The only switch that wins back your dormant members — instead of quietly losing them
You’re paying $299+/month for a platform that charges extra for branding, adds transaction fees on every class, and takes weeks to set up. SmartFront runs your studio — scheduling, members, coaches, retention — for a fraction of the cost. Free to start. See a real gym live →

You deserve better
There’s the $299/mo base plan. Then 2.9% + $0.30 on every class booking. Then the branded app add-on. A studio running 200 classes at $25 each is paying over $440/month just for software — before staff, rent, or equipment.

We don't believe in charging you for tools you need just to exist. Your client list, your calendar, and your booking page are basic infrastructure. You shouldn't pay rent for the keys to your own shop.
We make money when you scale. Our premium AI Business Agents handle the things that actually steal your time: filling late cancellations, following up with first-timers, and automating your inventory.
Native calendar that never overlaps and respects your breaks automatically.
Zero SmartFront branding on your client interface. It’s your brand, not a marketplace.
Full history, notes, and preferences for every client. Data you can export any time.
Automated reminders cut no-shows by 40%. When someone cancels, your AI booking agent fills the slot from your waitlist.
The difference between a landlord and a partner.

Your dormant members when you switch
The members who pay monthly but rarely come in
Mindbody sells you features. SmartFront connects them.
No forms. No settings pages. Talk to the AI and it sets everything up — your hours, services, staff, and booking link.
Mindbody → Settings → Data Export. Download your member list and class history as CSV. Takes 5 mins.
No dashboards to configure. Tell the AI your classes, coaches, and schedule — or paste your export. It sets everything up.
Your studio URL is live at your-gym.gym.smartfront.ai or your own domain. Drop it in your Instagram bio or link tree. Members can add it to their home screen — no app store needed.
Link your Stripe account for class bookings and memberships — no setup fee, no extra platform cut on your revenue. (Card processing is rolling out now; connect early and you’re first in line.)
The AI gives you a message to send your members. Most studios are fully switched within a week, with members re-enrolled in classes.
Send us your export and we'll do the migration for you in 48 hours — members, memberships, class packs, historical attendance. Free for every new gym customer.
Every other platform makes switching a silent purge of the members who pay every month but rarely come in. SmartFront turns that same moment into a win-back.
Migrate up, not down.
Membership billing is built on Stripe Connect — included, not a per-feature upsell.
Not the right fit yet if:
You’re running a large multi-location fitness chain with 50+ staff, enterprise payroll, and complex franchise-level reporting. SmartFront is built for independent and boutique fitness operators. Enterprise franchise features are on the roadmap.
The cost
More than the headline price. The Accelerate plan is $299/mo — that’s $3,588/year before transaction fees. Add a branded app ($199/mo), SMS marketing, and payment processing fees and most mid-sized studios pay $6,000–$12,000/year. SmartFront starts free. AI automation is $29/mo.
Yes. Mindbody charges transaction fees on every payment processed through their system, on top of your monthly subscription. SmartFront uses Stripe rates with no markup — no extra platform cut on your revenue.
Mindbody’s branded app add-on lets you present a white-label experience to your members — otherwise, they’re booking through Mindbody’s interface with Mindbody’s name on it. SmartFront gives you a fully branded booking page on your own domain, included free.
The switch
Yes. Export your data as CSV from Mindbody Settings and our onboarding walks you through setup. Your members, class history, and purchase records all come with you.
No. Keep Mindbody running while you try SmartFront. Switch fully when you and your members are ready. No pressure, no deadline.
On most platforms, switching forces every member to re-authorize payment — and the dormant ones who pay monthly but rarely come in usually don’t bother, so you lose them. SmartFront shows you exactly which members are dormant and how much monthly revenue is at risk before you move, then sends a re-engagement offer to that cohort instead of letting them quietly lapse. You migrate with more active members, not fewer.
Setup takes under 30 minutes. Most studios have their first member booking within a day. Full migration — members re-enrolled, old platform wound down — typically takes a week.
The details
Class scheduling with coach assignment, recurring memberships, drop-in booking, waitlists, member profiles with class history, automated retention reminders, and an AI agent that handles booking inquiries over chat and SMS.
SmartFront is built specifically for owner-operated fitness businesses — yoga studios, CrossFit boxes, Pilates studios, boutique gyms. If you’re running a large multi-location franchise with enterprise reporting needs, Mindbody’s scale may still fit. For most owner-operators, SmartFront runs your studio better for a fraction of the cost.
The foundation is free — class scheduling, member management, branded booking page, automated reminders. No trial, no bait-and-switch. AI agents that automate your studio operations are $29/mo.
Your member data is encrypted, never shared, and never used to promote competitors. You own it fully and can export it anytime.
Keep Mindbody running while you try. Switch fully when you're ready.
