The app was designed to benefit both trainers and trainees alike by empowering both parties to meet their goals. The app integrates with [Apple Watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-app) and the Apple Workouts, and includes [gamification features and leaderboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tae-bo-reboot-app) to help users set and meet goals. Trainees can get interactive 1-on-1 coaching and support from an accepting fitness community. Trainers, on the other hand, can set their own pricing for group and individual sessions, including a la carte or subscription, and create a calendar of their group sessions and one-on-one availability. In addition, trainers also have the option to upload pre-recorded content and charge for these on-demand sessions as they please.
