Coaches comparing Kahunas alternatives tend to weigh the same three things: what the monthly bill really comes to once currency conversion and add-on tools are counted, how much of the business actually runs inside the platform, and how painful a move would be.
Colossus is built as the whole stack. Training, nutrition, and check-ins sit next to billing, a prospect CRM, communities, and automations, so the tools your clients see and the tools that run your business share one login and one source of truth.
The whole operation on one subscription
The typical online coach runs four or five subscriptions: coaching software, a form builder, a community app, a scheduling link, and a payment tool. Each one adds monthly cost, and each seam between them is somewhere a client can fall through.
- Program builder with per-set RPE, RIR, tempo, and intensity
- Nutrition coaching against a 2.5M-item food database
- Structured check-ins with photos, habits, and body metrics
- Lead-gen forms, a prospect CRM, and a public storefront from Pro
- Coach-led communities with channels and moderation from Pro
- Workflow automations and phased client roadmaps
- Calendar, scheduling, and session booking for your clients
Local billing is the difference you feel monthly
Colossus pricing is set in rand: R499 Basic, R999 Pro, R1,499 Colossal, and R1,999 Studio per month, with 20% off on annual billing. No exchange-rate surprises on your card statement, and no mid-year price jump because a foreign currency moved.
Client revenue runs through Paystack with cards and EFT, settled in rand. The platform fee is 6% on Basic, 4% on Pro, and 2% on Colossal and Studio; Paystack processing (3.5% + R1 per charge) is passed through at cost and itemised on every payout. You keep everything else.
Built to keep clients past month three
Check-ins are structured and reviewable: photos, body metrics, habits, and training adherence in one weekly view. Voice notes keep feedback personal, and the story engine turns client PRs into shareable cards that market your coaching for you.
Communities give your client base a place to belong between sessions, with channels for wins and form checks, reactions, and report-based moderation. Clients who feel part of something stay longer, and the platform does the plumbing.
Moving over takes a week
The guided data importer takes a CSV or spreadsheet export, maps the fields, and gives you a 24-hour undo. The 7-Day Coach Migration Sprint sequences the rest: clients on day one, your first package on day two, your top program on day three, then storefront, booking, and payments.
You keep coaching the whole time, nothing goes offline while you move, and the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the entire experiment.
