The one-paragraph verdict
Future is a polished async coaching app. A dedicated coach builds your weekly plan, you train alone with audio and video cues, and feedback arrives through messages and form-clip reviews after the fact. There are no live training sessions.
Bespoke Fit is the thing Future doesn't sell at any price: a coach actually with you while you train. Live HD video, every session, form corrected while the set is happening, load adjusted from what your coach sees, programming rewritten session by session. No other online personal training service is built this way, and it changes what coaching does: mistakes get fixed before they become habits, and skipping a workout means standing up a person who's already on the call waiting for you.
Future costs $199/mo. Bespoke Fit is $299/mo, with unlimited live sessions, which puts a coached session at $18.69 if you train four times a week. Whether live eyes are worth $100 more each month depends on how you train, so here's the honest breakdown.

Future

- Train whenever you want, no appointments
- Polished app with strong Apple Watch integration

What Future users say
Real reviews, quoted verbatim and linked, one from a fan and one from a critic.
"I hear from her almost every day. She knows my partner's name, my work sched, my pets, my hobbies, my dreams, my tells and pitfalls and, most importantly, the secret sauce that actually gets me moving."
"Your Future coach will be balancing conversations with 75+ people. You will receive general messages and will have to repeatedly ask to get answers. The lag time in communication makes it ineffective-feedback delivered four hours after a workout, if at all."
Which one fits you
Choose Future if
- You want the lowest price for a dedicated human coach: $199/mo is real money less than $299.
- You want to train whenever, with no appointment at all.
- You want tight Apple Watch integration today, not on a roadmap.
- Your technique is solid and your motivation is reliable; you mainly want programming and structure.
Choose Bespoke Fit if
- You want your form corrected while you lift, not reviewed in a clip tomorrow.
- You skip workouts nobody's watching; a booked live session gets you to show up.
- You're learning or relearning the main lifts and don't want faults built in.
- You want unlimited live sessions at one flat price, adapted on the spot when life or travel changes your setup.
We would rather you pick the right service than pick us for the wrong reasons.
The per-session math
Future
$199/mo
Self-guided workouts, coach messages included, zero live sessions.
Bespoke Fit
$299/mo
Train live 4x a week and each coached session costs $18.69.
Local personal trainer
$1,080/mo
$90/hr at 12 sessions. Four a week runs past $4,000.
The prices reflect what each company pays for. Future's $199 covers a coach's attention a few minutes a day across many clients. Our $299 covers a coach's undivided attention for every minute you train, which until now only existed at $90 an hour in person. That's the trade you're choosing between.
Switching from Future
Future bills monthly and lets you cancel in the app; new members can cancel within 30 days for a full refund per their current offer. There's no contract holding you.
Bring your training history: recent programs, lifts and numbers you're proud of, anything nagging like a cranky shoulder. Your first Bespoke Fit session starts with a live movement screen, so your coach builds on where Future left you rather than starting from zero.
With 14 days free, trying live coaching alongside your final Future month costs less than one in-person session would.
Common questions
Which is cheaper, Future or Bespoke Fit?
Future, on the sticker: $199/mo vs our $299/mo. Per coached session it flips. Future includes zero live sessions at any price; at Bespoke Fit, training live 4x a week works out to $18.69 per coached session, and your first 14 days are free.
Is Bespoke Fit better than Future?
For different people. If you train happily alone and want async programming, Future is solid and cheaper. If you want a coach watching and correcting you live, Future doesn't offer that at any price, and that's the whole reason Bespoke Fit exists.
Does Future offer any live video sessions?
No. As of September 2026 Future has no live coached workouts. Coaching happens through app-guided plans, messages, and form-clip reviews. Your only scheduled video call is the onboarding conversation.
Is Bespoke Fit worth $100 more per month?
If you train alone and stay consistent, maybe not. If form, injury caution, or follow-through are the reason you're shopping for a coach, a live human every session is the version of coaching that actually fixes those.
Can I switch from Future to Bespoke Fit easily?
Yes. Your first 14 days at Bespoke Fit are free, and your coach rebuilds your programming in your first week, using anything you want to carry over from your Future plans.
