HQ.training vs Wodify
For boxes that coach more than the WOD
Wodify is a box owner’s system, founder-funded since 2012, with whiteboards, leaderboards and partner programming. Its list prices run from $199 to $499 a month, plus onboarding and add-ons. HQ is $59 a month and brings each member’s own training, from runs to rides, onto the gym’s account.

The short version
HQ is the better pick if
- You want one published price and no onboarding fee: $59 a month, against $199 to $499 at Wodify’s list prices.
- Your members train outside class, and you want their runs, rides, HRV and sleep from Garmin, Apple Health, Oura or WHOOP in one place.
- Your coaches write individual plans as well as the class workout.
- You want at-risk scoring on the plan you start with.
- You want the whiteboard, PRs and the TV board in the plan rather than as an add-on.
Wodify is the better pick if
- You want comments and likes on members’ scores, and lift and movement history in the member app.
- You buy programming from CompTrain, HWPO, PRVN or HYROX365 through its marketplace.
- You want two-way SMS, lead nurture automations and a website built for you.
- You run several locations, or want live class heart rate with Myzone belts.
- You need an API, Zapier or QuickBooks.

What sets them apart
The price you see
Wodify’s list prices are $199, $299 and $499 a month, with $100 off for demos booked by 31 October 2026. Onboarding is a separate fee it doesn’t publish, and Perform, the website and unlimited automations are add-ons below Ultimate; the branded app is an add-on on every tier.
The class, or the member
Both run the class whiteboard: the workout, scores, PRs and a leaderboard on the TV. Wodify is built around it. HQ is built around each member’s training as well, including what they do outside class, from a plan their coach writes to the run their watch recorded.
Wearables
Wodify shows live heart rate in class through Myzone belts you buy. HQ reads what members already wear, Garmin, Apple Health, Oura, WHOOP, Fitbit and Withings, and turns it into fitness, fatigue and form.
Where Wodify is ahead
A programming marketplace and partner programming, comments and likes on results, two-way SMS, automations, several locations and an API.
