Setmore Is for Appointments.
We're Built for Classes.
Setmore is an excellent general-purpose scheduling tool — perfect for hair salons, dentists, and consultants who need 1:1 appointment booking. But fitness studios don't run on 1:1 appointments. You run classes with capacity limits, waitlists, multi-room schedules, and recurring memberships.
Who's In Studio is purpose-built for group fitness. Set up your rooms, assign instructors, configure class capacities, sell class packs and memberships — all from $15.83/mo. Your students book with no app download required.
