Looking for software your own team runs? See the FitStat gym software, from ₹24,000 per branch a year. FitStat Ops is the service on top: our team does the work for you.

What We Are

FitStat Ops is FitStat's managed operations service for gyms. We run the back-office of independent fitness studios — payroll, compliance, tech, and reporting — regardless of which software the gym already uses. We fit around you, not the other way around.

We operate visibly or silently depending on what each gym needs. At Fit Formula we're fully branded. At others, we're the invisible engine. Either way, the service is identical.

FitStat Ops is one of six things FitStat runs today, alongside our own gym (FitStat Nagasandra), the FitStat gym software, a personal training marketplace, community events & challenges, and apartment/society training programs — see the full picture on our About page.

The Model — Three Layers of Value

01

Tech Stack

The Engine

We work with whatever CRM and tools the gym already has — YDL, Kore, or nothing. We configure, integrate, and manage the tech layer. You don't manage vendors. We do.

02

Operations

The Service

Monthly management of the back-office — trainer payroll with TDS, compliance calendars, staff HR, cohort programming, and owner reporting that actually makes sense.

03

Intelligence

The Edge

The FitStat intelligence layer connects to the gym's existing CRM data and adds what no CRM shows: TDS-adjusted payroll, partner revenue-share, cohort retention, compliance alerts.

Brand Stance — Three Commercial Tracks

Every gym is different. Some want to shout that they're professionally managed. Others need complete operational discretion. FitStat accommodates all three stances under separate commercial agreements.

Track 1

Branded Partner

"Powered by FitStat" fully visible

↳ Live example: e.g. Fit Formula

Standard rate card. FitStat branding earns us visibility and referrals — we share that benefit with the client through the best pricing.

Standard MSA Standard rate card FitStat visible everywhere

Track 2

Negotiated

Branding agreed case by case

Standard rate card. Branding visibility is agreed in the MSA branding clause — it's a goodwill conversation, not a price driver. NDA optional.

MSA with branding clause Standard rate card Visibility: TBD per gym

Track 3

White-Label

FitStat completely invisible

Premium rate card. White-label engagements carry higher ops discipline, zero referral benefit for FitStat, and formal confidentiality obligations. Separate NDA + white-label MSA required before engagement starts.

Separate NDA White-label MSA FitStat never mentioned Premium rate card

Questions about managed operations

What's the difference between the software and managed operations?

The Standard and Premium plans are the FitStat gym software, which your own team runs: we set your gym up with you, you try it free for 14 days and pay per branch, quarterly, half-yearly, yearly or for 2 or 3 years. Ops Setup, Ops Managed and Ops Partner are services where FitStat's team does the work for you. You can add a service on top of the software at any time.

We use Kore App, not YDL. Can you still manage our operations?

Yes. FitStat is CRM-agnostic. We build a Kore adapter that connects to your existing data and feeds our payroll engine, P&L reporting, and compliance tools. You don't switch CRMs. We connect to what you have.

What does white-label actually mean in practice?

FitStat's name never appears — not to your members, not to your staff, not publicly. All reports, emails, and communications go out under your gym's name or a neutral identity. We sign a formal NDA and a white-label MSA before the engagement begins. A separate premium rate card applies to reflect the additional overhead and zero referral benefit for FitStat.

For Track 2 (negotiated) — what does the branding clause actually say?

The standard MSA includes a branding clause with a blank field for the agreed stance — ranging from "FitStat not mentioned publicly" to "co-branded on digital materials only." It's agreed during onboarding and can be revised with 30 days notice. Rate card doesn't change based on this clause.

What if my CRM has no API or export function?

We fall back to a structured CSV export pipeline — your CRM admin exports data monthly, uploads it to a shared folder, and our system processes it. Less elegant but fully functional. We've designed the system specifically so the downstream outputs (payroll, P&L, compliance) are identical regardless of how data arrives.

How is white-label pricing different from standard?

White-label engagements typically carry a 20–30% premium over the standard rate card. This reflects: higher ops discipline (no FitStat-branded shortcuts), the absence of referral or brand-building value for FitStat, and the legal overhead of an NDA + bespoke MSA. Exact premium is agreed during the proposal stage.

Do you run social media and WhatsApp for the gym as well?

Yes — as an optional add-on from Ops Managed upward. We don't replace your staff's content creation — they shoot and create, we approve, schedule, and maintain consistency. For WhatsApp, we manage three separate groups: members, trainers, and leads, each with a distinct communication approach. For white-label clients (Track 3), we operate entirely under the gym's identity — FitStat never appears in posts, comments, or group messages, and a dedicated SOP governs this.

We already have someone managing our Instagram. Can we still add just WhatsApp community management?

Yes. The Community & Social add-on can be scoped to WhatsApp-only if Instagram and Facebook are already covered. Pricing adjusts accordingly — typically ₹5,000–₹7,000/month for WhatsApp group management alone. Confirm scope on the onboarding call.

Who This Is For

✅ Perfect Fit

  • Independent gym or fitness studio, 1–3 locations
  • 50–500 active members
  • 2–15 trainers on payroll or contract
  • Owner currently doing ops themselves or with one front-desk staff
  • Any CRM — YDL, Kore, Excel, or nothing at all
  • Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune — Tier 1 Indian cities

❌ Not a Fit

  • Large chains with a dedicated ops manager on payroll
  • Studios already running a professional back-office team
  • Gyms unwilling to share operational data with FitStat
  • Single-trainer home studios under 30 members
  • Owners looking for a software login only, not a managed service
