PT Distinction
By PT Distinction Ltd
PT Distinction is a leading online coaching platform created specifically for personal trainers, fitness professionals, and small gyms. It's all-in-one software enables users to manage every aspect of a personal training business—from program creation and scheduling to nutrition planning, communications, payments, and progress tracking. Noted for its seamless user interface and white-label branding, PT Distinction empowers trainers to deliver personalized coaching to clients worldwide, both in-person and online.
PT Distinction was founded in 2013 by Tim Saye (a personal trainer) and Adam (a software developer). The company’s origin story is rooted in tackling the challenges of delivering high-quality, scalable coaching remotely. After experiencing the inefficiency of general-purpose tools for online training, the founders developed the first version of PT Distinction to create a results-driven, user-friendly coaching platform. The company is headquartered in the UK, remains privately held, and has gradually expanded its team with elite software designers and fitness industry experts. PT Distinction has achieved strong, organic growth, now serving thousands of coaches and being consistently rated as a top software in its niche
