% + 30¢ plus a 2% BoxBoard fee. The service is available on iOS and the web. Basic Garage Gym is free for gyms with up to five members and includes scheduling one workout. RX Plan costs $25 a month and includes unlimited members, unlimited workout scheduling, AI-powered workouts and chat, member check-in, class support, and membership billing. BoxBoard also offers a browser-based TV leaderboard that refreshes automatically and spreadsheet or CSV imports with a preview.

Gym141 is self-hosted software for managing a gym or club’s members, fees, accounting, schedule and public website. Its member tools include search, filters and exports, plus fee plans with billing periods, reminders, pauses and history. The cash book organizes payment methods, categories and fixed costs, produces reports with forecasts, and automatically records fee payments. A public site can show training groups, a clickable weekly schedule and editorial pages maintained in the backend. Members can sign in to check personal details and fee status, RSVP to events and view progress charts.
