Gymdesk vs WodGuru
The two most transparent pricing tables in the gym category, built on different scaling logic. Gymdesk publishes five flat tiers by member count ($75–$200/mo up to 400 members) and started in martial arts, so it ships belt/rank tracking nothing else here offers. WodGuru bills $1 per active member with a hard $249/mo cap and a real free tier up to 10 members — the cheapest predictable bill in this catalog.

The verdict
Pick Gymdesk if you run a martial arts school and want belt/rank tracking, or if you want flat tier pricing that does not move every time your roster changes. Pick WodGuru if your member count fluctuates and you want the bill to fall with it — or if you want to start completely free.
Choose Gymdesk if…
- You run a martial arts school (BJJ, MMA, karate, taekwondo) and want belt/rank tracking built in
- You want a flat monthly bill that does not recalculate every time members join or leave
- You want built-in door access and a branded app as optional add-ons, not a separate integration
Choose WodGuru if…
- Your member count fluctuates and you want the bill to scale down as well as up
- You want to start completely free (up to 10 members) before paying anything
- You want the single lowest predictable bill in the category — capped at $249/mo at any size
