Kahunas review
A broad coaching workspace for trainers who need content, communication, and payments.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Kahunas is an online coaching platform for personal trainers, fitness coaches, and coaching businesses. It combines structured workout programming, nutrition plans, client check-ins, habit tracking, progress monitoring, messaging, payment plans, content publishing, notifications, and calendar tools. Clients can access coaching through Kahunas apps on iOS and Android, while coaches can manage their programs through the web platform. It suits coaches who want a broad client-delivery system rather than separate tools for programming, communication, and payments.
The published plans show a paid-only structure with a 14-day free trial. Essentials costs $35 per month or $315 per year and includes the iOS and Android apps, custom check-in forms, custom habit tracking, unlimited workout plans, and messaging with voice notes. Growth costs $69 per month or $621 per year, adding up to 50 clients, lead-generation forms, automations, bulk client upload, Health Score A.I., and Zapier/Make availability. Ultimate costs $99 per month or $900 per year, adding unlimited clients, branded iOS and Android apps, the coach’s own app-store listings, group messaging, and included Zapier/Make integration.
Kahunas also connects with Stripe, PayPal, Zapier, and Make, giving payment and workflow tools a place in the broader coaching setup. Its content library supports audio, video, documents, and PDFs, while workout plans can include straight sets, supersets, circuits, exercise-library content, and custom uploads. That breadth makes it a strong fit for coaches delivering detailed, ongoing programs with frequent client communication. Coaches seeking only simple workout scheduling may find the wider feature set and paid entry point unnecessary. Those who want branded apps, automation, and larger client capacity should consider Growth or Ultimate rather than Essentials.
