eFitHub
eFitHub is aimed at coaches who want programming, records, conversations and client administration in one paid service. Its three monthly tiers mainly differ in active-client, video-hour, Milo-credit and community limits. Since the client app is included, there is no second client charge, while the lack of named watch support makes it a poor fit for someone seeking a watch-based training app. Coaches considering Milo should allow time to review its drafts before sending or applying them.
- Workout plans support weeks, sessions, blocks, videos, notes and timers.
- Progress tools include measurements, session history and custom metrics.
- Chats, calls, media and technique clips support coach-client contact.
Hevy
Hevy suits lifters seeking an organized log, routine planning, progress records, and community accountability on phones, browsers, and supported watches. Its free tier works for a small routine collection, though regular trainers can reach the limits. Pro becomes relevant for unlimited routines, extended graph history, measurement tracking, or Hevy Trainer. Review the default public-profile choice if you prefer less sharing, and remember that API use is reserved for Pro accounts.
- Records sets, rest, notes, routines, and user-created exercises
- Apple Watch and Wear OS support includes offline workout recording
- Provides records, estimated one-rep max, volume, and exercise history
Round by round
Published plan prices
eFitHub starts at €29 a month for its Start plan, with Plus at €69 and Pro at €79. Each tier is billed monthly and sets active-client, video-hour, Milo-credit and community limits. Hevy Pro costs $2.99 a month, $23.99 a year or $74.99 one time. Hevy also has a free plan. The currencies differ, but Hevy publishes much lower entry prices and a lifetime option, so it wins on listed price.
Hevy takes this round
Free access and limits
eFitHub has no free plan. Its paid Start tier allows up to 10 active clients; when a coach reaches the limit, existing clients continue working but new clients cannot be added until an upgrade. Hevy's free plan allows four routines, seven custom exercises and three months of graph history, with limited measurements. Pro removes those caps and adds Hevy Trainer. Because Hevy can be used without payment, it wins this round.

Coaching and workout tools
eFitHub covers the coach-client workflow: workouts by weeks, sessions and blocks; videos, notes and timers; client profiles, calendars, questionnaires, check-ins, messaging, calls, payments and progress metrics. Milo can draft follow-up work for review. Hevy focuses on lifting: routines, warmup, drop and failure sets, rest timers, exercise notes, charts, personal records, estimated one-rep max, body measures and community activity. Hevy is deeper for an individual lifting log, but eFitHub covers more coaching operations, so it wins overall feature breadth.

Named service connections
The eFitHub product pages describe connected coach and client apps but name no third-party integrations. Hevy lists a Strava integration that can share gym workouts with Strava followers. Hevy also offers a public REST API for workouts, routines, exercise templates, folders, history, body measurements and user information, although API access is restricted to Pro users. With a named external connection and an API, Hevy offers more documented ways to connect other services.

Supported platforms
eFitHub lists Android, iOS and web access, with separate coach and client apps. Hevy lists Android, iOS, web and an API. Hevy also supports Apple Watch and Wear OS workout tracking, routine syncing and offline workouts. The API and watch support add options for Hevy, while eFitHub's coach-client app structure serves its own workflow. Both provide mobile and browser access, so the basic platform choice does not separate them.
Privacy and data controls
eFitHub says users retain ownership of uploaded content while granting permission to host, process, convert and transmit it to run, protect and improve the service. Its terms place account responsibility on users except where eFitHub is at fault. Hevy accounts are public by default, but users can make profiles private and limit social features. Hevy's stated rights include access, correction, deletion, portability and objection, and Google Play reports encryption in transit and deletion requests. The facts show different controls, not a clear overall winner.
Developer access
eFitHub's pages outline connected coach and client apps without naming outside services. Hevy publishes OpenAPI 3.0 REST documentation covering workouts, routines, exercise templates, folders, exercise history, body measurements and user information. The API is currently restricted to Hevy Pro users, and its documentation warns that the structure may change or be abandoned. Hevy therefore wins on documented developer access, despite those limits.

AI assistance
eFitHub includes optional Milo AI. Milo uses eFitHub client context to prepare drafts and follow-up work; the coach can review or edit proposals before approving changes or sending client-facing material. The terms warn that AI output may be wrong and must be reviewed.

The short of it
Choose eFitHub for a paid coaching operation that needs client records, communication, scheduling, payments, structured programming and optional Milo assistance. Choose Hevy for personal weight training, a free starting tier, lifting analytics, social features and Apple Watch or Wear OS logging. Hevy also offers Strava sharing and a documented API, while eFitHub keeps its focus on the coach-client workspace. The products overlap on workout planning and progress tracking, but their intended users and pricing models point to different choices.
